Singapore Daily Photos: Sophisticated Christmas at ION Orchard

Posted on November 24, 2010 by bookjunkie

The interior and exterior of other malls pale in comparison to ION. I guess the only other Mall just as sophisticated is the Mandarin Gallery but ION is many times larger and attracts a whole lot of tourists.

Starbucks at Sembawang Shopping Centre

Posted on November 22, 2010 by bookjunkie

I like Starbucks not only for their iced latte but for the total experience. I find the decor very conducive for writing and reading. But some outlets are just better than others. The one at CityHall used to be a … Continue reading →

Posted on November 19, 2010 by bookjunkie

The animals are a great way to remember where you parked at Suntec City. This place is always so crowded on the weekends, but the mall is starting to feel a bit old and tired. It’s in need of a … Continue reading →

Singapore Daily Photos: Christmas is in the Air at the Malls

Posted on November 19, 2010 by bookjunkie

This time I was at Centrepoint. The supermarket had a new flavour of M&Ms that I have never seen before. Mint chocolate – sounds lovely, but I didn’t buy it. There seems to be a whole area dedicated to Strawberry … Continue reading →

Singapore Daily Photos: Christmas at Ikea

Posted on November 18, 2010 by bookjunkie

Ikea is one of the best places to browse to get that Christmassy feeling. I know it’s commercial, but it’s so nice in a country where people really don’t decorate their houses much, apart from an artificial Christmas tree.

Posted on November 15, 2010 by bookjunkie

Gosh I sound so commercial and like such a coffee addict, but I find the x’mas merchandise at Starbucks the most tempting. I am a total sucker for mugs with snowmen and penguins on them.

Singapore Daily Photos: Christmas at Meidi-ya

Posted on November 15, 2010 by bookjunkie

My favourite supermarket. The Christmas decorations are most tastefully done I must say. At some of the malls the decorations can be a tad gaudy and tacky, but the Japanese always get it right. Have you ever wondered why some … Continue reading →

Posted on November 4, 2010 by bookjunkie

Felt like re-blogging (with a few edits) what I posted half a year ago because tomorrow is the 5th of November and I’ll be celebrating Deepavali in Singapore. As a child I had always been fascinated by Christmas. Santa Claus, … Continue reading →
