Singapore Zoo @ Mandai

It’s been decades (at least 1 decade for sure) since I’ve been to the Singapore Zoo. It’s a little further and bigger than what I remembered (or maybe imagined) 🤭 Luckily the weather wasn’t too bad, having rained in the morning. In fact, we waited for the rain to stop...

There are a number of banks which reward us for crediting our salary with them. While I used to default to Standard Chartered, my favorite bank, the interest rates of their Bonus$aver Account have been adjusted a number of times, from when I 1st signed up with them....

No One is Perfect

Genki Sushi @ Jurong Point (SG)

Genki Sushi has been on my mind for quite a while now. Genki is our go-to for Japanese food in Singapore. It may not be comparable to higher-end Japanese restaurants, but it’s definitely value-for-money. And some of their dishes are even better than Ichiban. Genki...

Arab Street Turkish Restaurant (SG)

What an interesting dining experience, eating at Arab Street Turkish Restaurant in Yishun. Definitely fulfils the keyword “hidden gem”, as a uniquely decorated restaurant under a HDB block. Hope we weren’t too excitedly noisy for the residents upstairs. Though…that...
