New Year in Chinatown

We went to Chinatown to soak up the atmosphere pre new year. We went with our photography guru who’s only available after eleven. So we ended up roaming the streets till past 2 am on a week night. Not good for work the next day, but we survived. It was fun and bustling, good crowd and nice street food. We had kebabs and coconut water. Somehow the guys still managed to gulp down a bowl of wanton noodles after!

Looks like chicken is more popular. We preferred the beef though.

Turkish Ice cream man, gamely posing for a photo, I’m not sure why there were Turkish kebabs and ice cream here, but there was!

    I notice that there’s a red element in every photograph, even right down to the kebab one! How festive :)

    Happy New year!

    The photographs are beautiful. What kind of ice-cream did the Turkish vendor sell?

    I’m not sure, I didn’t look! But I’m guessing its the wonderfully chewy vanilla and pistachio ice cream.
