Quick album
Hi. Today I'm going to show you some photos I took in Singapore, just a few of them, mostly about food, and some parts where I contracted the Internet Disease.
Whee. But first, like I said previously, we were in Johor for the mighty Zeus's wedding.
Spot! Xiaxue, and the barflies.
Our room had a FANTASTIC VIEW of the golf course.
And it was FUCKING HUGE OK. Can fit in 4 king size beds and have room to play tag inside some more. Eric said it's made for orgies, the room that is. I was pretty fucking happy with one whole king size bed to myself. I told Eric hoh, if we ever live together I want our room to be THIS BIG.
We took our very own 'just the two of us in bed' photo. Disclaimer: Neither of us look this good in real life.
And then I thought since every blogger who is in a relationship seems to enjoy taking photos of their hands, I decided to take one too lor, when Eric was not looking. My bf finds these blogger-habits of taking photos of every darn thing pretty annoying.
Actually if you think about it, it IS pretty weird, holding hands hoh, and then remembering that 'Eh I got a camera', and then stopping to TAKE A PHOTO OF YOURSELF HOLDING HANDS WITH ANOTHER GUY. Super jialat man, being bloggers. Whee. But if it is a trend, I will try to oblige, occasionally. Hee hee.
We stayed at this place that looks a bit like this.
Then again, many places in Singapore boast the HDB flat phenomenon. Despite the monotony, I'll have to give a hats off to the S'porean Gahmen lah, no way you can find well-maintained government housing like this in this side of the world. But the prices of these gahmen-build things are so freaking expensive, *gack*, and our three-room flat only had ONE TINY bathroom. If morning stomach ache want to pang sai and someone else is using it mah sei-fo? Luckily, public toilets in Singapore are very clean.
We had lots of food in Singapore. Trust me, contrary to popular belief, the food in Singapore is pretty good, if you know where to look. Over at Changi Beach we had some smackalicious deep-fried brinjal.
Somewhere near People's Park we had damn good zhui kuey. For KL-ites, you know these as the woon zhai kou. If you love hokkien-teochew styled cooking, then Singapore will be a great place for food.
I got to have my Bak Chor Mee (minced pork noodles) again, (I only get this once a year yah? You can't get this in KL.)
My Singaporean guide thought the way I ordered it was a little different. My condiments were personalized mah, told the Auntie to add vinegar, no ketchup, and lots of bak chor.
Eric got the Tempura Udon instead, not South-East Asian at all, but the stock was great. Had this in Ngee Ann City.
We tried the Prawn Noodles in Bugis Road, and neither of us thought it was smacking at all. Penang still has the best, best, best Prawn Mee in the whole of Asia. Not even the size of those prawns could salvage this dish.
I haven't been camwhoring in a bit, and there's just so many years left for me to do this and actually feel happy that I still look ok for now, so here you go. One.
Two.
Three. I am not naked in this photo.
That's it. Till tomorrow.

‘Trust me, contrary to popular belief, the food in Singapore is pretty good, if you know where to look.’
???!
SINGAPORE FOOD IS GOOD, all those who don’t say so obviously hasn’t been in Singapore before.
You didn’t try chicken rice??

Singaporean:
Well it’s good. But it’s not as good as Malaysian food. I think it’s because Size Does matter. There’s more people in the country, hence the bigger variety, and the better options.
