Why Singapore Excels in Vegan Dining
- Culinary creativity: From Peranakan-Thai fusions to minimalist raw creations and Korean street-food twists, the diversity is astounding.
- Inclusivity & wellness: Many eateries cater to dietary restrictions (gluten-free, halal, no onions/garlic), which means everyone can find something to enjoy.
- Community & accessibility: The Vegetarian Society (Singapore) supports plant-based conversation and connection in the city-state .
Local insight:
“There are a good amount of vegetarian restaurants around… Fortune Centre is a great place with so many vegetarian and vegan options all in the same building.”
