Probably one of the more cost-friendly snack options in town, this food stand at the basement of Bugis Junction serves perfectly grilled and deep-fried seafood snacks, and is incredibly popular among youngsters. Swing by for a post-movie snack and munch on the Grilled Squid ($3.80). It comes with a choice of two glazes, Obasan BBQ and Obasan Fiery sauce. Otherwise, share the Large Crispy Squid ($6.80) with a friend. We're talking flattened squids larger than your face. Large squids tend to overcook, but these colossal beings at Uyi are cooked perfectly thanks to their well-timed system — each squid is fried for exactly four minutes so you get none of that dreaded rubbery texture. Finish off with one of six different powder topping choices ranging from sour plum to curry.
