Title: Yummy

Journalling: The amount of Asian food we've had since arriving has been astonishing! From Vietnamese (1), to Singaporean (2), porridge (3), Dim Sum (4), Japanese (5) and Thai (6). Contrary to what we were told, we've yet to miss much of the food back home. As for Aussie food, there's always the sizzle! All totally delicious!

Description: Before we left Singapore, we were told by many out of good intention of ccourse, that we'll find ourseleves missing all things Asian... To our surprise, there are many decent Asian eateries here too! From the first meal we had when we arrived (porridge) to dim sum (our last fanciful meal in Singapore), they can all be found here. Of course, we love a great sizzle while basking under the sun on a cold winter's day too!
