Singapore’s French Toast is Not French Toast
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…

Ajisen Ramen @ Tampines Mall
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…

Review: Clash of the Titans (2010)
Clash of the Titans is an exciting movie that delivered exactly what I expected: an action packed, special effects extravaganza that kept me entertained from start to finish. If you haven’t seen the movie yet, it would be a mistake going into it thinking you’re going to walk away with any deep revelations about the…

Review: Hei Sushi @ Downtown East
After having a great time watching Clash of the Titans my wife and I walked down to the lower level of Downtown East to look around and decide on dinner. We hadn’t eaten at Hei Sushi before and the conveyor belt full of sushi looked pretty appealing, so we got in line and waited to…

A Trip To the US Embassy in Singapore
Yesterday I had the opportunity, or really a need, to go down to the US Embassy here in Singapore. This was my second trip there since being in Singapore. I remember the first time I went I was really impressed with the whole idea of being in an embassy, because how many Americans actually get…

Singapore is Blooming!
Over the weekend while my wife and I were on the MRT green line we noticed that the trees are starting to bloom with large white and pink blossoms. You can see it especially well between Pasir Ris and Tampines MRT stations. It’s definitely no sakura blossom viewing event, but it’s still attractive. I wasn’t…

Preparing the Cats for Immunization
With my upcoming move, I’m working on getting my cats ready for export. It’s a long and annoying process that’s adding stress to an already stressful situation, but luckily things are working out fairly well for us so far on that front. First off, some kind people were willing to donate funds towards helping my…

Yamazaki @ Tampines 1 Mall
With all of the times we’ve walked right by this place I can’t imagine why we never poked our head in to look around. I guess it was the really fancy cakes they had in the display cases facing out towards the mall walkway. Tampines 1 isn’t really the place I’d think of when I…

Triple Homicide At Tampines 1
When we walked into Tampines 1 earlier this evening, there was a large crowd gathered around the opening on the first level, looking across to the other side. We were curious to see what was going on, so my wife and I quickly joined the crowd. On the other side of the opening there was…

Singaporean Funeral Procession
Yesterday afternoon I was sitting at the kopitiam near where I live and I heard music, so I turned and looked up the road. I saw what I thought was a parade and, being curious, I started taking photos. I quickly finished my coffee and then moved down to the road where I could have…
