Those of you looking for more sedentary fun, head over to the Marina Bay Area for feasting and shopping, with over 30 food and retail stalls. Called the Escapade, this food haven is perfect for indulging in festive feasts and last-minute Christmas shopping.

Here are 10 mouth-watering snacks you can get from the stalls:

1. Colourful Fried Chicken (from Lao Niang)

If there’s one thing you need to get at carnivals, it’s fried food.

Lao Niang serves up crispy fried chicken cutlets in rainbow colours—perfect for the ‘gram, and for your belly.

2. Huge Fries (from Big Big Fries)

What’s better than a pack of fries? A pack of jumbo fries, of course.

Satisfy your craving for fries with Big Big Fries, and their larger-than-life fries which come with toppings like mayo, cheese, seaweed, and more.

3. Fried Chicken Skin (from Oddball)

The best part of fried chicken has got to be the skin.

So, Oddball is giving you all the fried chicken skin you could possibly want! Mmm, just think about that greasy, crispy crackle when you bite into a piece.

4. Salted Egg Mac & Cheese (from Chill Baby)

Mac ‘n’ cheese is the ultimate comfort food, but you know what they say, there’s always room for improvement.
