Beyond Coconuts and Kaya
- Another Cultural and Culinary Adventure of Katong™

Follow your nose... and our expert guide. Explore Katong’s amazing multicultural heritage and learn about its rich mix of Eurasian, Peranakan Chinese, Ceylonese, Jewish and Arab cultures. Sample some of Katong’s best-kept secrets – food from the Eurasian and Peranakan Chinese communities - too. Understand how Katong was transformed from an idyllic seaside village and plantation area to the vibrant and charming residential enclave it is today. Uncover along the way Katong’s other best-kept secret - a 130-year old British fort found buried under a park – and appreciate Katong’s early role in Singapore’s defence plans. This trail is truly a kaleidoscope of Katong’s colourful cultural traditions.
