As far as I remember, the most unusual meal I had was in Singapore when I visited there recently. It was a pork soup noodle dish and I’ve never had pork before. The reason I went to that particular restaurant because it’s the only Michelin star hotel in Singapore but and it’s also really cheap compared to other Michelin star hotels So I wanted to try it and see what all the buzz was about and And the experience of standing in line in a stall like area to get a Michelin star meal was, I would say was very unusual. And when I ordered the meal, it was hard to communicate because they were very proficient in English. So I just asked them what’s the most popular item on the menu. So I ordered that and they asked me for the customizations on the dish and I didn’t know anything about that I just say get me whatever people order usually and when I got the meal I was very a picturesque meal so I took a photo posted on Instagram and when I had the meal I would say I was underwent because it wasn’t like mind-bogglingly good. It was okay. But I don’t think I would go there again to have that dish. And my first time eating pork experience was also not very good as well. Thank you.

As far as I remember, the most unusual meal I had was in Singapore when I visited recently. It was a pork soup noodle dish, and I've never had pork before. The reason I went to that particular restaurant was that it's the only Michelin star restaurant in Singapore, and it's also really cheap compared to other Michelin star restaurants. So I wanted to try it and see what all the buzz was about. The experience of standing in line in a stall-like area to get a Michelin star meal was, I would say, very unusual. When I ordered the meal, it was hard to communicate because they were not very proficient in English. So I just asked them what the most popular item on the menu was. I ordered that, and they asked me for customizations on the dish. I didn't know anything about that, so I just said, 'Get me whatever people usually order.' When I got the meal, it was a picturesque dish, so I took a photo and posted it on Instagram. When I had the meal, I would say I was underwhelmed because it wasn't mind-bogglingly good. It was okay, but I don't think I would go there again to have that dish. My first experience eating pork was also not very good. Thank you.
