Botanic Gardens

My first wholesome breakfast in Singapore, breaking away from the rather conventional Polar chicken pies they dispense right outside Raffles MRT. Besides feeling like a pie - I am now an official victim of chain-stores consumerism asshole. An amphi-theatre smacked in the middle of a 'jungle' ~ with a jazz performance happening in during the nite time. Other than the possible blood donation drive with my dearest malaria friends, performances should be great with everyone getting a pretty good view of the theatre.
A man-made swamp for you...
Smacked on the other end of the Botanic Garden is the Halia Restaurant - supposedly serving you funky gingerfied dishes.
Water features isn't exactly the best thing around but hey, two thumbs up for preserving (or rather creating) something like this in a country where land is sparse.
