Singapore Day #2

During work on Friday we asked the client where to get good Indian food. Well he told us to go to some shopping center for good Indian food. When we headed over there we found out that there was no Indian food, rather there was some Indonesian food (quite different if you are not familiar). Anyway, we sat down as my colleague had never had Indonesian food, and being that my grandmother is from Indonesia, I consider myself to be a pretty seasoned veteran in the food. We ordered things like Gado Gado, and Beef Rendang (my absolute favorite in the world) along with some other dishes. Again, being well versed in Indonesian food, I was actually quite disappointed, so no more Indonesian while we are in Singapore.

We next headed to an area called Clarke Quay, this is pretty popular place with lots of shops and bars. When we arrived, the place was packed and most of the bars had lines coming out the doors. Anyway, we were finally able to settle in to one of the "wards" at a place called The Clinic. This bar was a pretty cool gimmicky bar, if you wanted to sit at tables with chairs, the chairs were all real wheelchairs. We sat on the typical hospital bed's for our table (as all the wheelchairs were taken). My colleague ordered one of the IV drinks where you are able to drink out of the tube from the IV bag. The place was really expensive, but definitely worth the experience. Night #2, definitely much more successful then night #1.
