What: Cross-FOOD Puzzle

When: 21 July 2012

Where: All around Singapore

Participant(s): Corine, Geok Yeng, Pei Qi, Shu Pei, Yanjun, Yan Ping and Yee Ling

Shu Pei, Organizer:

This is my first time organizing an IPC activity. It was stressful to organize as preparation was needed before the actual day. We had to recce for food that is cheap and good and make the jigsaw puzzle for the clue to the 1st food.

I really like all participants enthusiasm when they insist on using the actual Chinese words when I told them they could use 斜音 (words with similar pronunciation) to link the food. While queuing up to buy the Hum Jin Peng, they started making plan ahead by figuring out how to link the 1st food to the 2nd and so on!

The food that I like the most is the Hum Jin Peng and the Chwee Kueh. For the Hum Jin Peng, we got to cook the 饼 by ourselves which was a nice experience. I like the Chwee Kueh’s chill sauce as it was hot and spicy and the stall added Minced Shrimp. This made the chill sauce smell heavenly.

I would like to thank Geok Yeng for accompanying me to go recce before the actual activity and Yan Ping for ferrying us around to find food and to help engage all the participants. Thanks to all participant who took their time to attend this IPC.

Corine, Participant:

Well, we saw this game coming, somehow, and have already done quick introduction on our height weight age birth dates etc. We had to play the game without saying a word, it was great fun to 比手画脚 to get our message across, 真的是默契可嘉. This randomly inspired a thought to pick up sign language to do charity with the deaf. Haha. It was indeed an exciting ipc cracking our brain and searching for food, which in turn fostered new friendship. I am looking forward to the next ipc.

Yee Ling, Participant:

The Cross-FOOD IPC was fun! On that day, we were “running around Singapore” to look for food that was link to the last name of the previous food. We spent quite some time figuring out the food in order to link it to the last food item! The organizer suggested that we could change the food name to fries so it will be easier to link with the last food “Honey Mustard Sauce” but other members insisted not to change.

In the end, we found it. The last food was fries and it taste very delicious. At first I thought that “Best Fries Forever” is the best because of the shop name, after I have tried the “Ireland’s potato” fries I felt that “Ireland’s potato” fries was the best compared to “Best Fries Forever”.

I would like take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all participants, organizer for all the help, jokes, food recommendations! Thank you Yan Ping for ferrying us around!

Taking the indoor roller coaster ride at times square~
Exploring an old town in the midst of finding “Ulu Yam”!

It is all these little things that we did that made the trip a really unforgettable one :’)
