I am tagging along with DH on a business trip to Singapore next month, with our two DS's, aged 5 and 2. So far, so fab.
DS 5 has multiple food allergies - eggs, all nuts, sesame, kiwi and peas/pulses. Tedious, but we've figured out how to eat out at home. Eating out - a bit more complicated. We'll be staying in an apartment, and I know you can get practically anything at Cold Storage and wet markets, so I will do a fair bit of cooking at the flat.
BUT - Hawker centres! Food courts! Fine dining! That was the part of Singapore I always loved pre-DCs. If I have to spend a week eating toast and tomato pasta I can't vouch for my actions
How do you find food allergies are handled in Singapore restaurants? Are waitstaff understanding of allergy diners? Do you find you get proper help to avoid danger foods? Are hawker centres too much of a risk? Any advice gratefully received
TIA :)
