Katong Travel Info

Slurp your way through Katong's signature dish

The little-known Katong district on Singapore's main island, centred around Joo Chiat Street, is not far from Changi International Airport.

The precinct was originally home to the first Peranakan settlers, who arrived from China from the 17th Century onwards. They married local Malays and Portuguese immigrants, and the resulting racial mix is one of the most intriguing in Asia.
