1st, our meeting point was set at Kaki Bukit traffic junction towards Ubi, heading towards East Coast direction. That is the best meeting point for the both of us due to the location that both of us stay.

Upon meeting up, we ride a few streets down to the absolutely famous “Gold Rolex King” Hokkien Mee food stall along Jalan Eunos.

Following on, we headed to city riding through Joo Chiat Road, we made our way through Kallang and our next destination was MUSTAFA… So what were we doing at Mustafa? Oh, we went there to buy the Motorola ear piece for the walkie talkies I brought along for this city ride… it looked something exactly like this:

As the rain was getting heavier, we decided to go for Swee Choon Dim Sum, not really taking a break but more of trying to find a hiding place to prevent ourselves from getting drench in the rain if it gets heavier. We ordered some dim sum at Swee Choon, it will be quite embarrassing for not ordering any food and occupying their seats, here’s what we got! Their famous signature dishes -- Fried Mee Suah Cake and Steam Egg Chicken… nice!

After we cleared the delicious dim sim, the next destination went further down towards Keppel PSA… yeah, you are very smart indeed! Yes, thats correct… we were going to Sentosa Island.

Admission charges for cycling is $3… And we caused a minor traffic jam at the gantry, the cashier at the gantry lacked of a dollar change so she had to run to the next one to get me my change…

Sentosa Island’s biggest challenges are its steep uphills and downhills and they are always up and down… We couldn’t make it on some uphills so we did the “push push” technique… lol…

We went straight for the beaches and nearly got lost as Alex and I went different directions, luckily we still have our newly bought walkie talkie sets with ear pieces to communicate.

We finally met each other again just outside Cafe Del Mar, and after taking a short break, we went roaming along the beach pubs and headed towards Palawan Beach and that’s where we witnessed a very happening beach side event they held, superb lightings and sound system!

Ok, done with Sentosa… should we be going home??? Nope… next place >>> Chinatown… which is pretty nearby. So whats good at Chinatown at about 2 -- 3am? Ah… Here’s the good deal… Tiong Shian Porridge Center… Here’s the stall image…

Alex ordered a fish porridge which was a big mistake, take note >>> ANY porridge is good there except for fish porridges… Approximately, we rested an hour, the porridges sold there are super hot when served, so we took our time and have a good break before going back east…

Next stop, we made it all the way back to Geylang and I had Teo Chew porridge there but the food wasn’t exceptionally nice, never going back there again…

That is all for this city ride of ours… We’ll be back next week… :D
