New Warehouse Mall: Big Box Singapore at Jurong

Big Box is huge and spacious, but I’m not that impressed. It seems to be a neater Mustafa but without the personality and I am guessing better prices. Address: 1 Venture Avenue Singapore 608521

New: The Seletar Mall

Another new mall we checked out last month, but I was tardy in writing about is Seletar Mall.  The layout is all right.  Rather spacious with a high ceiling and open middle area.  Food choices are similar to what you can … Continue reading

iO Italian Osteria at HillV2

The restaurant is at level 2 of HillV2 and you can dine in pleasant surroundings as the place is filled with light and spacious. For once I didn’t feel bloated after a meal, but it was pretty expensive considering the … Continue reading

New Mall: HillV2

I do like this new mall which is near the Hillview estate in Upper Bukit Timah, as it’s spacious, isolated (not near an MRT which means less chance of crowds) and more a food place than a shopping place which … Continue reading

Komtar: New Mall Next to City Square in JB

Komtar is open in Johor Bahru (JB). This new mall has many of the upmarket stores that Singapore has in Orchard Road. But I find the prices here higher and the selection smaller. I wish we had a sit down … Continue reading

Japanese New Year at Liang Court

The year of the sheep (goat or ram) is coming. I am looking forward to cute sheep figurines all over China town and elsewhere. Also spotted tempting pies at a new Ma Maison store.

Moomin at ION

It used to be pretty difficult to find Moomin toys. But last week I spotted this at a store on the 4th level of ION selling cards and gifts. I find these characters created in Finland in the 1945 so … Continue reading

Christmas Decorations at Paragon

Merry Christmas. It’s past midnight and Christmas already. Just wanted to share photos I took at Paragon. Haven’t been there in a while and thought of checking it out. Not much of a change.

Wheelock Place Christmas Decorations

Wheelock Place is always stunning with it’s permanent conical shaped Dome that automatically looks like a Christmas Tree when decorated. You feel like you’re inside a glass tree.

Unique Christmas Decorations at Causeway Point

At first I thought they were lanterns and then from another angle I realised there were hot air balloons among fluffy clouds.

Christmas at Bedok Mall

I found the huge art installation out front eye catching but very weird looking. Just like at Changi Airport, the mall has a bouncy castle for Christmas.

The Christmas decorations at Marina Square looked a tad tacky and I found the gnome kinda creepy looking.

Japanese Mall in Singapore: Liang Court

Had to photograph Liang Court’s supermarket which is currently decked out in preparation for Chinese New Year. I always get a feeling of serenity here. Also you are surrounded by some of the cutest Japanese children as they are many … Continue reading

Central: Nostalgia at Goods of Desire

It’s a Hong Kong store but I was impressed by their nostalgia inducing uniquely Singapore items on sale. If not for the too steep price I might have gotten some of these cards.

Westgate Mall is Open Too (directory picks)

I was truly impressed by this mall. It’s pretty classy and reminded me of malls in town. It’s smack in the middle with malls JEM on one side and JCube on the other. I was most impressed by Isetan and … Continue reading

Bedok Mall is Open (my pick of the directory of shops & dining places)

Bedok Mall is open way earlier than expected. I like that it’s connected to the Bedok MRT but other than Wingstop (chicken wing chain from USA that hasn’t crossed my radar) nothing else seemed that exciting. For food I would … Continue reading

New Robinsons at The Heeren impressed me

When B first told me about how Robinsons has taken over at The Heeren and is now almost like a Harrods (taken over the whole building apart from the Costa Cafe) I thought he might have read exaggerated reports, but … Continue reading
