What's a Singaporean girl to do if she misses local food back home so much?
She will go to the lengths of spending bloody 7 sing dollars on a bottle of chilli sauce (read: tiny) from a chinese restaurant, 5 sing dollars on a bag of green beans (read: small) and 5 sing dollars on a bottle of oyster sauce (read: pathetic). Afterwhich, try frying noodles chinese style with italian mee and voila, you get char kway teow (actually taglietella), char peng (actually risotto) and chay been hoon (italian capellini). I guess they call it fusion?
