I am finally back in Singapore! And I am so glad the work trip is done and over with. It was a most interesting experience, in terms of culture, work experience, and understanding how things are done in China. The food was great – a lot of mala heat, Sichuan spice and beef/mutton too. Breakfast at the hotel was decent, with a variety of Chinese vegetable stir-fry, watermelon (okay… but they were not sweet *sulk*), coffee (yay! but it was a bit diluted), tea leaf eggs, beef noodles, congee, millet soup and sausage (yay!) There was also soggy noodles served during one of our desperate lunches at the hotel to get away from official work lunches. My favourite food? It has to be the sheng jian bao at the food street along the cross junction of the old town. The hot soup spurted out with every bite of the bun. At 9 degrees Celsius out in the cold. Nicccceeeee.
