Think 50 cents can’t buy you nuts in Singapore? Well, that’s a lie. Local hawkers will be dishing out all time favourites like Paper Wrapped Chicken and Satay Bee Hoon to some unique long lost dialect recipes such as the Hokkien Rickshaw Noodle, Red Glutinous Wine Chicken, and the Hakka Abacus Seed.
