Dang! Indonesia’s really freakin’ far.  This was my first time flying with a lay over so I chose Singapore – I’ve heard from different people that the food in Singapore is the best!  I was anxious to find out for myself.  If the airport food is good then can you imagine what it tastes like outside?  Mmm MMM!
Super tired from an 18 hour flight, we wandered the airport looking for just the right spot to get a little taste of Singapore before our connecting flight to Indonesia.  We finally ended up in Terminal 2, F gates where we decided to try Wang’s cafe (hee hee…wang).
Of course I had a hankerin’ for some noodles so I ordered the Mi Siam a thin rice noodle soup.  The warm soup in my belly was nice – especially after that looong flight.  At this point I was also over airplane food so these noodles were extra extra tasty.  I’ve never had Mi Siam before this…it tastes savory, sweet, spicy, nutty – toasty, a little sour…like tamarind or tomato sour.  Topped off with fried tofu, bean sprouts, chive and a boiled egg.  Thin rice noodles in soup is not my favorite but these were alright.  I liked the soup a lot…can’t wait to find the instant version of this somewhere!
