CyBeR 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2007 We all have our preferences. I eat tripe, but I'm guessing you don't. Same goes for durian. And while I never want to get within 50 feet of a Rafflesia, you probably want to go look for one one of these days. lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And while I never want to get within 50 feet of a Rafflesia, you probably want to go look for one one of these days. lolBeef tripe? Yes, I have tried it and I somewhat like it. I wouldn't say, I love it though. Durian? Have tried it here but they were from Thailand. I guess, one must like that acquired texture. Ha! And it smells.I had to google Rafflesia. Looks cool though.I'm actually open-minded and quite adventurous. So, no worries.Hows the weather at this time of the year?

fred 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2007 For Singapore, you can try some clubbing area like Clark Quay, you can get club like MOS there. You can go shopping area like Orchard road, or a newly open shopping center called Vivo City. Near Vivo City, there is a new club called st james power station, heard is quite nice also.You can also explore places around city hall, raffles place, and bugis, they are around the same area.

brendon 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2007 If you coming for a short trip do check out the nightlife here...Pubbing wise can go down Mohammad Sultan, there is a stretch of pubs and discos for you to choose. Try Double O seems pretty happening.Fred is right, there is a new happening place at Vivo City, call Saint James Power Station, its has many discotheques inside which house many discos. Try Dragonfly within. Its the most popular one. MOS is pretty popular but for the younger generation mostly..Enjoy your stay. But basically nightlife ends pretty early here, thats why I feel Malaysia's nightlife is much more happening. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fred 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2007 How much is Double O's drink now? I didn't go there for years, a lot of young guys there last time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brendon 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2007 Hi Fred,I am not sure been awhile since I been there (approx a year), if I am wrong you pay SGD28 for entrance only(for guys) and each jug is SGD20 or 25 bucks. If any changes the price should be more or less plus minus SGD5 to SGD10 difference only. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canadian 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2007 Thank you all.Had a good time in Kuala Lumpur. Ate lots of food and got sick. I had to burn it all off when I came back home. Amazing that people can have meals 5-6times a day.Shopping was great. Bought a watch which was cheap in Midvalley.People were OK. Singaporeans were much helpful and friendly.It took me a few days to shake off a jetlagg in KL/Singapore. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
