supper hop

hall 12 organized a supper hop intending to allow those who stay in hall to know more people staying in the same hall. so there was hired buses chauffeuring us around Singapore tonight. i had only 1 mouth of each to keep my stomach free to try every kind of food. only the recommendable ones will be highlighted here...

our group got Mel and me, JianWei, Benjamin, Zijian, De Yang, Ky Meng, Ivan, Collin, Akshay, a new friend Zhang Miao from China and Pascal and his friends. we were like the only group to always stand while we eat. a pity Akshay left early with Pascal and his fellow friends.

first stop was Jalan Besar hawker center. god it was just next to Desker Road (the local gay version of Geylang). we had:

turtle soup (山瑞汤） --- * F A N T A S T I C *
bak kut teh （肉骨茶）
lamb soup （羊肉汤） --- don't like
fish ball noodle --- awful, but the fishcake was nice!
BBQ chicken wing --- 2 thumbs up!
lime juice

2nd destination was Old Airport Road hawker center. THERE WAS A PLAYGROUND NEXT TO IT WITH SAND AND SWING!!! one of a rare thing in Singapore these days. most have been converted to those rubber floor thing that emits an unpleasant smell under the hot sun. we had a hell lot of food here:

char kuay teow from 2 different stalls --- not that fantastic
fried omelet --- love it! but Serangoon there one nicer.
lamb soup --- again! totally gross!
chee cheong fun --- damn smooth with prawn and chicken inside.
barbecued sting ray --- spicy!
spicy octopus hot plate --- very fresh and Q with a unique sauce (that i don't know how to appreciate)
wanton noodle --- nice also but got another place one even more fantastic.
banana and jack fruit fritters --- average

the third and final stop was Geylang Lor 9. unlike the previous stops, everything was mouth-watering here. the must have food:

fried dough (油条）
bean curd （豆花）
Taiwan vermicelli aka mee sua （台湾面线）
beef hor fun （牛肉河粉）

the difference between odd and even streets here is glaring. there was a small tour around the even streets from the guys after our food. what i saw that night shan't be published for the girls need respect too. however there was this DAMN ASSHOLE Indian man (not that I'm racist or got anything against them) was walking past our group when i saw he purposely want to bang into Ah Mel. BASTARD. lucky Mel moved away in time to avoid contact with him. MOTHERFUCKER. we had a glimpse of the darker streets before returning to the big group.

well the day ended with us reaching hall around 2+ am today dead beat and smelly from all the smoke. but it was well worth it!
