Food and Drink Part 1

Well, as you know...I loves my food and Singapore offers everything, the food is as diverse as the population - Chinese, Thai, Indian, Malay and European. Whichever country I seem to go, it appears that I wil only feel truly comfortable once the following criteria have been satisfied: i. know the price of the food and drink (so you don't get ripped off - which we did!) and ii. know my way around the area (by walking) and iii. know the price of a taxi, rickshaw when you're tired of walking.
Breakfast consisted of some tofu rolls, sesame buns and fresh pineapple juice, it was all that we felt comfortable with at the time. The tofu suspiciously tasted like a chicken dinner (from memory) and the buns were with us the rest of the day. Lunch was fantastic, spicy noodle soup and udon noodles with veg from a cafe in Chinatown (39 Temple St)- there appears to be alot of vegetarian meats (gluton) which add texture and taste so this may be a good sign for China (personally, I like my pets to remain as pets!).
Dinner was being served in a very friendly cafe near Boat Quay (Thai Smile Cafe,Lor Telok), it wasVietamese Spring Rolls, Prawn Phad Thai (Noodles) and Veg Fried Rice accompanied by 2 large bottles of Tiger Beer- it was so goodwe went thee the next night (and because we were tired of searching).
Second breakfast was abit more conventional but don't (as we did) get confused with half-boiled and hard boiled eggs - big difference - these were returned for more heat to transform them into something more western - after all, raw eggs are for body builders right?
