Hi Fred

I have fond memories of my culinary explorations in Singapore. Best food in Asia imho. Wonderful colour & superb sharpness, with amusing captions. Tfs!

Hie Fred,

What a hilarious photo you have there. Very funny la. Singlish and Manglish (Malaysian English) are the same leh. I also use the same way as the ad above while in conversation with my local friend. Haha..very good one lah.

TFS,
Hong

Nice funny design! Well done!
