In recent years, a few boutique hotels have sprouted in Tiong Bahru, the oldest estate in Singapore. Amongst them is Link Hotel, as well as Wangz Hotel where we enjoyed a meal and stayed for a night previously. Just across the street from these two hotels lies the charming Nostalgia Hotel. With a name like that and its location in this historical neighbourhood, it would surely appeal to history buffs!

Hong Kong cafés do draw in the crowd. Just look at the number of casual dining chains that have popped up in Singapore over the last few years. Whether it is Xin Wang Hong Kong Café or Hong Kong Kim Gary, the formula is similar – large colourful menu with an extensive selection and prices that fall within the lower mid range. The up-and-coming C.Nai Hong Kong Cafe offer a […]]]> https://sparklette.net/food/c-nai-hong-kong-cafe/feed/ 14 https://sparklette.net/food/chilis/ https://sparklette.net/food/chilis/#comments Mon, 11 Jan 2010 12:07:34 +0000 http://sparklette.net/?p=920

Tip: To set the mood, listen to Chili’s Radio Network while reading this post. They have some GREAT music over there! With a name like Chili’s, you can be sure that the food is sizzling hot and packed with flavour! Chili’s Grill and Bar, the casual dining restaurant chain originating from Dallas opened in Singapore in 2009, its 200th restaurant worldwide. It brings to town an expansive and diverse menu […]]]> https://sparklette.net/food/chilis/feed/ 19 https://sparklette.net/food/sapore-italiano/ https://sparklette.net/food/sapore-italiano/#comments Tue, 03 Nov 2009 09:25:02 +0000 http://sparklette.net/?p=894

Sapore Italiano has opened on our island with style. Whether it’s espresso coffee in the morning, a pizza for lunch, or a nice after-work aperitivo (with a free buffet spread!), you can enjoy gourmet food all day long at the Raffles City Shopping Centre caffé-bar. Welcome to gourmet paradise! Update on November 15, 2010: Sapore Italiano has moved to the National University Of Singapore along Bukit Timah Road.

It is no secret that i love Harry’s Bar. The food, the crowd and the music are fine by me. But more importantly, it is my preferred location for catching the weekend soccer matches. Recently I purchased the Harry’s card happily. It is perfect for the regulars (and for people that don’t really care which bar they go as long as it is a bar). The moment I handed over […]]]> https://sparklette.net/food/harrys-card/feed/ 7 https://sparklette.net/food/watch-live-soccer/ https://sparklette.net/food/watch-live-soccer/#comments Fri, 14 Aug 2009 09:44:11 +0000 http://sparklette.net/?p=868

For such a soccer-crazy nation like ours, I find that many people do not know WHERE we can actually catch the game. Sure, we can watch the English Premier League (EPL) matches at home. Yet, the atmosphere of having other like-minded fans cheer and jeer along with you in a pub, with some chips and a beer in hand, is so much more awesome! Banana Leaf at Pub Street, Siem […]]]> https://sparklette.net/food/watch-live-soccer/feed/ 32 https://sparklette.net/travel/cambodia/siem-reap-banteay-srei-ta-som-ta-prohm/ https://sparklette.net/travel/cambodia/siem-reap-banteay-srei-ta-som-ta-prohm/#comments Wed, 03 Jun 2009 15:11:08 +0000 http://sparklette.net/?p=840

With just a day remaining on our stay in Siem Reap, we knew we had to step up our game and explore as much of it as possible. Having gotten a taste of the Angkor ruins the previous day, we certainly craved for more! Here’s the route we mapped out: Banteay Srei – “citadel of women”, or “citadel of beauty” Ta Som – small temple that offers fabulous photo opportunities […]]]> https://sparklette.net/travel/cambodia/siem-reap-banteay-srei-ta-som-ta-prohm/feed/ 11 https://sparklette.net/travel/thailand/bangkok-day-3-chokchai-steakhouse-manchester-united-restaurant-bar/ https://sparklette.net/travel/thailand/bangkok-day-3-chokchai-steakhouse-manchester-united-restaurant-bar/#comments Wed, 14 Jan 2009 14:10:59 +0000 http://sparklette.net/?p=811

The mornings in Bangkok are extremely cool and comfortable. When we stepped out of our hotel each morning, we would be like, whoa, chilly! Compared to the hot climate in Singapore, the 15C weather was pure bliss. That’s why shopping at Chatuchak Weekend Market in the morning feels a whole lot more bearable. Unfortunately by 10-ish, the weather gets pretty hot. So we did our last bit of shopping in […]]]> https://sparklette.net/travel/thailand/bangkok-day-3-chokchai-steakhouse-manchester-united-restaurant-bar/feed/ 28 https://sparklette.net/food/harrys-bar/ https://sparklette.net/food/harrys-bar/#comments Tue, 23 Sep 2008 05:54:14 +0000 http://sparklette.net/?p=771

I know I’m going to get much flak just for saying this, but I’ll say it anyway. I’m a die-hard Manchester United supporter. Being surrounded by not-so-manchester-united-fans at work, on some mornings when I come in, I would find that the #7 ronaldo jersey and the club crest I display at my workstation have been playfully tampered with. So what does that have to do with this blog post, you […]]]> https://sparklette.net/food/harrys-bar/feed/ 15
