If there is just one restaurant you have time to eat at in Singapore, make it Folklore at the Destination Hotel on Beach Road. Singaporean-Eurasian chef Damian D’Silva at his prime. Local food never tasted so good as here at the moment.
Damian D’Silva was in Penang during the recent George Town Festival - his offerings there, though a small subset of his full repertoire in Singapore, was enough to send Penangites into raptures.
Damian D’Silva’s kueh bengkah, the local tapioca dessert, akin to pone in the Caribbean and bibinca in Goa, India, was the richest, most delicious rendition of the dessert I’d ever had. Never, ever miss ordering this if you are at Folklore.
