MULTICULTURAL SHOPPING 2
Another neat place, Gary Lee, 20 Smith St. (65/221-8129), carries a fantastic selection of linens imported from China. These hand-embroidered gems include bedding, dining linens, tea towels and handkerchiefs, and other decorative items for the home. They're priced right, and won't break on the trip back home. For something a little more unusual, check out Siong Moh Paper Products, 39 Mosque St. (65/6224-3125), both of which carry a full line of ceremonial items. Pick up some joss sticks (temple incense) or joss paper (resources of thin sheets of paper, stamped in reds and yellows with bits of gold and silver leaf). Definitely a conversation piece, as is the Hell Money, stacks of "money" that believers burn at the temple for their ancestors to use in the afterlife. Perfect for that friend who has everything? Also, if you duck over to Sago Lane while you're in the neighborhood, there are a few souvenir shops that sell Chinese kites and Cantonese Opera masks-cool for kids.
