As usual, queues for the nasi lemak.............

Hey, I hope you are NOT one of these suckers who would dropped by Changi Village to queue for a plate of nasi lemak???? Are You??? People in Singapore are suckers..............they love queuing.............queuing for food and everything........................

Delicious food are aplenty in Changi Village hawker centre.........altogether there are about 6 nasi lemak food stalls, like I said, Singaporeans love queuing...........I would go for Mizzie's Corner nasi lemak.............so many good nasi lemak but people kept queuing just for one particular stall........beats me!

My recommendations for the hawker food in Changi (besides the boring nasi lemak), I would opt the beef kway teow (with chinchalok), mutton soup (Hainanese style), seafood (very nice fermented bean flower crabs), gado gado, fried mee goreng (mee kuah, mutton chop, soup kambing), Bala's teh halia (ginger tea), ayam penyet (crushed chicken rice), Amigo's kway teow soup, Roti John, Satay beehoon and Fried Hokkien Prawn noodles................

Afternoon delights??? Go for goreng pisang (along Bala's drink stall), with teh or kopi, gado gado or soto ayam........................

See the great varieties I've just mentioned above.......................many and aplenty.......Singaporeans should adapt to some changes or zest in their lives............perhaps next time when you do drop by Changi V, why not drop by for some hawker fare, take a walk along the shophouses, drop by the cafes for a good cuppa or wine , chilling out at some of the cafes or pubs................Remember , Changi V is not about nasi lemak, we have good bistros plus nice chill out cafes where you can hava a nice ambience away from the hustle & bustle of the city..........sit by and enjoy the idyllic atmosphere.....................

PULAU UBIN, HERE WE COME.............

Ubin, here we come!!!!

A trip to Pulau Ubin is a throwback to Singapore in the 1960's. The island is home to Singapore's last villages or "kampongs' - presently only a hundred villagers living here. Some villagers depend on traditional farming and fishing for subsistence, while others tend to their provision stores and eateries. At the main village, near the jetty, some houses have been converted to bicycle rental shops to support a quiet tourist trade.

UBIN'S JETTY

I would like to share some tips for those who are heading for Pulau Ubin.

Boat ride costs $2 per person (boat will only leave when there are at least 10 pax) . Takes about 10 mins boat ride to Ubin. If you are bringing your own bike, there's additional charges of $2 for your bike........Bikes rental are also available at $5 for the whole day (brand new bikes at $8 for the whole day).

Superb seafood are available from lunch onwards...............do try the braised wild boar meat, hor fun, chilli/pepper crabs and many varieties of sizzling hot plates to satisfy your tastebuds!!!

Dying for a nice cold drink while you cycle??? Fret not, you can find many small huts or kiosks offering mineral water or ice cold soda to quench your thirst.

Ubin provides a much-needed escapade from the hustle and bustle of city life in Singapore. Its rustic and natural charm draws about 300,000 visitors each year. The idyllic setting is ideal for outdoor activities.

Ubin is largely of a series of undulating, granite hills. In the early days, granite mining supported a few thousand settlers. Much of the original vegetation was also cleared for the cultiviation of rubber and crops like coffee, pineapple, coconut and jasmine. Today, abandoned granite quarries remain as picturesque relics of Ubin's history, while forests and grassland have regenerated to cover up the ravages of the past.

I had also discovered that there were many shrines in Ubin.........the German girl shrine , a Thai Temple, Taoist temples, many fruit trees and a bird sanctuary!!!!
