Wed Apr 17 02:37:49 2002 (rr) Book: Malaysia, Singapore, and Brunei LP Location: Singapore Went out and ate some Southern Indian food at a place called Komala Vilas. The dhal was especially good, and Nathan loved the yogurt and the sweet mango lassis. My dinner was arrayed on the traditional banana leaf. There were also thin crackery breads (looked kind of like poppadum) that tasted like unsalted potato chips. Little India at night is a happening place -- floodlit produce stands, men milling about the streets, corner cafes, loud music blaring from stores...After dinner we took the MRT to Orchard Rd and saw The Count of Monte Cristo. I swear the book has a different ending, but I can't really remember, its been so long since I read the book. Guy Pearce made an excellent villain. Post-movie, we caught the very last MRT back home and had a sip of port before bed. We've just confirmed our reservations online for a place in Malacca, and tomorrow we take the Sinaran Petang Express to Malaysia. Now we are off to the botanic gardens. |
