Join us to celebrate Singapore National Day in Seattle! Come and enjoy an evening of chats with old and new friends, over delicious food items loved by many in Singapore and Malaysia. We’ll have a mini-hawker fair with delicious delights from home cooks around the Seattle area. Along with the Singapore staples of nasi lemak and chicken rice, we’re likely to have carrot cake, kueh, bubur cha cha and plenty more of our favourite foods.
Details of food vendors will be announced soon and you may order from and pay directly to them.
Along with the flag, we’ll recite the pledge, sing the National Anthem and hear stories from folks who have lived in Singapore and the US.
