It’s no secret that Singaporeans are famous for their love for food – now, there is an exhibition wholly dedicated to the act of eating. Explore the way we put food in our mouth, the cutlery we eat with, who we eat with, and the processes that happen back in the kitchen so that we can enjoy food the way we do. The exhibition will look at the objects that cook, contain and carry our food to shed light on some of the habits, quirks, and practices here in Singapore.

Asian Civilisations Museum, through museum hours. Admission is free

If just one exhibition on the act of eating is not enough, there will also be the I Was Here outdoor installation, which is inspired by the Empress Place Food Centre that was previously located in front of the Former Empress Place Building (now the Asian Civilisations Museum). The installation explores our unique food heritage through shared experiences, stories, relationships, space and time. Featuring 10 modern interpretations of familiar hawker seating of the past, the installation invites the public to reclaim the space and reimagine its purpose.
