Welcome to Singapore!

You have just arrived and you are finding Singapore to be much harder than expected.

Singapore can be genuinely challenging for a strict gluten-free diet. Awareness here is lower than in many Western countries, so strategies that work at home don't always translate.

That said, thousands of travelers have eaten well here with a bit of preparation, and you will too.

You need the essential resources first.

1. Log into the Membership Library

If possible, do this from a laptop. Your phone browser will work, but a little more tedious to view.

The library lives at learn.internationalglutenfree.com.

The website should default to the login screen. If you have not yet set a password, choose Generate Secure Code.

(The platform that hosts the membership library occasionally updates. If the window is blank, try https://learn.internationalglutenfree.com/home or https://learn.internationalglutenfree.com/dashboard.)

2. Open the the Gluten-Free Singapore Travel Toolkit in your course library.

Look for the RESOURCE LIBRARY Section.

Open the module to find all the resources you need.

If you are viewing this on a phone or mobile device, select SYLLABUS to see the modules.

3. Download and read Quick Start Guide and The Restaurant & Cafe List.

Stick with the Dedicated and Highly Recommended restaurants.

The quick start guide gives an overview of gluten-free in Singapore with a short list of the safest places. The Restaurant & Cafe List has a much more extensive list plus a goggle map.

3. Download and Read the Guidebook.

There is much to learn about how gluten-free is communicated and handled in Singapore. Knowing as much as possible will help you find more safe place to eat.

Use the Restaurant List and map to make a plan for the next few days.

4. Join the Community.

The community is located inside the membership library. There will be more information here about local restaurants and recommendations. Share your experiences for the benefit of others.

The GFSG Community is private and advert free. It is independent from mainstream social media. It is still in the building stage, so we really appreciate your contributions and interactions.

5. If you have the time

Read through the Local Hawker Dishes course to learn more about dishes you see in local restaurants and hawker centers.
