You deserve better than frozen chicken franks from the supermarket! So if you’re planning a hotdog barbecue or want to elevate your homemade full English brekkie, pay a visit to Sidecar Sausages and stock up on all-natural sausages that are handcrafted in Singapore.

3. Oh Deli
An East Coast foodie haven that is the brainchild of the Oh sisters, Annie, Patsy, Jenny and Susie, Oh Deli is a cafe, deli, winery and one impressive butcher all rolled into one. Red meat is fresh, not frozen, and flown in from Australia, where Jenny and Susie got hooked on fantastic local produce. The chicken is hormone-and-antibiotic free, and the sausages are impressive: expect chipolatas, pork chorizo and more – or indulge in a barbecue set from $130, which includes all the trimmings including buns, kebabs and veggies. While you’re there, add some freshly baked ciabatta and a bottle of punchy red wine to go with all that flame-cooked meat.

If you live in the east, you can check out its outlet in Tanjong Katong.
