🇸🇬 This National Day, celebrate the flavours that bring us together.

Peranakan cuisine is a cherished part of Singapore's rich multicultural heritage. Our Executive Chef Roslan has reimagined four beloved Peranakan classics, proving that heritage recipes can be both flavourful and thoughtfully prepared.

One of his personal favourites is the 𝗕𝗮𝗯𝗮 𝗡𝘆𝗼𝗻𝘆𝗮 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝗥𝗶𝗰𝗲.

"𝘔𝘺 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘢 𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘲𝘶𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘭𝘶𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘠𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘠𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘺. 𝘌𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳, 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘣𝘢𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘧𝘭𝘢𝘷𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴."

A place is shaped not only by its history, but by the people who bring it to life.

Today, we're proud to unveil "𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲", a mural inspired by the rich Peranakan heritage of Joo Chiat and created by Singaporean artist Sean Dunston.

More than an artwork, it is a tribute to the warmth, hospitality and sense of belonging that define both our neighbourhood and the care we strive to provide every day.

As we celebrate Nurses' Day, we dedicate this mural to our nurses, whose compassion, dedication and unwavering commitment help make Parkway East Hospital a place that truly feels like home.

Happy Nurses' Day to all our wonderful nurses. Thank you for caring for our patients and community every day.

Can hospital food be both comforting and nutritious? 🍽️

At Parkway East Hospital, we believe it can be.

Led by Executive Chef Roslan, our culinary team has refreshed our in-patient menu, drawing inspiration from the hospital's 84-year heritage in the Katong-Joo Chiat community.

Working closely with our dietitians, they've thoughtfully adapted traditional Peranakan flavours into dishes that are both comforting and nutritious to support our patients' recovery.

For Executive Chef Roslan, this menu is also deeply personal.

"Growing up near Koon Seng Road, Peranakan culture has always been close to my heart. I wanted to share the rich heritage of Peranakan cuisine with our patients during their stay."

This initiative reflects our belief that thoughtful touches, whether through compassionate care, a welcoming environment or a comforting meal, can help make every hospital stay feel a little more like home.

Your liver works hard every day, filtering toxins, processing nutrients, and carrying out hundreds of essential functions that keep your body running.

But when liver disease develops, it often doesn't cause obvious warning signs in its early stages. By the time symptoms appear, significant liver damage may already have occurred.

If you're unsure about your liver health, you're not alone. Many people take this vital organ for granted.

A gastroenterologist can help you understand your personal risk of liver disease and advise whether tests may be appropriate to detect liver problems early, before they progress.
