Finally, Rasul got into the kitchen and cooked up a meal for us!  He had this vision of chicken briyani, mutton rendang, bergedils, lumpias and achar… Well, he didn’t have time, so lumpias and bergedils didn’t make it to the table…

But we did manage to order a very delicious kueh salat cake, made by The Chalk Farm and Mubi contributed a lovely red curry chicken and Glen brought these delightfully morsels of eclairs from Tiong Bahru.
