Ichiban Boshi at Nex
I was hankering for the simple kitsune udon I had at Osaka, and Ichiban Boshi has a good enough version that comes in a smaller half bowl portion (S$4.90). It’s not the healthy kind of sushi but I do love … Continue reading

The carpark was still a bit of a mess last week, so this sign popped up. That’s the great thing about Singapore. Even if there’s a problem, it’ll get fixed real soon.

Why is Texas Chicken Not Called by it’s Real Name?
The real original name of Texas Chicken is actually Church’s Chicken, named after the founder George W Church. When it started way back in 1952, it was called Church’s Fried Chicken to Go. I guess the word Texas in countries … Continue reading

Singapore Daily Photos: Checking Out Nex
With all the food blogging, I need an exercise bike. Saw an AIBI exercise equipment store at Nex. I wish Ikea was here instead of Courts. But Courts has electronics as well. I am not sure what HTC is, but … Continue reading

Nex Serangoon Mall: Carpark Jam and Charges
The jam has actually eased slightly, but it does help to have the Nex security guards as well as the auxillary police, direct traffic. Otherwise the various delivery trucks would just block the way, like I saw one of them … Continue reading

Parking at Nex
It wasn’t so bad. I am guessing that the guards are doing a good job of controlling and helping to direct the traffic. At some point the top most level carpark looked almost empty, but as we were leaving, it … Continue reading

Swiss Bake Cafe (Nex)
Another place with a decor that exudes warmth is the Swiss Bake Cafe. It seems to be owned by Movenpick going by the labels on the sugar packets, plates and napkins. At least this place is more enclosed than Starbucks … Continue reading

Singapore’s Newest Mall: Braving the Human Crush at Nex (Part 5 of 5)
The Nex logo decked out in Christmas lights and joined by Winnie the Pooh and friends. Dangerous for kids or just to warn kids to keep away? I’m sure a mall would’t put up something without a barrier if there … Continue reading

Singapore’s Newest Mall: Braving the Human Crush at Nex (Part 2 of 5)
I wonder when we dropped certain British words in favour of American ones. I noticed that among the locals I know, we now use the word mall instead of shopping centre. My spelling remains British as this was the system … Continue reading
