Why don't they serve one of the few things that bongs can make? Fish and chips, shepherd's pie, scotch eggs, or Indian food.

:marseysquint: Is Singaporean food like this too then?

You might have heard but most Chinese restaurants in America are run by Cantonese, thankfully not serving food like this. It's not authentic either but like a bastardized version of "real Chinese" with a lot of extra sugar in all the sauces.

Eh not really, we gained our independence much earlier and i think the bongs didn't have as much of a stranglehold on the island as compared to HK after they lost us to the japs during WW2

We do have a subgroup of Chinese whose cuisine is something like that but it's because most of them worked as servants for the bongs

Then again toast and eggs are a very popular staple breakfast meal here :marseythonk: seems like you can find this chain over in the Philippines too

Anyway was at the filipino mall here in Singapore yesterday because parking was cheaper and I think you and your wife would have loved it lol

Toast and poached eggs is great :marseyembrace:

No interest in the jam and cheese though.

I don't really like the jam too but that's butter and it's delicious :marseylickinglips:

I think I've seen that logo but didn't realize it was from there. The only Singaporean food chain I'd been aware of is some chicken place that has locations in a few of the malls. We're back in the provinces because of the hurricane last week :marseyhurricane2: and I don't think there's one out here to check the name.

Since we're talking food if you ever visit Manila/Cebu check out Laguna Cafe, it's hands down the best Filipino food I've had and is super cheap considering they send the chefs over to France for culinary school ($10/head ordering multiple dishes). I didn't like dinuguan (pork blood stew) until I had theirs.

was at the filipino mall

What makes it a Filipino mall? :marseyhmm: Parking's a b-word in the Philippines too, the infrastructure is generally not very good and all of the stereotypes about Asian drivers turned out to be true. There are actually locals who hang out in the lots helping direct the cars in for a dime.

Since forever it has been a hangout for the Filipinos here so it's full of Filipino eateries and shops and stuff! It's also located in the heart of the city so it's pretty convenient for tourists
