Here's the plan, and it's simple - we meet
for dinner at Ramu's, then hunt down the ice-cream, crabs or prata
in the surrounding area. All are welcome.
Ramu's is an Indian restaurant at 207 Upp Thomson
Rd. Free flow of salad, popadom and briyani/white rice for
$1.80, and then there are the dishes - grilled yoghurt chicken,
whole cuttlefish in squid ink, fried fish roe, curries, rasam soup
etc. (No, they're not for free 
but there's no service
charge or GST on top of that) Don't worry, there are forks and
spoons and banana leaves!
The flower crabs are at Crab Shack (same row of shophouses), prata
is across the street at Roti Prata House and so is Icekimo's
ice-cream and cheese brownies, and the goreng pisang at Longhouse
sells out quickly.
Date: Friday 20th July 2007
Time: 7:45 p.m.
Getting there: The only wee problem is that traffic along UTR
(after Lornie Road) will be slow. Approaching via Marymount Rd and
then turning into Shunfu Rd, or approaching from the opposite
direction of UTR.
Parking's available along the road outside the restaurant (not easy
to find a space though!), Thomson Ridge (up the hill just behind
the shophouses, there's a staircase leading down), and Shunfu
estate (across the road, 5 min walk).
The nearest train station is Bishan - take 52 or 410 (loop) from
the bus interchange, it's a 20 minute ride. It's also served by
130, 132, 162, 163, 165, 166, 167, 855 and 980.
