A place we always return to for a good meal in Singapore is Derwish, a Turkish restaurant along Bussorah Street in the Arab Quarter. We went here once in a while when we were residents of the city state. At the time, we were fond of window shopping as there were lots of shops selling carpets from Iran (Persian carpets) and other parts of the Middle East. There were also shops selling lamps and other items of interest for tourists and residents alike. The area also hosts many restaurants, cafes and eateries for people of various tastes, preferences or budgets. We've eaten at and had coffee at some of these but have come to prefer eating at Derwish. Aside from the food and staff, the owner-manager is quite engaging and is never a boring conversation even on a busy day.

We are already looking forward to the next visit to Singapore...maybe after the proverbial coast is clear of the corona virus?
