After visiting BurgerUP Express at Northpoint City, I had the urge to visit their main outlet to try out their customised burgers as well as to check out the other food offerings. I visited their outlet at Punggol Waterway Point which was about an hour MRT ride from where I stay. But I tell you,…
Our Hawker culture has come a long way. Hawker centres here in Singapore are like food courts without air-conditioned, and they are usually run by locals who have inherited their businesses from their parents, generations after generations. As a kid, I grew up eating hawker food, and my Dad would always hunt for the best…
There’s something magical about the seaside where the sea and land meets. You hear the waves and feel the breeze that caressed your face. The smell of the salty sea invigorates you. You might be able to taste the saltiness of the sea water when it crashes against the shore, spritzing a spray of seawater…

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri! It’s a wonderful time of celebration as the Muslims from all over the world break day fast on this day which marks the end of Ramadan. The month of fasting begins one month ago and that’s also the start of Geylang Serai Bazaar, a night market where Muslims in Singapore could…
You could hardly go wrong with cheesecakes. It’s one creamy and decadent dessert mixed with a tinge of the savoury cheese. The thick crust completes that whole explosion of cream cheese flavour. The very first cheesecakes may originate from Greece and made popular in America but here in Asia, we have our very own ‘cheesecake…
In my opinion, the best dish to represent Singapore is Nasi Lemak. It may not have its roots plunged deeply in Singapore’s soil but it’s one of the dishes where all of the ethnic groups in Singapore could enjoy it for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It’s a staple dish back in those kampung days and…
