Westies! This one is for you. If you’re getting jealous of all the sprawling pasar malams that spring up in the East or if you’re simply missing the food at the Geylang Bazaar, this is for you.

Come down to West Mall for the West Mall Outdoor Food Fair.

Taking place right outside the mall, this bazaar is a real treat for any food lover.

Indulge in some of the yummiest street food you can find here. If you’re craving something with meat, you have to try the flame grilled beef cubes which are grilled right in front of you.

For something a little more filling, stop by for a mouth-watering Turkish Kebab.

If you’re feeling a little fancy, why not try the Salmon Pizza which features square cubes of pizza topped generously with salmon.

And of course, no Pasar Malam is complete without the famous Ramly burgers. Make sure you head down to snag one of these sloppy and oh-so-delicious burgers.

End off your food adventures with some desert. The bazaar sells kaya balls and gorgeous crepes that are totally fit to go on your Instagram page.

The bazaar will be on from 5th July to 21 July so make sure you head on down!

Location: Open space outside West Mall
Address: 1 Bukit Batok Central Link, Singapore 658713
Date: 5 July-21 July
