Dinner at Hong Lim Complex
The stand in the Hong Lim Complex from which we bought dinner.  Its menu 
is extensive, much more so than most stands.
Fried rice.  Good.
Yong tau foo, a dish that's been on my to-try list since before my first 
visit to Singapore.  It's basically tofu stuffed with stuff, in this 
case mainly fish cake.  Here we had thin stuffed tofu, thick stuffed 
tofu, eggplant wrapped in tofu, green pepper wrapped in tofu and stuff 
and even a stuffed red pepper (not too hot).  Good.  This dish was 
rather fishy in retrospect.  (We didn't notice at the time.)  I could 
smell the fish on my breath the next morning despite brushing my teeth 
the previous night.
