Geylang Serai’s Ramadan Bazaar Rides the Return Wave
Spring has sprung and the Geylang Serai Ramadan Bazaar is back in full bloom—more vibrant than ever and ready to give you the Instagram‑packed culinary experience you crave. It’s no longer just about the mouth‑watering delights; it’s about shots that make your feed pop.
The “Gram‑Goal” Hunt
We set out on a treasure hunt to discover dishes that look strikingly spectacular on your screen, cost less than a fancy latte, and taste as good as they appear. After all, nobody wants photos that end up in the trash bin.
Top Pick: Flaming Unicorn
- Price: $9.90
- What Makes It Shine: A rainbow‑inspired plate that feels like a unicorn just hit the runway—bright, bold, and impossible to ignore.
- Your Takeaway: Snap a photo, relish the flavor, and keep it—no waste, no sorrow.
More Gems Await!
While the Flaming Unicorn has the spotlight, there are plenty of other treats waiting for you. Stick around and keep your eyes peeled for more Instagram‑worthy delights that pair happiness with your wallet’s safety.
Flashy Treats at CLEO Singapore
At the bustling CLEO Singapore event, a dessert that literally ignites the night made its way onto the spotlight. Picture this: an ice‑cream sundae with a flaming torch perched right atop it for a thrilling five seconds. Watch your taste buds pop off the menu—literally—before the blaze gets swapped for a pink balloon that pops onto the photo’s frame.
Why the Fire?
We asked the booth wizard what the whole blaze was about, and he hit us with the classic “For Instagram.” It’s the ultimate foodie hack: a one‑second theatrical ribbon that turns a bite into a headline.
Quick Burn Warning
- Ice cream melts faster than a selfie’s “like” count.
- Heat preserves flavor in an instant, but not for the whole dessert.
- Grab it before the chill takes over.
Next Up: Rainbow Grill Cheese Toast
While everyone’s eyes are on the fiery dessert, a sassy “Rainbow Grill Cheese Toast” is also making waves for just $5. If you’re looking for a bite that’s crispy, cheesy, and photogenic, this is your ticket. Take a bite, raise a toast to the rainbow!
Grilled Cheese So Good, It Almost Needs a Trophy
When CLEO Singapore rolled out its latest street‑food gem, we were play‑acting our own “low expectations” motto—think “just looking good in Instagram stories.”
What Went Down
- Golden toast that could double as a breakfast ceremony.
- Cheese that melts like a waterfall but still keeps that cheesy drip‑stop confidence.
- Butter so smooth it oozes… but not too much that you drown in dairy.
In one bite, you get crusty, mashed‑buttery, and a melty cheese highway all in a single sandwich. The fluff‑like crunch meets the goo‑goo inside like a hug from your favorite childhood snack.
Why It’s a Must‑Try
We’re talking about a snack that might just be the secret to making your morning caffeine routine feel like a celebration. Pure comfort that’s on‑point for any time of day.
Save a Few Rings
Don’t be tempted to keep scooping the endless cheese—grab a fork and share this culinary love. The next time you crave something “normal,” remember this grilled cheese is the perfect reminder that simple can be legendary.
Ice Cream Taco Bonanza!
What’s Inside the Sweet Shell?
Picture a taco that’s more dessert than snack – silky vanilla ice cream, airy whipped cream, and a rainbow‑sprinkled cloud of joy. That’s the one the store’s sign’s bragging about, and trust us, the rest of the lineup is going to mess with your Instagram A‑wesome mood.

Ever dreamt of a decadent, cookie‑filled snack that feels like a campfire adventure on a tray? The s’mores spread here has you covered—think a bowl of toasted marshmallows sitting pretty on a mound of chocolate sauce (yes, a generous pour of Nutella) with some crunchy biscuits nestled beside them.
Sweet vs. Savory: A Taste‑Tug‑of‑War
- Marshmallow Marvel: Toasted to that golden‑brown perfection, the marshmallows bring the classic campfire sweetness that’s practically edible nostalgia.
- Nutella Note: While the chocolate sauce was a little stiff (probably because it had a spare minute to chill), it still dove in the sweet flavor punch that mirrors the hops of a creamy mint soda.
- Crackle Crunch: The biscuits add a savory bite that balances the sugar rush—pure deliciousness without feeling guilty.
Side Dish: Strawberry Butterfly Pea Drink
Compliment this treat with a $4 Strawberry Butterfly Pea tea—pretty, light green with a sweet berry twist—or the rich, earthy vibes of a Mr Q coffee. Either way, you’re in for an experience that’s both tasty and Instagram‑worthy!
Sip, Share, & Smile: The $4 Party Bottle
Grab a $4 splash that’s big enough to split among four friends—perfect for those spontaneous group hangouts.
Each bottle bursts with a rainbow of hues, and the flavors are as playful as the looks:
- Sunrise Rose Soda – a bright pink sunrise that feels like a toast to the morning.
- Passionfruit Rose Soda – tropical tang dressed up in rosy elegance.
- Green Apple Rose Soda – crisp apple vibes wrapped in a floral whisper.
- Strawberry Butterfly Pea Soda – a stunning purple gradient that’s as eye‑catching as it is delicious.
Heads up: it’s on the sweeter side, so if you’ve already indulged in three desserts, you might want to pace yourself or pick the less sugary option.
Cheers to a splash that’s as fun as it looks!
