South African Shop in Singapore

Wendy Hill

 

Good news! There is a little piece of South Africa in Singapore! On a recent visit to Singapore I had the pleasure of meeting Janet Smith at "The Springbok Bazaar" in Singapore and received a warm welcome. Janet and her husband Paul own and run this little piece of heaven which stocks a wide variety of South African food and wine. The shop has everything your little South African heart (and stomach) could desire - Ouma rusks, mielie meal, Jungle Oats, Pronutro, Mrs Balls Chutney, Trim mayonnaise, Steers sauces, spices, a wide range of choccies & sweets, Five Roses Tea, rooibos tea, tennis biscuits, caramel treat, biltong, wine, Appletiser, Savannah, cream soda .......... the list goes on. The shop is located at 112 East Coast Road, #04-06 Katong Mall, S428802 (on the east coast which is the airport side of town). Janet can be contacted at janet.smith@africasiatrading.com or tel: 6345 6401. You may wonder why I am mentioning this shop when we are based in Thailand ... I know a number of you go to Singapore on business regularly and nothing will make your partner happier than a little (or large) package of SA goodies! (PS. I do have some brochures which include a map so contact me if you want one).
