Jed in Geylang, Part 1.

You can't say that you've truly experienced Singapore until you visit one of its red light districts. I can now proudly say I did as I had finally stepped into Geylang. I know what's running through your mind but rest assured, I was only there for food, okeh? Hey, what's with that look? Anyway, I was there way back in mid of December, paying KYtheMonkey, who lives there, a visit.

First stop, the "Yu Tiao and Soya". I tell you, this is the first time ever I see a shop spanning 2 lots, selling purely Yu Tiao and Soya. So we ordered Soya Bean drink, Tau Foo Fah (topped with baked groundnuts at no extra costs), and of course, Yu Tiaos. And because we're such gluttons, we ordered 4, which is like, dem stupid. The length of the fried dough critters here are twice of what we see in KL, that means each of us is like, eating 4. -_-"

Seriously. Very. Long.

Soft crispiness on the outside but soft in the inside, hence chewing does not tire your jaws. Taste good too, just right, not too salty nor bland.

Tau Foo Fah. Just smooth and somehow tasted great with the groundnuts. Yummy!

Soya Bean Drink. Cold. Nothing special though, tasted like Soya Bean loh. Although cold, but still complemented well with the Yu Tiao. Yah, I dipped 'em cold, cannot ah?

After the mouthfuls of flours and soya, we headed a few blocks futher in search for the femes Fried Beef Kueh Teow. Else, it will be the Frog Porridge. Hence, I'll end this blog letting you guys guess which of those ended up in my tummy. Cause I gotta run for more good food now, had an appointment with friends of the girlfriend.
