It can be cheap but awesome!
 
There are new food awards out in Singapore and two hawker stalls have received Michelin stars. Pretty cool!

Yes, Singapore has wonderful hawker food! So does Georgetown, Penang.

You mentioned G'town before. I hope to get there one day! :).

We are hoping to return there, maybe in 2017.

How's the shoulder?

Kathie Jul 21st, 2016 02:12 PM

Thanks for asking. My Physical Therapy is going well. It will take a full year to regain my previous range of motion, so I'm almost halfway there.

Good to hear that its going well!!

That is cool! Thanks, jacketwatch.

@ Kathie: So sorry I had forgotten about your shoulder! Congratulations on reaching the halfway point, and best for continued progress.

Din tai fung in Raffles City mall in Singapore where we ate with our friends had one Michelin star BTW. Dumplings are its speciality.

A follow up to those two hawker stalls mentioned above is that, no surprise I suppose the, lines are huge with waits of up to one hr. Good for them!!
