What Food do you think you will miss most........

If you were to migrate from Singapore?
This question just popped up over lunch so I thought why not turn it into a post
For me, it has to be Singapore Chicken Rice. I eat this horribly fattening food often enough especially when I can't decide what to eat Strangely, I never get sick of it. -
wanton mee...feifei's

Mee poh tar, and most definitely char kway teow. I miss fishballs and definitely the hum. Honourable mention: fei fei wanton mee.
-
the food that i missed most whenever i go overseas is laksa.

Hehehe I prefer the Kuching Laksa. Too much coconut milk makes me feel sick in the stomach. Kuching Laksa is like a rich spicy prawn and chicken broth soup base with a hint of coconutOriginally posted by Deportivo:the food that i missed most whenever i go overseas is laksa.

1) Durian
2) Curry puffs (esp. those from Old Chang Kee & A1!)
I missed char kway teow alot as well as carrot cake, but when I went back with the intention of stuffing myself silly with them (aka eat them everyday if possible), I found that I couldn't take the oiliness of the food anymore! -
Rhonda we can try smuggling your fav foods, hard frozen so that you can pop it into the microwave or something to heat it up to eat when we pay you a visit

Woohooo!!!Originally posted by elindra:Rhonda we can try smuggling your fav foods, hard frozen so that you can pop it into the microwave or something to heat it up to eat when we pay you a visit
I've taken this one step further... I've bought lots of cookbooks featuring local and Asian delicacies so I can hopefully cook them when I'm there!
Also thinking of persuading my mom to ship over the Prima pastes over to me on a regular basis! hehehehe!!
Hmm... maybe, can start a small business on the side over there? -
Oh! I thought of the Prima pastes over as well. They are really good! Heheh or I can smuggle over the frozen chilli crabs sold over in the supermarket though I'm not sure how good are theyOriginally posted by Rhonda:Woohooo!!!

not sure how it is now... but the total lack of economical asian food which is not total crap was a business opening waiting to be exploited...
and when i say "economical" i mean about A$6 for a small plastic tub of crappy fried rice and a side of "beef in black bean sauce"Originally posted by Rhonda:Woohooo!!!
