Singapore Food Trail is the city’s latest addition to its long list of hawker centers, though this particular center clearly stands out from the crowd. 
Located near the Singapore Flyer, the city’s massive Ferris wheel on the harbor, Singapore Food Trail is a collection of 17 different hawkers who have run successful businesses for decades at various venues throughout town. Some of them have been around for as long as 60 years, successfully passing their recipes down from generation to generation. 
According to a report by Channel News Asia, Select Group Limited invested 2 million Singapore dollars ($1.6 million) in the Food Trail project and the food centre opened last february.
It is not just the authentic food that makes the Singapore Food Trail worth a visit. It is the overall atmosphere that gives visitors the feeling they have traveled back in time. The food stalls are lined up next to each other on a tarmac street, with simple tables and chairs from the 1960s to create the proper ambiance. Old street signs and boards give the venue vintage flair, as does a retro, and still functional, jukebox. To complete the “good old days” feel, other vintage pieces such as old radios, typewriters and an old rickshaw can be spotted around the center. Even the provided cutlery and cups seem to
hail from decades past. A little shop selling nostalgic knick-knacks, including clocks, gramophones, magazines and tea pots, is given a prominent spot in the middle of the hawkers’ pushcarts.
