Eat, walk, eat, Part 2
Kueh Pie Tee for me was the highlight of this Singapore stop, foodwise. Audra found this place that she thought made only
Popiah, but she learned later that they actually started making Kueh Pie Tee, so we walked over through the intermittent rain and found it. The first time I had this, I raved about it in a blog (2010), and it was as good as I remember it. I loved that the place had been around since 1938 too.

Otah
Audra had another stop planned to try a handmade Indonesian specialty called Otah. This is a grilled fish cake wrapped in a banana leaf. The fish cake is spiced in a way that makes it really tasty. I guess it was sort of like a Singaporean Power Bar (protein snack). You don't eat the leaf.

And now, dinner
We walked back to rest for a while before we had to head out again for dinner. Dinner was a seafood restaurant by the Strait so a great view with a wonderful sunset. We ate such great stuff. Scallops, delicious bread (fried, no wonder it was delicious). Tofu and mushrooms (with crab and eggs), and finally, the grand finale: black pepper crab. We wore bibs.

Giant trees and lights
We finally stopped walking and took a taxi to the last stop for the day, the giant trees. This was really cool. I have to just post a picture at this point because I have to board the plane back to San Francisco (I'm in Hong Kong on a layover).
