Our pick
Chinatown or Little India for food in Singapore?
Pick Chinatown for hawker-centre meals and Little India for a sit-down lunch of south Indian and north Indian dishes. Both are easy to walk on foot. We'd eat at Maxwell Food Centre for a first meal in Chinatown, and give Little India its own evening. The Little India guide has the streets to walk.
