For those looking for one last taste of Singapore cuisine before leaving this beautiful tropical island, be sure to check out Prima Taste in Terminal 3 at the airport.

Prima Taste restaurants and kitchens offer a variety of signature Singaporean dishes, along with selling a wide assortment of boxed curry and spice mixes to prepare these tasty dishes at home.

Location of Prima Taste at Changi Airport

Prima Taste Kitchen is located on the second level in Terminal 3 of the airport. When passing through customs, there are escalators leading to the second floor with a selection of quick bites and sit down eats before heading off to the airport gates.

Although more of a sit down establishment, Prima Taste is fast and still a viable option for those looking for a quick bite.

What is Prima Taste Kitchen and Restaurant

Prima Taste started by selling ready-to-cook pastes and spice packets to make Singaporean cuisine. Eventually they decided to open a concept restaurant franchise to showcase their excellent products.

Prima Taste notes their restaurants reflect the history, culture, and modernity of Singapore, serving customers a unique dining experience. The restaurant has been in business since 1999 and the chain has expanded to a number of locations around the world, including locations in Taiwan, China, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia.

The company is proud of the reputation they have built for authentic tastes, rich flavours, and premium quality ingredients. Their signature dishes rank among the best representations of Singapore's famed local cuisine.

Singapore Specialty Dishes Offered

Prima Taste notes the top 10 signature dishes on their menu, and a board behind the counter denotes the 5 most popular within those top 10.

One of the most popular items is the Singapore Chicken Curry. During the early days of Singapore trade, many immigrants brought curry from India. Over time, many versions and styles have evolved based on the cross-cultural influences present in Singapore. This Singapore curry has a rich gravy infused with coconut milk, with a fragrant aroma. Filled with large chunks of chicken and potatoes, this is definitely a great menu choice.

Another recommended signature dish is the Prawn Noodle. This popular noodle dish emerged in Singapore's Chinatown back in the early 1950's. Also called Prawn Mae, it has remained one of Singapore's favourite dishes. Prawn Mae can be served dry with the broth on the side, or mixed in with the noodles. The broth has a very rich flavor stemming from the prawn, pork, and spices during cooking.

The menu at Prima Taste is varied and provides a great selection of delicious Singapore specialties, at reasonable prices. Many dishes are around $10 SGD (around $7.15 in USD based on current exchange rates).
