I found this random bit of graffiti art on what I think is a power box for the pedestrian crossing light where the Park Connector path crosses Pasir Ris Drive 1 at Pasir Ris Town Park. I don't know what the significance is, but the word "chan" makes me think of the popular internet image boards 4chan and 2chan, where it's short for 'channel'. Or... it could be someone's …

Every mall in Singapore that I've been to has a food court that is, in reality, just an indoor hawker. The same basic varieties of food are served in the same basic way. It's a very convenient way to eat, especially if you're not willing to spring for an expensive meal in a sit down restaurant. These food courts (and hawkers) in Singapore often have much better prices than …

Singapore is often hailed as a 'food heaven', and in some cases that's true, especially if you have the money to afford the 'authentic dining'. More often than not, it's impractical to constantly go to high end restaurants, so I get excited when I see cuisine from 'home' that's listed at an affordable price. It was with great excitement that I saw French Toast on the menu at …

Yesterday afternoon was a little cool out, surprisingly considering Singapore's typical weather this time of year, so my wife and I were both in the mood for something soupy. Typically, that means a trip to Manpuku for their Aoba Hokkaido Ramen, but our last visit was a little less than appealing, so we decided to try something new. There's a restaurant on the top floor of …

It’s been about a month since I left Singapore. I didn’t spend much of last month there either. This post is sort of overdue, but I’ve been busy and it’s probably not a bad thing that I ga …

The last thing we had to eat before leaving Singapore was at Swensen’s, which is an odd circumstance since I vowed never to eat there again about a month after reaching Singapore. Well, it …

Having recently left Singapore I thought it was cool to see Singaporean restaurants in Manila, specifically in Megamall. I suppose it makes sense that there would be Singaporean restaurant …

I was just thinking about the serious lack of personal space available in Singapore. It’s become even more apparent now that I’m outside the country, in the Philippines. The Philippines c …

My wife and I are constantly finding and trying new restaurants and I’m kinda sad that this one slipped our notice until just two days before I leave Singapore. The Soup Spoon has some GRE …

We’ve gone to Manpuku quite a few times, but we still haven’t tried everything the place has to offer. That’s not so much for lack of opportunity, but lack of desire. You see, Manpuku as a …

In 2008, Singapore’s government announced plans to turn a former school into a worker’s dormitory in Serangoon Gardens. This was met with heavy criticism from the areas residents. Accordin …

As a guy, I can’t deny that one of the things I’ve found myself enjoying about Singapore is the amount of legs, and how much of those legs, you can see on an average day while at the hawke …

The most used entrance and exit for the Somerset MRT station is the one that opens into the new 313 @ Somerset mall. Even before that mall was there, that entrance was still the most used since it opened onto Orchard Road, which is the main shopping strip in Singapore. I actually never even knew there was another entrance and exit until I was directed to go back into that …

The booths looked really comfortable but they were all full. The booths on the other side of the restaurant were roped off, since the restaurant wasn't that full. On Wednesday I went to meet my wife for a late lunch and she recommended we try out the Kim Garry restaurant that's on the basement level of Tampines 1. I'd never had Hong Kong style food before, at least that I …
