      I will go to bukit merah sometimes..I quite like older estates. The feel is different.

      Same for me too...Although it can get a bit smelly sometimes,I do make it a point to bring both girls to revisit the places in Lengkok Bahru and Bukit Merah where their dad grew up.We even entered to revisit my primary school building which turned into a MOE Cluster Centre at Hoy Fatt Rd several times this year.Everything is still intact.

      Just that the security guard told us that we could not enter the the offices in the buildings to disturb the staff working there.

      As for today,the girls spent most the time packing my bags because I am flying to the US tomorrow.

          Although I am living in Woodlands,I make it a point from time to time to visit the NTUC at Bukit Merah,Queensway Shopping Centre,the big 5 markets/hawker centres there,IKEA,Tiong Bahru Plaza for old times sake.My parent's flat is still there.

          Definitely have things to buy and things to eat over at that area.The nasi padang stall at the coffeeshop besides my primary school has been there for over 30 years.

              Is it nice?TB Market overall food standards dropped badly since I moved out of there 10 years ago.

              I like to visit the Big 5 markets over there.

                what are the big 5 markets?

                lor mee ok only..as I was outside so more convenient to just eat out to fill up the stomach, I will usually go for heavier taste of food as at home usually deprived of richer taste food. i went for its garlic, vinegar and chilli.. take it all away nothing special lor. after reno, the hawker ctr is cleaner.

                  I visit ABC and Alexandra Markets most of the time.

                  Glad that DD2 's saga is over and I am leaving tomorrow.But planning a trip to ABC market with the girls once I am back.
