What's the reason?
Many people have a very good impression of Singapore, and it is also a country with a very high happiness index, which is very desirable.
Although Singapore is a small country, it is clearly divided into several districts. It has an excellent national economy, and while it is excellent, they are also very hardworking.
Housing prices in Singapore are also very high, with an ordinary two- or three-bedroom apartment costing from RMB 5 million to more than 10 million. However, it is not difficult for high-income Singaporeans to struggle.
However, after understanding, we found that many families in Singapore do not install range hoods at home. This is simply unimaginable in China.
If you don’t have a range hood, what should you do with the fumes when cooking?
In fact, Singaporeans hardly cook at home, and the government has even launched a smoke-free Singapore policy.
Therefore, many houses do not have flues installed. If you want to install one, you must apply for a license to install a range hood.
Due to the complicated procedures, many people simply do not install it and choose to go out to eat instead of cooking at home.
Different from the Chinese people's pursuit of large kitchens, Singaporean houses are more inclined to have mini kitchens, which can meet some of the most basic needs without even installing a range hood.
The cloakroom in some houses is even larger than the kitchen space, especially the homes of young people. They even only keep a sink and storage cabinets in the kitchen, and also put the washing machine and dryer in the kitchen.
Many times, the kitchen is just a decoration and does not have much function.
Of course, cooking is not completely eliminated. Some families with elderly people still cook for themselves. Of course, it is also possible that wealthy families hire nannies and the nannies are cooking.
So, what do Singaporeans eat when they don’t cook at home?
In fact, many Singaporeans are busy making money and therefore don’t have much time to cook at home. Therefore, they usually go out to restaurants when they are hungry.
Singaporeans who are busy at work believe that cooking is a time-consuming and labor-intensive job. It is better to spend time on making more money, and then hire someone to cook when you have enough money.
In addition, another reason is that prices in Singapore are high. Not only the prices of meat and vegetables are high, but also the prices of tea, rice, oil and salt. A similar meal may cost hundreds of dollars in one sitting.
It’s expensive, it’s not as affordable as eating out.
Moreover, Singapore has a lot of delicious food, and various restaurants hide a lot of delicious food.
Snacks in Singapore are very cheap, and some only cost one or two Singapore dollars, or five or six yuan.
Singapore also has the cheapest Michelin-starred restaurants in the world. There are so many delicious restaurants, there is really no need to cook at home.
The dazzling array of delicious food is really enviable. It would be perfect if there was a complete takeout system.
