Food recommendations? Too many... but i'm quite sure that here, most of the stuff which are oily/unhealthy are DELICIOUS. (sporeans... think char kway teow, you tiao, hokkien mee etc etc...)
Hee hee... quite true most of the stuff that are good are unhealthy at the same time... but they still taste so good!
lolz~
your name sure is famous!

*gasp* How do you know? I like Japanese food too much already so I opened a restaurant and employed a Japanese chef to cook......... NOT!! Hahahahaha.... But if it's really my restaurant then yeah, of course I'll give you all a discount!
Well, I don't go IMM frequently and the last time I went there was to eat at kfc with friends... Where is it? Maybe I go and have a look myself!

Well, for guys maybe you can get ties... If I'm not wrong some tourist spots like Taka or the new DFS opposite Far East sell ties with orchid motifs on it. And for the young ladies maybe you can get scarfs or little tot bags made of the Singapore Airlines uniform cloth... (this is subjected to whether your relatives and friends like the cloth design or not.. ) If not you can always get them T-shirts or stationary with the airline cloth design on.
I think the souvenirs for tourists are most common in the Orchard area... the new DFS building opposite Far East is a really good place to get local souvenirs for tourists. You can check that place out. I went there when the shop just opened and believe me... most tourists will stop by to shop before going back to their countries... it's big (I think they have 3 or 4 floors), and it's not called the Duty Free Shop (DFS) for nothing

some tourist spots sell those, or u can go those orchird farms in mandai or wherever... yep, its real orchirds, in a small little air sealed bottle with all nutrient essentials in that little bottle,, can last like dat for up to a year or 2, u can take it out of the bottle to grow into a potted orchird after that
one sells for $3 (small), $10 (med) $20 (big).. i bought a big one, hehe.. the small one i bought 3 yrs ago is still kicking in the bottle
doubt anywhere else on earth sells such stuff, unique gift
