Singapore: Day One
June 24, 2012Posted by Kanga.
After checking into our hotel, we were off again to meet up with our friend, Adrianna, in Arab Street.
We had some lovely nachos at this Mexican bar, Piedra Negra.
There is a lovely bar covered in mosaic tile work and a large bird (condor? quetzal? Quetzalcoatl?)
And a nice little lizard clinging to the outside wall.
Then we were off to a Chinese restaurant for dinner, A.B. Ah Meng Kitchen.
Where we had
Salted egg prawn ball – prawn (shrimp) with corn coated in salted egg batter and deep fried. Very tasty!
Deep fried fish skin – just what it sounds like, fish skin lightly battered and fried until crisp. Tasty, but one of those things you know isn’t good for you in the long run. DaddyBird wants to go back for more.
Vegetable with Golden Mushrooms – which is not what I would have guessed by the looks of it. This was tasty also. (Tasty, my overused word of the day.)
And beer with ice cubes.
Here is the first of what will be many cat pictures.
Then we toddled off to our hotel and slept and slept and slept some more.
(Apologies for blurry pictures. My camera was on the wrong setting which has been rectified and the pictures will improve.)

you are right-the vegetables with the golden mushrooms does not look like what it says..except for golden! And did the fish skin remind you of home? fish, wrapped in foil and fried over the coals til done. YUMMY!
