This is a really fun activity to go sample some good Indian food as well as do some shopping for various rarities. You can take the MRT from nearly anywhere you are at in Singapore and arrive right in the heart of Little India. You can make a day out of this if you are ever looking for an activity.

Singapore Salted Egg Sotong-Wong Chiew Resturaunt's Tasty Entree
If you haven't had salted egg anything, you MUST try it! My favorite is called Salted Egg Sotong. Sotong is fried squid. It's like the same shape and texture of onion rings but BETTER! Combine it with some green chili's and some red sauce and you're in heaven. Great splurge food especially when paired with an ice cold Asahi. This cool joint is great because you sit outside and can enjoy the outdoor atmosphere and partake while taking in the breeze and smells of the various foods being cooked and served. Great local place for a decent price. In Singapore, Salted Egg is becoming a common flavor for different things such as chips, fish skins, etc. It sounds a little odd at first but give it a shot and you can go ahead and thank me later. This little corner joint, Wong Chiew's, serves many different dishes and I haven't had a bad meal there. Great service at a decent price with a definite local feel. It's open almost 24-7 and people are seen eating breakfast there as well, which I haven't personally experienced yet. I have to say they serve the best sweet and sour chicken and dim sum I have ever had. Served fresh and steaming. Absolutely delicious.

Cambodia's Famous Pub Street in Siem Reap
Southeast Asia is notorious for street vendors and markets. It's part of the culture and for most, a way of life. Visiting Cambodia's pub street is a testament to the hard work ethic of the Cambodian people. Here you can find just about everything you are after in a market. In this area there are great tourist souvenirs for an affordable price, local food to eat, snacks, drinks, clothes, you name it There are things here that you won't see in many other places. There are bottled solutions (not sure if it's liquor) with cobra's in them, real taxiderm crocodiles, and upscale knock off brand ladies items. We really enjoyed the dried mangos, the lemongrass peanuts, and the cheap t-shirts. Located in Siem Reap you can eat all kinds of different types of foods here. The Mexican restaurants are even good. Expect to be pestered by the vendors but don't be offended or irritated as this is their means to making money. Similarly, don't feel rude by not acknowledging every solicitation during your peruse.

Khmer Mansion Residence in Siem Reap Cambodia
Our week long stay at Khmer Mansion Residence in Siem Reap Cambodia was an amazing experience. They really went the extra mile with absolutely everything. When we arrived at the airport and got out VISA on arrival, we were greeted by Chovey's friendly face just outside the terminal in the pick up area. She was holding up a Khmer mansion sign with our name printed on it. She patiently waited longer while we got our SIM cards for our phones. The driver then loaded up our suitcases. During the brief trip from the airport to the hotel Chovey gave us a run down on what to do locally as well as some historical facts. Once we arrived we were given some tasty drinks to sip as well as refreshing cold towels while we went over a few things and our luggage was taken to our room. After paperwork was signed and reviewed we were shown to our room. The elevator had an uplifting scent of lemongrass. Upon entry into our room we were pleasantly surprised to see that they had our names spelled out on the beds with carefully placed lettering made from reeds. The room was very spacious and the refrigerator stocked with water and other beverages. The balcony overlooking the pool and small courtyard area was relaxing as well. We had coffee out there every morning. We were also able to take morning walks around the city and over to pub street every morning from mansion. Here's pub street: https://youtu.be/FGVR34lh7YM.
There were also tuk tuks (don't know if I spelled that right) readily available across the street to take us anywhere we wanted to go around Siem Reap. Breakfast was complimentary every morning. The kitchen/diner folks were amazingly gracious with customer service like no other. Breakfast started at 6 and then went to 10:-00 which was very nice because this gave you the choice of either sleeping in or eating when you return from an early morning walk. It was very nice because there was a breakfast buffet with a nice variety and also a full menu from which to order from. The menu was wonderful and I don't think there is a bad item on there. They would seat us every day, take our orders, make us nice latte's, and prepare the food quickly. The dinner here was amazing as well. We were served a complimentary 4 course dinner one night. I ordered room service dinner a couple times as well. They made a very good loke lock. I'm sure I'm spelling that one wrong as well but it was my favorite Cambodian dish. We were able to take one of the best tours we've ever taken. It was an all day tour riding motorcycles across the countryside. We were also able to have scooters delivered right to the hotel on two separate occasions. These were great to ride around and see the city as well. Our overall experience here was outstanding. I highly recommend this place if you ever visit Siem Reap.

Burger King Siem Reap Cambodia
This BK was cleaner than any BK I've seen in either other SE Asian Countries or the US. The price was reasonable and the food was tasty. We were hungry from traveling and site seeing all day to this really hit the spot for us. Friendly and professional workers there. They even had a parking lot attendant outside who keeps everyone's scooters and vehicles in order as well as their helmets. On one occasion I saw him covering up some scooters with piece of cardboard and turning over helmets so as they wouldn't fill up with rain. I gave him a small tip for his efforts. Great operation here.

MacRitchie Reservoir of Singapore
This is one of Singapore most beautiful places to visit. The water is clear and the weather is hot. You can see all kinds of wildlife during this hike as well as rent kayaks if you choose. You'll need to pack a bunch of water to drink on this one. The terrain is flat and there are no bikes allowed on the trails. Put this one on the list of hikes to do.
