very nice pictures Raffie!!

So do you guys visit Little India sometimes?

RafflesCity · February 18th, 2004, 10:18 AM

Thanks!

I dont go there too often since I've been abroad and when I come back I usually go to the skyscraper-area

But I've been there a couple times for supper or snacks and the food is good and cheap. I also heard you can get great fabrics there.

I will be adding more pics when I can find them

My favourite drink: teh-tarik

More recent pics that I have added

The thing is I dont visit either Little India or Chinatown often in the first place!

But I think its about time I go there soon, as there are so much to discover, and I have not stepped into every street yet.

Its so belated, but finally we have a thread dedicated to drwho, eh?

That orange, crispy, fried thing. Lots of flour and spice? Come on, you must know Muruku! It's the most addictive thing on earth short of drugs!

And I would like to point out that only this station and Farrer Park station has tamil names on the panels....no other station has this.

now thats cool

Its a great thing to name a MRT a name that is connected to the local population

although i dont understand tamil,i speak Gujarati

i looked at the picture-map and saw something called Singapore Gujarati Bhavan..any ideas of what it is ?

eyetoeye · February 22nd, 2004, 03:48 PM

I walk to Farrer park from school frequently. Nice place, Nice smell...

Yeap...a small touch, but it sure helpos alot in giving a sense of local identity!

Singapore Gujarati Bhavan is supposed to be a place of worship according to my map...not sure if thats the way indian temples are called??

What can you do there? Just go to the MRT staion??

BTW, maybe you can help us take photos of Litte India, since its so closeby?

eyetoeye · February 26th, 2004, 11:18 AM

I bought some muruku so i could take this picture:

A little small but it aint my fault. The camera refused to focus, for some reason. Anyway, i suppose it's okay.

RafflesCity · February 26th, 2004, 12:25 PM

huaiwei · February 26th, 2004, 03:59 PM
