Phil A eats his way through Singapore

"Three meals, three cuisines, three races, one Singapore" ... or however the Singapore nation-building propaganda song goes ...

1. Indian (banana-leaf rice):

Mysore Mutton
Chicken Masala
Sambal Crab
Fish Cutlets
Masala Thosai
Spinach
Long Beans
Raita



2. Chinese (dim sum):

Carrot Cake (radish cakes)
Har Gao (prawn dumplings)
Siew Mai (mincemeat dumplings)
Char Siew Pau (pork-filled buns)
Wan Ton Soup
Chee Chong Fan (Rice-flour envelopes stuffed with prawn)
Yam Puffs
Stir-fried French Beans with Mincemeat





3. Malay (and more):

Chicken, Beef and Lamb Satay
Sambal Stingray
BBQ Chicken Wings
Popiah (spring rolls)
Stir-fried Baby Kailan with Oyster Sauce



Drinks in Little India's transvestite red-light district. Avoiding the dodgy sex-toy stallholders after Phil mistook the lurid assortment of vibrators on display for the latest range of Nokia mobile phones.





Lookalike

George Clooney spotted in Little India's transvestite red-light district trying to get his new mobile phone to work. And wondering why his ear was vibrating.
