Ooooo have fun! Love to hear more about your trip!

It'll be pretty busy, but there should at least be room for some nice meals!

I've already passed the first test. All of the devices I brought with me can handle 230V without exploding, as I thought they would. A pretty good way to start things off, I'd say. ^_~

Nice. Well hope it all goes well for your business.

You got this.

Haa, you should be able to do some food tourism as the favorite pastime activity of Singapore is eating. Would recommend the Nasi Lemak Lobster if you have the budget for it!
Actually I don't know exactly where it is

Sounds excellent! I'll keep and eye peeled for it. ^^

Have fun.
I am a huge fan of Din Tai Fung and their Xiaolongbao.

Sadly we do not have that in Europe.

XLB are not impossible to find in Europe depending on where you are. At least speaking from the UK experience, you can find them at the right place. It's a classic Shanghai dish.

Try to find one in south Germany.

I'll see if I can give it a try! I've loved every form bao I've ever had the pleasure of consuming, and I had xaio long bao during my stay in Japan (in one of the restaurants in JR Gate Tower in Nagoya). I can't yet attest to how it compares to what's available here, but I can tell you that it was pretty dang delicious!

I did manage to have xiaolongbao today, so thanks for reminding me how delicious it is! Your reminder is the main reason I kept an eye out for it. ^^

Slither, for my part, I highly recommend you try Hainan Chicken if you get the chance, it is practically THE classic Singaporean dish. But honestly, all the food in Singapore is good so you won't go wrong. If you can try a classic Beef Rendang, a traditional Malaysian dish, that too is highly worthwhile.

If you decide to try a Durian, be fairly warned that the aroma is... not for the faint of heart.

Ooo, thanks for the tip! I'll be on the lookout for both of these dishes. The beef rendang sounds especially delicious, though I usually have to steer clear of stews and soups unless I've prepared them myself, due to a rather nasty little food allergy to an ingredient commonly found in stew.

I've been acquainted with durian in the past, and I think I'll probably have to pass should the opportunity come up again. I'm pretty adventurous with food, but once was enough for that particular beast. ^_~;

Rendang is really more of a Malaysian dish than something uniquely Singaporean like Hainan Chicken (after all, there is enormous Chinese influence on Singaporean cuisine, especially that of the Hakka people) but nonetheless, it is absolutely not to be missed. And you can almost certainly get Indonesian favourites like satay (skewered grilled meats with peanut sauce) and murtabbaq (a griddle-cooked turnover with egg and meat). You're really in a food paradise. So be sure to eat as much as you can. Rendang is beef slow-cooked in a coconut curry. Malaysian curries tend to be fairly dry compared to say, an Indian curry so it's less like a stew than some curries are.

On the matter of durians, there's really nothing wrong with disliking a certain food or dish. My feeling is if you tried it and honestly didn't like it, then that's the end of it.

I adore satay with peanut sauce! It's also Jenny's favorite food. ^_~ I'll be having some of that for sure, if I happen across it. I'll be on the lookout for all of the rest of this, too!

I'll try just about anything at least once. Can't find your favorite if you don't try everything!

I'm pleased to report that I managed to have both beef rendang and xiaolongbao today, and both were highly delicious. I'll continue to keep my eyes open for more!

Xiaolongbao are a classic! All the rage in Shanghai. :}

I am glad you liked Beef Rendang. :}

Have fun and do stay safe. c:

I'll do my best! I'm here on a business trip, but I'll try to sneak in as much food tourism as possible.

Wow~ Be safe over there Slither

Doing okay so far, at least!

Don't kill yourself with these long trips. I know how rough they can be.
*Hugs*

I'll do my best! This one was for work, so it was less in my control than the Japan vacation. ^_~

Wishing yuo a good time there.

Thanks! Here's hoping. ^^

except for the need to stretch the legs.... Sounds like a good time! ^v^

I've been out here on business, and working pretty hard, but it's pretty dang hard to beat the food!
