Hungry?

Walk along the streets of Jalan Kayu,
Grab some Prata for a dollar or two.
Just plain with onions or with eggs,
A spoonful of curry would taste equally great
Couple it up with a cup of Teh Tareh,
A breakfast that that will spice up your day

Head down to Maxwell Market near Chinatown,
Get a taste of the famous Cha Kuay Teow.
The long queues though are a sore to the eye,
But we just want our chicken rice!
Otherwise hop to the Mee Pok stall
Lunch will be the same no more.

Asking what’s for dinner tonight?
I’ll treat you to some crabby delight!
Chilli or Pepper don’t bother
Cos they is gonna be a sumptuous dinner!


Just before you end this day
Just before you go to bed,
Are you craving for something light?
Let me drive you to Rochor Road
For some Tao Huay to smooth your throat.

So look at our marvelous good galore
So much to offer!
This is Singapore, our Makan Sutra!
