New Year’s Resolutions
Well, it’s the beginning of a new year, 2010. This is the time to reflect on the past year, evaluate what you’ve done and then make new resolutions. My holiday weekend was packed! I went out to meet friends for dinner, did some shopping, visited Little India and Mustafa for the first time, went to…

Singapore’s 2009 New Year’s Eve Fireworks
Walking through CitiLink Mall to the Esplanade area was a minor nightmare. The place was jam packed with people. After we finished our dinner at ‘New York, New York’ we took a break at the restroom and then braved the crowds. It wasn’t too bad until we got to the escalator that goes down, where…

New Year’s Dinner at ‘New York, New York’ at CityLink Mall
We were running behind when it came time for the fireworks show so we had to haul ass down to the Esplanade area without stopping on the way for dinner. Luckily, there’s a ‘New York, New York’ restaurant in CityLink Mall, which you walk through to get to the Esplanade area. The last time we…

Say Cheeze, Tampines 1
My wife and I finally got around to trying this place out. I’d actually decided not to eat there because the decor is hideous. I mean, I want to be nice, but there’s really no excuse for how horribly ugly the place was decorated. So, I’d written it off. It didn’t look that appealing. I…

Example of Figure Photography in Singapore
One subculture of Japan is people who have a serious fascination with figurines. I’m not talking about the Precious Moments porcelain figures your grandma keeps in her cupboard either. I’m talking about anime or manga related figurines. These collectors sometimes go above and beyond simply filling shelves with their favorite figurines. They sometimes take a…

Are Singaporean Importers Hiding Nutritional Information?
Imported goods in Singapore come with a label that shows who imported the product, their address, where the product is from and other miscellaneous information. After living here for so long I’d gotten used to seeing them, but one day I was looking at my jar of Peter Pan peanut butter and I wondered why…

Merry Christmas Everyone!
Another Christmas has come and gone. Like last Christmas, I spent this one in Singapore. The celebration was small. It was just my wife and I, but we had a good time. We had ham, veggies, toasted bread, a log cake and champagne. We have enough left overs for a week’s worth of sandwiches! We…

Another Round of Christmas Decoration Photos From Around Singapore
Back in November, I made a post with photos of the Christmas decorations on Orchard Road for this year. Since then, quite a few have been added, but I didn’t get shots of them all. There’s just too many! Orchard Road really turns into a sea of lights at this time of the year and…

The Med at Orchard Central, Almost Ready For Business
At the beginning of November my wife and I went to Orchard Road to look at the Christmas decorations. While we were there we walked through Orchard Central. A lot of the good decorations are inside the malls after all! While we were exploring, we noticed that the very bottom level of Orchard Central was…

Trattoria Italian Restaurant at 313 @ Somerset
A few months ago I was complaining that I hadn’t been able to find decent pizza in Singapore, but I think that quest has finally ended. You may be thinking that Singapore has Pizza Hut, but that doesn’t do it for me. Even in the US I think Pizza Hut is gross. The stuff is…
