51 old airport road

after a series of faux-hawker centers (i.e. mall food courts), we finally got a chance to go to a real hawker center on our last night in singapore. it was massive - rows and rows of vendors selling all different kinds of food. it was a little overwhelming and we only had an hour. derek and i decided to take turns. first, he guarded our table while i searched for my meal. i walked up and down each row looking for indonesian fried rice but didn't find it. i ended up going with a bowl of minced meat noodles.

on my way back to the table, i noticed an oyster omelet stand but my hands were full. so i asked derek to order a plate to share with the table. really good. the oysters tasted fresh and the chili sauce was delicious. after we finished our meal, we went back to get soybean milk and almond jelly for dessert. derek and i loved the hawker center - next time we go to singapore we'll definitely visit more hawker centers and less food courts!
