Savour Singapore Safely: Your Low-FODMAP Dining Guide

Navigating Singapore's vibrant food scene while on a low-FODMAP diet can feel overwhelming. From hawker centres to fine dining, common ingredients like garlic, onions, and certain sauces hide everywhere, triggering IBS symptoms. But dining out shouldn’t mean stress or bland meals. With mm food, you can confidently explore Singapore's culinary treasures while keeping your FODMAP restrictions in check.

Your Digital Dining Ally mm food simplifies the process:

  1. Set Your Profile: Choose "Low-FODMAP" in the app’s dietary preferences, or create custom restrictions.
  2. Scan Any Menu: Snap a photo of physical menus or upload digital ones. The AI instantly analyses dishes, flagging high-FODMAP ingredients like wheat-based sauces, lactose-heavy items, garlic/onion, and certain vegetables.
  3. Smart Translations: Travelling? Translate complex menu terms from Malay, Mandarin, or Tamil into your native language while cross-referencing dietary alerts.
  4. Safe Dish Recommendations: Get AI-powered suggestions tailored to you – clearly highlighting safe choices (e.g., "Steamed Fish with Ginger" or "Plain Rice Noodles").

Low-FODMAP Friendly Singaporean Dishes to Try

While customization is key, these are generally safer starting points when verified via mm food:

  • Grilled Satay (skip peanut sauce; request plain meat skewers)
  • Steamed Fish or Chicken (ask for no sauces; use ginger, lemongrass, or chili flakes)
  • Plain Rice or Rice Noodles (avoid coconut rice or gravy)
  • Stir-fried Greens (with low-FODMAP veggies like bok choy instead of mushrooms/beans)

Pro Tips for Stress-Free Dining

  1. Double-Check Sauces: Use mm food to scan ingredients in common sauces like chili crab gravy or laksa paste.
  2. Request Modifications: Politely ask for "no onion/garlic" or sauces on the side. Most restaurants accommodate.
  3. Start Small: At hawker stalls with complex dishes, stick to plainly cooked proteins and verified rice-based options.
  4. Leverage Translations: Confirm ingredients via mm food’s translation feature to avoid language barriers.
