Singapore’s birthday is just around the corner, and no celebration is complete without some proper feasting. This August, celebrate National Day with Feast at Sentosa, where you’ll find hawker classics at RWS Street Eats, restaurant discounts, performances and movie screenings, and even the longest BBQ pit in Singapore. Here are the highlights!
I love a good ol’ barbeque, so Sentosa’s Kaki BBQ has got me all heated up. From 8 to 12 Aug 2018, you’ll get to cook your own sizzling meals during this DIY grilling event held at Palawan Green on Palawan Beach.
The pits, food and cutlery have already been prepared, and all you need to do is choose from meats ranging from marinated Angus striploin steak to Cajun lamb chop, before throwing them onto your own fiery grill. Sambal stingray, satay, and more will be available. If you prefer to sit back and enjoy the tasty work of professionals, there’ll be chefs around to do the barbequing for you too. Prices for the food start at $1.50.
You’ll even get a shot at making it into the national records. At 6pm on 9 Aug, there will be an attempt to set the record for the most number of people barbequing at the longest BBQ pit in Singapore.
As night falls, gather your barbequed treats and get cosy on the field, because that’s when the beachside movie screenings start. If you’re lucky, you might even get to catch the National Day Parade flypast during your seaside picnic.

Here, the two of you can enjoy a candlelit Dinner Under The Stars, surrounded by palm trees and an oh-so-romantic view of the sunset that’s sure to get you into his or her good books. Plus, before 12 Aug 2018, you’ll each get a complimentary wine pairing (U.P $34++) with your reservation.
