Food for Thought: Furen International School’s Omakase Outing
Singapore, a culinary melting pot, offers an abundance of gastronomic delights and historic sites. One of the most popular activities for Furen International School students is a unique take on omakase—where the teacher, rather than the chef, selects the menu. This exciting twist allows students to savour exquisite fare at a landmark location. The latest outing took them to Lau Pa Sat, nestled in the heart of the financial district near Raffles Place.
This outing provided a triple treat: a visit to Singapore’s bustling financial hub, an exploration of one of the city’s oldest hawker centres, and a feast of delectable treats curated by Teacher Sammie. Dating back to 1825, Lau Pa Sat stands as a vibrant cultural hub, offering a rich tapestry of history and culinary tradition.
As students explored the iconic food haven, they not only indulged in Singapore’s renowned street food but also soaked in the ambiance of this historic market. The outing was a delightful blend of education, culture, and cuisine, leaving students with lasting memories and a deeper appreciation for Singapore’s rich heritage.
