Gorgeous Architecture: Marina Bay Sands

There are some buildings in Singapore that are such eyesores and so poorly designed that I wish they would take a cue off the innovative architecture of the Marina Bay Sands. I know I have photographed this building so much … Continue reading

Liang Court: Katsu Don and the Cute Meerkat Sign

Ate at the only restaurant located at the basement. It was a bit stuffy that day and the air-conditioning wasn’t very strong. There was some kind of food fair going on. And the clothing shop with the flower garden theme, … Continue reading

Brunch on the Bridge (TWG at Marina Bay Sands)

TWG might be a tad snooty (still not as atas as PS Cafe), but it’s the place that most women who love high tea, would appreciate. The cutlery and table settings were all just so pretty. The natural light flooding … Continue reading

Captures why Art is so critical in our lives. Absolutely loved the melting blue clock. There were portraits of the artist himself. I thought he was handsome as a young man. My cousin thought the moustache made him look like … Continue reading
