Singapore's Changi Airport food court now saves travelers the trouble of having to go outside in search of the best street food, as it gathered up all the best local vendors and gave them a place to sell their wares indoors. The food court now features over 200 of the country's best local dishes, including everything from 'Cheng Bak Kut Teh' (pork rib soup) to noodles in a spicy peanut sauce and beef noodles.
The airport food court has been dubbed 'Singapore Food Street' and it spans over 10,000'. This alone is reason enough not to complain about being stuck at the airport, since there are so many authentic foods from across Singapore to try, without even having to venture outside of Changi Airport's terminal three. It's really no wonder that the airport has been named the World's Best Airport two years in a row.
