What it means to be Singaporean

So, national day is just in another 2 months or so. What does it really mean to be Singaporean?
To the bunch of us, we went on a journey to find the true meaning.

Alright, I was kidding.

We found a place away from home to savour local fare. Although it wasn't the most authentic of the few shops that serves sg food, I guess we should be happy enough we managed to lay our lips on the Hokkien Mee, Mee Goreng, Kaya Toast and Teh-Tarik.

The shop is adeptly named "Lau Pau Sat" and it sits at Sanlitun. Apparently, it uses the ceramic cups that traditional Hainanese coffee shops have. Yes, its Hainanese! You didn't get me wrong! :)

The boss of this eatery is actually an ex-army cook but please don't get your expectations too high yea? Nonetheless, it was nice hearing some random person sitting in the same eatery rambling on with Singlish and our supposedly weird accent.
