Turtle Powa!


 After spotting a new desire the previous night I decided that I would indulge in exactly this. Robyn and I went to the advised Airport Road hawker centre (which coincidentally was only a few blocks from her place), ordered some satay, and pig intestine soup. Then I strolled over to find out about my elixir of a dinner.

TURTLE SOUP!!!!! It increases mental and physical capacity, reduces mental stress and anxiety, boosts immune system, and reduces fatigue. Sign me up.


To be completely honest, the spices made it taste like medicine. The meat was incredibly tough as well. I don’t know what I was really expecting, but won’t be eating again anytime soon. Totally worth the experience though. Apparently this soup is considered a luxury, it must be, and the bowl of soup was $10 bucks. That’s like 3 meals! It was incredibly filling though.



After this we were invited to a Singaporean BBQ. One of her co-workers (who I played badminton with the other day as well) invited us to join his family bbq. I am so happy with the hospitality I have received here; it is honestly second to none.

Whether it was food, alcohol or great conversation this was a fun time!
