Having been an international trading hub since before independence, the traditions and customs of Singapore have been largely influenced by the settlers and immigrants. The advent of new cuisines and flavours has shaped Singapore’s food culture over the years.
Fast forward to today and Singapore’s food culture has evolved to fit the palette of the community, forming what we proudly call, uniquely Singaporean dishes.
Anyone who knows KOKA knows that we have been steeped in Singaporean tradition since our inception. We have always created our noodles with an eagerness to share the rich culture and the unique character of Singaporean cuisine with the world. From one noodle lover to another, here are some of the top true-blue Singaporean noodle dishes:
