Everything Everywhere: McHawker: McDonald’s in Singapore

    I first came here when Scott Kurtz linked to you and have been enjoying all the media you produce.

    As for the "economic" rice, I'm not sure how they got that; in any case it's not a direct translation from the Chinese on the top of the sign. Speaking of China, I see that you haven't yet made a trip to the Chinese mainland. I recommend a trip there later this year (or next spring) when the Olympics are over and visas are easier to obtain.

    If I don't remember wrongly, I wrote you about Rice burgers by McDonald's in Singapore. That was 3-4 years ago, maybe they excluded it from the menu since then... Though I liked it a lot.
    Enjoy food as much as possible while you are there!
    That's only one of 2 things you can really do there, and people live with... the second one is shopping... not your way.

    Oh I know what those rice burgers were called! Chicken Fán-tastics. Because fán is the hanyu version of the Chinese word for rice!

    I have a great photo of myself sitting next to Ronald McDonald in SIngapore outside a McDonalds a few years back... It was quite a novelty as in my home country they had given Ronald the sack years ago...
