Event Description

Heritage Herbal & TCM Food Tour – 3.5 Hours

Explore the healing traditions of Singapore through food, flavor, and philosophy. This 3.5-hour guided experience invites guests to discover how Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles shape everyday eating, from hawker stalls to heritage corners.

Starting at Maxwell MRT Exit 2, the tour begins with an introduction to TCM’s approach to balance, digestion, and seasonal wellness. Guests sample herbal teas, cooling soups, and energizing snacks while learning how ingredients are chosen to harmonize the body’s energy.

At Hong Lim Hawker Centre, the journey deepens with 4–5 curated tastings of health-focused dishes and drinks. Your guide shares insights into yin-yang pairing, food energetics, and the cultural stories behind each bite.

The final hour includes a short heritage walk to nearby spots with TCM relevance, followed by tonic desserts, warming broths, or fermented brews. Guests leave with practical tips for applying TCM wisdom to modern meals, and a deeper appreciation for Singapore’s living food culture.

Whether you’re wellness-curious or simply hungry for something meaningful, this tour offers a grounded, flavorful experience of tradition, taste, and thoughtful eating.
