John Dam finally got back into the Travel industry after a 3-year ban. He sold his shares of the company to his partners and was not allow to work in any travel company for 3 years. In March this year, he is back is his passion.
John flew in from Bangkok on Thursday night (21 May). On Friday, he went to visit some agents and we were to meet up for dinner. I met his business partner, Stephen and also Steve Fung, the famous Blue-Eye boy of Mr Chan (Ananda Travel)! Sheila drove and we (myself, John and Stephen) went to Chinatown for dinner. Phang was already there and we ordered Clay pot chicken rice, satay, grilled bean curd + cuttlefish. After dinner, we went to Marina Barrage for a walk. The view there was really nice!
We ended the night with a drink + dessert at Clarke Quay.....very crowded place on Friday night.
Saturday was early morning for me....my eyes were still 'asleep'. Had to be at the hotel at 8:30am. Breakfast with John, Shaun and Phang. Went to Rangoon Road for the famous Bak Kut Teh. Very peppery but delicious. Braised pig throttle not as delicious as the one in JB though! After breakfast, we went to Ah Koon Kopitiam for coffee and bread!
They continued after coffee without me....... on the way back, I passed by a bakery opposite Hong Lim market. There was only 1 item but it was running out fast. the queue was there and everyone seemed to be buying the same bun. Being a typical Singaporean, I went to queue and bought the bun! It was delicious but I have no idea what bun it was!
John flew back to New Zealand on Saturday night.
