Run by three young chefs at Golden Mile Food Centre, Burgs is popular for their burgers that are not just finger lickin’ good but also affordable. If you haven’t had a chance to try The Classic Burger ($6.50) made of freshly minced Australian beef, this weekend is the time. For those who don’t fancy beef, they will also be serving Barbeque Chicken Burger ($6.50) and Chicken Parmigiana Burger ($6.50). Every burger comes with a side of Onion Rings, but if you’d like a portion of that on its own, you can also get it at $4!

If carnival food reminds you only of unhealthy and overpriced fare, visit Ah Lock Tofu when you’re at the festival. Check out their Ah Lock Tofu Bowl ($6.50), which is a rice bowl topped with minced pork belly-stuffed bean curd, chopped chilli, long beans, seaweed, and a soybean-based sauce. Mix the Japanese short-grain rice up with the toppings and you will have a hearty meal to go!

This was our favourite when we tried it at the Prudential Marina Bay Carnival and if there’s one thing you cannot miss when you’re at Glowbeat x *SCAPE, it would be Katoshka’s Russet Fries with Sour Ranch ($5.90). Served in a cup, Katoshka serves hand-cut fries accompanied by a variety of house-made sauces – Sour Ranch, Chili Beef, Special Cheese, and Sambal Cheese.
