A Night in Singapore

Last week, I was in Singapore for only staying a night. 

First day. I went for lunch in Market Street Interim Hawker Center. It's located at 5 Cross Street, right next to Telor Ayer MRT station. It was totally crowded when I arrived at this hawker center. I looked around what I should eat because there are so many delicious food. I was quite curious when I saw there was a very long line for Hor Fun (Chinese noodle made from rice). I directly joined the line to give it a try.

Ah Liang Ipoh Hor Fun - Unit No: 01-35

Fried Fish Dumpling Hor Fun - SGD 3.500
The hor fun was smooth mixed with flavorful savory dark sauce.

The fried fish dumplings were so tasty.

Kohaku Tendon - SGD 15.00 
(incld. 10% service charge + 7% GST)

The tempura were perfectly fried and tasty.

The second day, before noon, I went to Lim Chee Guan which is well-known for their sweet meat.

Traditionally Chinese barbecue sweet meat.

I bought it for my mom.
Crispy Pork Floss 160g - SGD 6.00


From Lim Chee Guan store, I went to Changi Airport. I wanted to visit Jewel and also to try the famous Shake Shack burger. I
