Ultimate Rice Dumpling Listing 2016

RiceDumpling2016

Dragon Boat Festival or Duan Wu Jie (端午节) is just around the corner on 9 June 2016. It is celebrated in Singapore in events like dragon boat race as well as eating rice dumplings. Dragon Boat Festival origins from the sacrifice of Qu Yuan, a legendary Chinese poet. He drowned himself to protest against the rulers for corruption. Dragon boat races are organised symbolizing searching for Qu Yuan's body along the river. It is said that dumplings were thrown into the river to stop fish from feeding on the poet's body as well as making noise to scare the fish away. Hence the originating of rice dumpling but now it is served on the table as delicacy instead.

Every year in celebration of the festival, many restaurants and hotels will be offering the traditional rice dumpling as well as new creations to entice guests who are either buying them for self consumption or gift. If you are planning to get some rice dumplings this year, here is the ultimate listing of the various offering from restaurants and hotels.
