Stan was an exceptional host and guide throughout our food tour in Singapore. From the moment we began, he brought not only warmth and kindness, but also an impressive depth of knowledge about the city’s diverse culinary landscape. His passion for Singaporean food, history, and culture was infectious, and he had a remarkable ability to weave storytelling into each stop—turning every dish into a window into the city’s heritage. What stood out most was how attentive and thoughtful he was with everyone in the group, making sure each person felt welcome and engaged. Whether explaining the origins of hawker traditions, pointing out subtle details in regional cooking styles, or offering local insights that only someone with deep roots could provide, Stan went above and beyond to make the experience both delicious and meaningful. It was more than just a food tour—it felt like walking the city with an old friend who wanted to share everything he loved about it. I would wholeheartedly recommend any experience led by Stan.

The tour was great. Lots of interesting food and interesting sights along the way. My guide , Stan, was exceptional. He quickly gauged what I was interested in and type of food I preferred. I'm especially grateful that he sympathized with my failings with the SG subway system, both explaining where I went wrong and arranging meet me at a different location. Highly recommended.

Fantastic tour with Jon. Highly recommend. He was entertaining and funny and had so many stories to teach us about the history of Singapore to go along with the delicious food. He listened to our dietary requests and showed us an amazing time.
