food opera is a massive food court in the basement of the super fancy ion mall that recently opened on orchard road in singapore. derek and i actually stopped in the food opera twice - once for lunch before we started shopping and again for an afternoon snack before leaving the mall. i don't even think we managed to look at every vendor before deciding which one to order from. for lunch - derek ordered hainanese chicken, roast duck with rice, and a side of roast pork. i wanted something a little lighter and went to the dim sum vendor and ordered an egg tart and fluffy white pork buns.

lunch was just okay. it was more expensive than other food courts, but the food wasn't worth the bump in price. unfortunately i forgot to take a picture of our afternoon snacks, because those were much better. derek had bon chon chicken (yes, that's considered a snack for derek) and i had belgian chocolate ice cream mixed coldstone-style with sponge cake and strawberries from a japanese ice cream shop.
