one of my favorite local delights is chicken satay (meat skewers), and it has to be the muslim version. somehow satay made by the chinese just don't seem to taste as good, perhaps due to a different use of spices. the best place to get good satay is probably lau pa sat ...
over the past weekend my friend and i were invited to enjoy a 2D1N stay at bintan lagoon resort. our task was simple; review the resort and check out its facilities and restaurants. see, this 12-year-old resort (highly popular among singaporeans) has just renovated some of its rooms. we had the luxury of staying in one of these newly refurbished deluxe rooms ...

somewhere in singapore, i chanced upon this globe sculpture recently. even though this installation has been here since 1989, it was only my first time seeing/noticing it! what first grabbed my attention was the fact that it looked all shiny from afar. as i drew closer, i realised there was more to this globe than meets the eye! ...
