the best food i ever ate on all my trips is from street stands (sometimes costs more than a buck, especially when you spend the next day on the toilet:) but it’s worth it. however the other best food is local tiny restaurants. they are always home made, and why go to some ethnic, international cuisine when your’ already traveling!

My favourite dining so far has to be indian food. I just couldn’t get enough Butter Chicken with Cheese and Garlic Nan bread.. ahh, but then again the south-east asian cuisine is also delicious.. In Singapore so the food court is on the menu tonight :)

Yum, butter chicken. I admit I forgot the names of most of the Indian dishes I ate, but I won’t forget how much I enjoyed them! Never knew I could survive as a vegetarian and enjoy it so much. :)
