Blog Action Day 2009: Climate Change
If you’ve been keeping up with Blogger news, either via the Blogger Twitter account or on the official Blogger Buzz blog, then you’ll have heard about this already. If not, here’s a quick rundown: Blog Action Day is an annual event, held on October 15th (which is already is here in Singapore), where a single…

Roti Paratha (prata?)
Just one of the many delicious dishes I’ve had the chance to enjoy since moving to Singapore. I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again. Letting stereotypes pushed on you by the media influence the way you behave towards certain people is ridiculous and it could cost you some mighty good meals too! If…

Marché at Vivocity: Mediocre and Expensive
About three weeks ago my wife and I went to Marché at Vivocity. We’d seen the place quite a few times while at the mall and while passing through on our way to Sentosa, and we always thought about stopping there to eat but we never did. It’s a long way from where we live…

Ion Mall
When Ion Mall first opened downtown I took a look through it. Well, it wasn’t exactly when it opened, but it was close. Maybe a week later. I came in from the ground level and went up a few floors and poked around a bit, but I wasn’t that impressed. Most of the stores are…

What Can I Expect in the Philippines?
A guy I know told me he’s going to be making a trip to Davao in the Philippines and asked me if I’d been there, and what he could expect, and if I had any tips for him. So, I gave him a quick heads up of what you should really keep an eye out…

Excuse Me Sir, But You Have Soup On Your Shirt
I saw this set up at Bossini a few days ago in some mall or another. I don’t remember where. At first I was like, hey that’s pretty neat. I looked at the shirts and I was even thinking it was pretty cool. Then I realized that it was a move to pull in suckers.…

Coconut Cakes
I’ve posted about these before but it was a long time ago. These are treats you can get from a small push-cart vendor in Food Republic at Vivocity. They’re incredibly delicious but the reason I felt it was worth posting about again is that I found out that they’re Indonesian treats. The maid where we…
