Sweet, savory, spicy, balanced, and just damn delecius.


Sup Talang.

This dish, deserves a little saying here.
Travelling SE Asia earlyer this year, this meal was one of the memorable one`s.
Being a dish that is created of the meltingpot culture in Singapore (think its half malay, half indian this one), you had allot of different flavours going on.
Since seeing god old bourdain eating this on no reservation, ive wanted to mess myself up in this stuff.

I went with a couchsurfer, friendly enough to show me, the hawker stall with this type of food.
Sitting down after ordering, first thing i notice, is the "blod spatter" on the wall, from people dropping the screamingly red bones, in to the lovely sauce. "dont wear a white shirt"

Anyway, they arrive simmered muttonbones, in a "screaming" heavenly sauce, a bit of cabbage and baguettes.
As ive done my homework, I ask for a straw to suck out the marrow.
Dropping happened a couple of times, but it is part of the experience.
the balance of the sauce, and the perfect thickness makes the dish, it was out of this world.
If you ever get around to Singapore, ask around for this dish.

Also, get to china town, from the square with the temple, take the first escalator at the hawkercenter up to the food court, and go to the first juice/shake shop you see.
A little lady and a guy with glasses are the owners, buy a guyabana juice, and just feel the happyness.
This is by far the king of juices, creamy, sour, refreching and sweet at the same time.
Sugarcane juice is a nice way to start your day asswell.

Basicly everything you eat in this city, will make you happy, from hotpots, dosais, and porkbuns, to some of the delecius soups found in the Chinatown area.
Ohh and its on my trip, the cheapest place for mangosteen, maby i was just lucky to be in peak season.

Any foodie ore chef with interrest in asian cooking, released in this city, will find paradise in a shoppingmall city.

Ill be back!
