If you're wondering what to eat for lunch, world-famous singer and pop icon Dua Lipa has five food recommendations for you. The star recently visited Singapore as part of the Asia leg of her Radical Optimism tour. Lipa shared in her newsletter on Service95 that she had gathered many dining suggestions from her travels across Asia.

She kicked off her recommendations with her top picks from Singapore, highlighting flavours she’s still "dreaming about." Maxwell Food Centre Photo from @dualipa/Instagram Maxwell Food Centre is a beloved food haven for both tourists and locals, and it seems Lipa didn’t miss out on the experience. Calling it a "true Singaporean food haven," Lipa highlighted local favourites like chicken rice, describing it as “simple, delicious, and served with love.



” On Nov. 6, just hours before her concert in Singapore, Lipa posted photos of herself enjoying Lao Ban Soya Beancurd and colourful rainbow agar-agar at Maxwell Food Centre. Dressed casually in a black tee and jeans, she looked comfy and relaxed while savouring the famous local delicacies.

Lipa raved that the restaurant offered a modern twist on traditional Indian flavours. 328 Katong Laksa Photo from @dualipa/Instagram Third on the singer’s list is 328 Katong Laksa, where she was also spotted dining.

“Prepare your tastebuds for a fiery kick,” Lipa wrote, encouraging fans to try the iconic dish. On Nov. 4, she shared photos on Instagram of herself queuing up to order laksa at 328 Katong Laksa.

Her review? “A spicy, soul-warming bowl you won’t forget.” Nixta Photo from @nixtasg/Instagram Lipa also recommended Nixta, a Mexican grill and bar located at Amoy Street. Describing it as a "huge highlight," she said the restaurant brings the flavours of Mexico to the heart of Singapore.

“Think smoky mezcal cocktails and mouthwatering tacos,” she added. New Ubin Seafood Photo from @newubinseafood/Instagram Lipa capped off her list with a standout mention: New Ubin Seafood, which has multiple outlets in Singapore. She's still thinking about the fresh seafood there, she wrote.

For those less enthusiastic about seafood, she reassured fans that there's something on the menu for everyone. Top photos from @dualipa/Instagram.
