To The Moon

March 31 is the Hari Raya public holiday in Singapore! As one of the major holidays in the country, it brings with it a rich tradition of gathering with family and friends, wearing traditional outfits, and, of course, enjoying a wide array of delicious food. During Ramadan, Muslims fast from dawn until sunset, refraining from food and drink. This discipline helps them empathize with the less fortunate and emphasizes generosity. For Muslims, this holiday is like "New Year," marking the end of the fasting month. The warmth of food is always on time! Don't forget to say "Selamat Hari Raya" to your Malay friends! One of the most iconic parts of Hari Raya is the food! From traditional sweets like Kueh Koci, Kueh Lapis and Dodol (a chewy coconut dessert) to savory treats like Cucur Bawang (fried dough with shrimp), the celebration is a feast for the senses. Many families also enjoy Pulut Tai-Tai (blue butterfly pea rice), which are delicacies that add color and flavor to the table. What’s your favorite dish during Hari Raya Puasa?
