The Best Indian Restaurants In Singapore

Singapore is one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world. Many Indians have migrated to this tropical nation and brought their rich cultural heritage with them. As a result, Singapore has a huge range of fantastic Indian restaurants. There is an area of the city named Little India, where the majority of the Indian community are living in. Here’s our guide to exploring some of the best Indian cuisine in Singapore.
