Dried chrysantemum flowers and goji
Hey y'all!My boyfriend who loves to eat dried goji berries and use dried crysantemum flowers in his tea, is having a few hour transfer flight in Changi tomorrow. He would love to take the MRT to the town to buy those lovely items but neither I nor him know where is the best place to find the dried goji and the chrysantemum at the same place.
We where wondering if Chinatown is the best place but what shopping mall/area in particular..?
I hope someone of you could share us some inside information about this topic so he wouldn't have to wander hours around Singapore.
Thanks already,
Toini

how many hours does he have?just in case he doesn't have time to make it beyond the airport:

not 100% sure that they do carry dried chrysanthemum flowers at their airport outlets, but it's listed under their products: http://www.euyansang.com/index.php/product/health-foods/tea-series
there's contact info in the first link, so he could check ahead.
if he has time to go into town, ZTP Ginseng Birdnest Pte Ltd has a chain of outlets that sell what he's looking for:

they have an outlet in Paya Lebar MRT station...go down the steps at Exit A & turn right, walk straight & the outlet is on your right (under the station platform/tracks) before you reach the road (that runs perpendicular to the tracks).
in the rare event that this ZTP outlet doesn't have what he wants, cross the aforementioned road & head for the basement 2 level of Singapore Post Centre (the huge building immediately north of the MRT tracks that has a McDonald's), there's a large NTUC Fairprice supermarket that might have them (I've seen these 2 items sold at other NTUC Fairprice outlets, but haven't looked out for them in this particular outlet).
btw most people here would be more familiar with the name 'wolfberry' than 'goji'.
