Enjoy meals at small-scale local Balestier restaurants
In the past, this part of town was one of Singapore's commercial hubs, with endless warrens of stalls and shops selling fresh vegetables, spices, clothing and much more. These days, the market has been eclipsed by newer developments, but the dynamism remains, and it's best expressed by the huge range of restaurants in Balestier. What's great about the area is that these Balestier restaurants have slotted into the low rise market district, which has now become a little slice of foodie heaven.
