Online wet market delivery in Singapore
With all the planning, racing and jostling, getting fresh groceries from wet markets in Singapore might as well be an official sport. After all, mama shops near you don’t sell fresh food and the supermarket lines are just as long and the food isn’t as fresh.
But before you resign to surviving on canned food, here are 13 online wet markets that deliver so you can get your fill of kampung chicken, ocean-fresh fish, and yong tau foo all delivered straight to your doorstep.
