Buses, trucks and more jams

Reflections of buses at a bus interchange.


Row of cars queuing up for the Shell $1 petrol promotion. The queue might looked long, but it took only about 20mins before it was our turn. Everybody just moved on patiently in the queue and it was not chaotic at all!


Another morning jam to go through. Let's roll down the window for some fresh air!


Another road work on the road. Nowadays, whether it is a new estate or old estate, town or suburb, as long as there is a road, there is road work on it.


These gas cylinders are still been used for cooking in those old housing estates.

Iced Kopi-C, Prata and Bak Kut Teh

At the cafe outside the zoo, I saw the most expensive iced kopi-C I've ever seen at more than SGD3! Why? Because it's extra extra grande!


The Cheese Prata Shop is a popular place for university students to go for their prata craves. The Banana and Cheese Prata is pretty tasty, with cuts of sweet ripe bananas and matching cheesy texture. On the other hand, the Mushroom Prata is kinda like plain prata with can mushroom slices slotted into it. Tasted plain, dry and tasteless.


Ya Hua Bak Kut Teh is a popular supper spot and their famous Bak kut teh is no joke! Their peppery white soup (refillable!) and tender ribs are to die for! Besides the soup, side dishes are important as well, and their salted vegetables and braised bean curds are tasty but not too salty at the same time. What are those big pots at the back? The side dishes of course!


The Cheese Prata Shop sells all kinds of pratas but I still prefer the old school egg prata.

Ya Hua Bak Kut Teh serves good Bak Kut Teh but be prepared to pay. A meal for 3 consisting of 3 bowls of ribs and rice, 1 plate of salted vegetable and 1 plate of braised bean curds will set you back with about SGD27.

A very Singaporean buffet dinner

Puddings at a local buffet table. The durian pudding and ginger pudding in white bowl are especially delicious!

Photographs are taken using Nokia N97 camera phone, at Plaza Market Café of Fairmont Hotel. The $40+++ local buffet dinner price tag is slightly on the high side, but at least majority of the food are delicious. Recommendations are their Laksa, Rendang Mutton, Ayam Buah Keluak, Loh Bak, Nasi Brani and Lemon Chicken. The Durian Pudding is to-die-for!

Animals in the City

Herds of cardboard cows are found in the city again, and this time round they are in yellow polka dots and sun-glasses!

Car wash at petrol kiosk

When the car is dirty, yet too lazy to move my butt, it's time to visit Car Wash at petrol kiosk.

Let's have Japanese curry at Curry Favor!

A painting of an overweight Mona Lisa found on the wall of a little Japanese curry cafe. Guess she had one too many curry!


Japanese pork stew curry from a little Japanese curry cafe on Stamford Road. The tender meat and strongly flavored curry is simply delicious!

Photographs are taken using Nokia N97 camera phone, at Curry Favor. They have the spicy version of the usually mild Japanese curry, and both just as nice. The portions are pretty large and the half-portions are more than adequate for most OLs.

Road works and new apartments

Roadworks are found everywhere in Singapore and they never seems to end!
