Eat your way into Singapore’s soul.

Curated food walks with your personal local storyteller.

Singapore’s legendary hawker culture is so deeply woven into our global heritage that it is officially inscribed by UNESCO. Every dish offers a masterclass in flavor: from Chinese, Malay, and Indian staples to intricate Peranakan, Eurasian, and contemporary fusion masterpieces.

But in a city of thousands of stalls, how do you discover the truly exceptional? Let me curate that journey for you. Beyond the plate, I’ll help you uncover the profound backstories of migration, method, memory, and multi-generational family traditions in every delicious, mouthwatering bite.

Come hungry, leave transformed.

Hello, I’m the Geeky Glutton.

I’m a third-generation Singaporean whose lifelong love of flavours started in my Teochew-Peranakan grandmother's kitchen.

I’ve spent a decade curating bespoke heritage food experiences, helping travellers and locals uncover Singapore's living tapestry of migration history, deep-rooted rituals, and human stories beyond the plate.

Join me, your personal tour architect and food storyteller, for a journey through Singapore’s glorious flavours, one bite and one plate at a time.

The Geeky Glutton Experience

Discover why my walking tours are one of the most curated and bespoke food experiences in Singapore.

  • A Geeky Glutton experience usually spans 4 hours but there is no one-size-fits-all-approach.

    Whether an express 2-hour edition, a full day immersion or a multi-day adventure, I can tailor the journey to your appetite, interest and paces.

  • Food heritage, food-and-architecture, exotic eats, or a bar-hopping trail… what’s wetting your appetite? 

    Share your curiosities and cravings and I will propose a bespoke experience designed specially for you and your group.

  • Venture beyond the usual food hotspots to uncover hidden gems and neighbourhood favourites - some even unknown to the locals.

    From hawker centres and “kopitiams” to cafés, bakeries and Michelin-recognised establishments, discover Singapore one delicious detour at a time.

  • Every plate, bowl and cup has a story to tell. 

    Through friendly and interactive storytelling, discover the origins of your favourite foods, the culinary techniques behind them and the people that bring them to life.

Limited Tour Series

100 Years of Chinatown’s Secret History

What if you could explore heritage as someone who once lived it?

To mark the 100th anniversary of Keong Saik Road’s naming in 2026, heritage specialist Alvin Chia and food storyteller Aldric Tan, aka Geeky Glutton, have come together for an exclusive collaboration to curate Singapore’s first-ever interactive food heritage experience where guests experience firsthand, the roles of historical characters to relive the hidden stories of one of Chinatown’s most iconic streets.

This heritage experience strips away the polished veneer of modern Chinatown to honor the raw resilience, defiance, and survival of the women who once ruled these streets.

You won't simply hear their stories. You will step into them.

Don’t miss this limited immersive experience.
