Singapore's disappearing trades tour
Learn how bread was made the old fashion way. Visit one of the oldest remaining traditional bakeries left in Singapore and taste the difference. Meet with one of the masters of paper objects that the Chinese use as an offering to their ancestors.
Start with a visit to a hidden gem - a coffee roasting factory. Learn about the local kopi industry, the tricks of the trade, roasting techniques, and a sampling of kopi 'O' or black coffee. Next, you'll visit two more disappearing trades, the first is the craftsman of a snack many locals don't even know about - sachima. You'll also visit the makers of the beloved pig ear's biscuit and cuttlefish snack.
Explore the oldest remaining traditional bakeries left in Singapore and taste the difference between mass-produced bread and old-school bread. Hear from the baker why this once thriving business is now a disappearing trade. Finally, hear firsthand from one of the masters of paper house making, how the Chinese pray and pay their respects to their ancestors by burning paper objects as a form of offering to the afterlife. Learn about this custom steeped in tradition and its modern manifestations.
