Where do you buy your monthly groceries?

I will be moving to Singapore from India in a weeks time. We have taken up a place in Bayshore Raod, East Coast. Is there any south indian shops close by? Can I get the groceries home delivered? Can anyone help please?

Thank you Rani. This gives me great confidence. We will be staying in a hotel and would set up the house in the meantime. I will keep posting a lot of queries whenever I need help. Thanks a ton.

Hi All,

It has been a long time since i visited IL and i was very happy to find the thread for singilites as earlier there were hardly one or two posts.
I have been buying my groceries from Selvi mills for almost 1 1/2 yrs the prices r ok and quality is good and they usually they tell u the day and time when they will deliver (which is usually 2 days from the date of order) and sometime if require them to deliver earlier they do that also.
I have just shifted to sengkang and( i am searching for a shop to buy veggies..can anyone just good shop in sengkang) we have fairprice nearby but the choice is very ltd and the quality also is not good.

Bye TC
Ramya

Hi ramya

Senkang do not have grocery shops/wet markets like other areas. Depending on the location in senkarg, there is NTUC in the rivervale side, Prime Supermarket at Compassvale, Rivervale plaza and a small wetmarket at the other end. and a NTUC at fernvale too. For Indian veggies take the MRT to little India. You can also take the free shuttle to punggol plaza where you can get varieties.

happy shopping!

hi

thanks vijee for the info ..y'day went to punggol plaza there is a indian grocery shop where we can all indian stuff though it is a little expensive..they had indian vegetables also but they were not fresh.But it helps to know that u have a indian shop near by where we can buy once a while rather going to LI or mustafa all the way.There is a wet mkt also though it closes in afternoon.

dear all,
I live in chongpong area in Yishun.I am able to get most of my vegetables from near by shops.For ponni rice and Amul slim and trim milk ,also some pulses ,I buy from Abdul Rahim stores from upper dickens road, Little India..They are good.They are also selling snacks from the famous "Grand sweets".

Hello Everybody

We have moved to Singapore a fortnight ago from europe. Can anybody pls tell me what brand of Milk is widely used here? and also is Fresh milk better of UHT? Also what do you all do for Curd? Do you set it at home or buy it readymade. I am used to buying it readymade in Europe as becos of the cold weather it does not set properly. I am sure that problem does not exist here, but do let me know if i need to set the curd, should i boil the milk or is it enough if i just warm it.

Tks a ton

hello sunshine123

we use meiji brand milk here, itsa good quality product,some people use amul milk but i preffer meiji brand -i dont have any idea about amul milk.as far as curd is concerned ,u can make it at home also ,for that u need to use milk containing fat,and i suggest u to first boil it and then try to make it or u can use readymade curd/yogurt also.it is also of good quality ,and i feel nestle is good ,
