Amongst all the dishes in Singapore, my favourite one would definitely be the Hainanese chicken rice and Laksa. Chicken rice is singapore's unofficial national dish, and is a simple combination of roasted or steamed chicken atop a mound of rice cooked in rich chicken stock. And while this may sound easy to prepare-there is more to it than meets the eye. Connoisseurs also rate the quality of the chili sauce, ground ginger and dark soy accompaniments.
For laksa, it is a bowl of creamy curry goodness, with thick noodles, prawns, cockles and fishcake. The malay and chinese concoction is made from a paste of spice, herbs, dried shrimp, coconut milk and chili for that unmistakable fragrance and rich,subtle taste.
Personally, my favourite one among this two would be Chicken Rice.
