A Cool Evening Walk in Chinatown

We decide to drop by Chinatown for dinner and take a stroll. Tiong Bahru congee was excellent with deep fried intestines. Sound yakky to my white friends but they are clueless when it come to food! We also have Ah Balling or rice flour balls with peanuts filling in sweet peanut soup. An excellent dessert available only in Chinatown or Maxwell market.

It is very nice to walk around without the crowd. The stalls sells all kinds of cheap paraphernalia and gifts. I feel like a tourist. It is holiday mood to mix with the tourists and walk the tourist's jaunt. Our boys do not seems excited. Only B3 was dragging me around to look for something he seen when he had a school excursion to Chinatown. It is a doll head and when you water it, the "hair" will grow. The "hair" is grass.

It is a good way to end the evening....
