Doctor in town, calories out! - WW


I waited for a long time for Dr Bernard to come to Singapore. Finally he arrived on Tuesday. Yeah!!!

And he gave me only one night of his time in Singapore. Booooo!

Not wanting to waste precious time, we brought him for dinner at our famous Kim's Hokkien Mee where we dug our fingers into the yummy seafood dishes.

After a short rest at my house, we brought him to Geylang, the red-light district for a walking tour. hehe..... The scantily clad girls scrambled to position themselves in a line and posed seductively whenever the men walked past. With me following behind, the guys could only wipe off the saliva at the corners of their mouths and walked on. heh heh heh.....*evil laughter*

The doctor was shown my favourite Duck Shop in Geylang. hehe.... And for supper, instead of 'calling for chicken' (叫鸡), we had Taiwanese snacks. Duh!

Breakfast the next morning. First stop was at local coffee shop, Chin Mei Chin for hot tea and coffee..... and its yummy toasted Kaya (egg and coconut jam) Buns and Custard Puffs.

Next, Laksa (a type of spicy noodles cooked in coconut milk) and Nasi Lemak (coconut rice) at the famous die-die-must-try Katong Laksa. You can see a wall decorated with framed photos of the owner with celebrities or VVIPs.

And finally.... Beach Road Prawn Noodles and a plate of assorted 5-spice snacks!

The doctor is not staying with us on his second night, giving an excuse that he would be staying out late. hmm.... Well, I must not be too nosey... after all he's still single and available. hehe....

  16. Dr Bernard wears a hearty smile on his face on every photo that is shown here. That goes to show that you have been a wonderful host. :)

    I suppose he needed some privacy when he could only spend one night with your family.

    Hope your late dinner was good?

  31. Wilfrid,
    Geylang is a must visit place for most guys. Sometimes my guests request after reading about it somewhere or from my blog.

    Geylang is an interesting place. It has lots of great food. These few years, due to the influx of illegal foreign prostitutes and pimps, the place has become a place where hookers, gamblers, loansharks, gangsters gather. It will become unmanageable.

    Why should I avoid it? It's my country and I have more right to walk on it than those illegal migrants. I pity the residents of Geylang.
