My Escapes Singapore Return to "Lion City" Brunching in Singapore Again

Brunching in Singapore Again

My second trip has brought me again to hawker centres and I even tried the taste of the durian, in addition to a number of humble snacks...

Well, I got back to Singapore... and I was even hungrier during these days, after having traveled so much...

Despite the high prices on transportation, the sky high prices of apartments, I am telling you: you can eat well in Singapore, even if you are a budget traveler with a thin wallet!

In fact, amongst the well-developed countries, I consider Singapore less expensive.

Spain, Portugal, Italy took a lot more out of my pockets than Singapore. A humble brunch can be terribly expensive in Europe's trendy travel destinations countries.

I'd also mention that small countries like Slovenia have staggering prices. It was a lot easier to find cheap food in Singapore than in Ljubljana, for example.

The humble still water bottle on the left comes from Fiji... Well, it's the most exotic water I ever had, but didn't taste like anything special.

...I'd sure love to visit Fiji, though...

I still had gyozas and pizzas, smoothies, noodle soups, various beers and other meals... and I also tried the durian pancake!

The durian fruit is highly revered in Singapore and Malaysia, but I was terribly disappointed: my pancake tasted like vomit, I threw half of it away.

Yukk!

I doubt I'll eat anything containing durians again...

Here are some of the foods I encountered in Singapore on those days.
