More food...

Lovely weekend culminating in a visit to Law Pa Sat hawker centre. A giant circle of a food centre with a central drinks counter and the hawker stands radiating out from it like the spokes of a bicycle wheel. There are over a hundred to chose from. It was quite quiet on arrival as most of the stalls were closed. Never mind, we met up with the Silburns for a beer and mulled over what we might get to eat. Chris apparently had a top ten of foods that he wanted to try when he got here. One of those was boiled chicken and egg (a traditional dish). He got to try some too. And he won't be doing it again by the sounds of it! I had some very nice shrimp wanton soup and there was also various curries, spring rolls and other delights on table at one point or another. D decided that today was the day for naan bread, chapati and some daal. A few beers and several dishes from several countries later and we decided to call it a day. I must be starting to live here. I  slightly begrudged the fact that the chapatis were 30 cents more expensive than the day before in Little India.

As I sit and blog at 730 in the morning the kids are playing happily by themselves. A feature which has become more prominent over the last few days. And a welcome one. D playing and singing with his trains and Zoe studiously reading some random leaflets in her new cool egg Ikea chair.
Time for a cuppa I think.
