I have discovered more about Singapore during my medical sabbatical back home than I ever did growing up and living there for 24 years. My travel story and ideals for a Singapore layover for the SCMP here

Halal food: mutton murtabak at Zam Zam Singapore.

Hanging out with fowls (black swan included!) at the Singapore Botanic Gardens.

Dinner at Old Airport Road Hawker Centre.



I have to confess that I never had Chinese rojak before and I didn’t like it very much. Comes with this airy crispy crackers and pieces of meat that taste less than charsiu than it looks.
