Top 3 Must-See Seafood Restaurants in Tampines
[ad_1]
Tampines New Town, or simply Tampines among the locals, is one of the busiest districts in Singapore. It is known to be the largest residential area in the country with the population of 216,000 people, living in Housing and Development Board (HDB) flats. This area was once abundant with trees called Tampines, hence the name. It has become a residential area since the late 1970’s and the rapid growth of this district was unstoppable from then on.
Tampines is not only known for its peaceful yet fun neighborhoods, but it is also famous for various restaurants that can be found on almost every corner of the district. These restaurants come in different shapes and sizes, and offer different menu as well (Asian, Italian, French, American, and local recipes, among others).
With so many choices available, it is not so surprising that anyone can get overwhelmed. However, Singapore is known to be a seafood country, so might as well divulge in its seafood delicacies before anything else.
