2 Carbs and Salsa on the Side

The 2Bears ate for the whole bear clan today. They started with pasta at the very bright and breezy Turquoise Room at Gillman Village (Lunch No. 1 @ 12 pm) and progressed to slurp slippery hor fun and accompaniments at Chinatown (Lunch No. 2 @ 3 pm). Ms Bear demolished a whole shui gao soup on her own since Mr Bear turned up his brown nose at chopped-up (vs whole) prawn filling. I like the prawn bits dotting the dumpling filling spreading the flavour around, but to each his own shui gao. Mr Bear gives a big paws up to the ones at Crystal Jade.

The 2Bears were by then suitably fortified to climb 3 flights of stairs up a Chinatown shophouse to see their friends, the Chikus, at salsa class. That's where you go when you want to see a group of strangers uncomfortably paired and in embrace ("make sure there is no gap between your arm and hers", "bounce her up and down"). The 2Bears made a quick exit and succumbed to a carb-induced afternoon coma.
