Other than blogging on MyCarForum, one of my favourite pastime is to hunt for good food in our little island. A few months ago, I tried this restaurant that sells Taiwan porridge along a row of shop houses at Upper Changi Road. It was love at first bite and I have been frequenting that shop ever since. However, I would make sure that I go there early in the evening for a reason.

 

Due to its popularity, the restaurant would get quite packed at around 6.45pm on a weekend. Tables would be laid along the corridor of the shop houses and on the parking lots. Due to the spaced occupied by the tables and chairs, the remaining space for a car to maneuver becomes significantly reduced. This is evident in the photo above (apologies for the poor photo quality). I have observed several times whereby the diners have to make way for a car to turn in. If the driver makes a wrong judgment, the consequences could be disastrous.

 

The above explains why I go to the restaurant early, in order to secure a table along the corridor or inside the restaurant. This way, I can eat in peace without having to watch my back. Here

  • Tennis: Beautiful game that doesn't know how to count

    Wimbledon just concluded yesterday (congrats Sinner!), and it's a reminder of how much I enjoy tennis as a sport. I used to play it some (wasn't particularly good), and still tangentially follow it nowadays (the Roland Garros final this year between Alcaraz and Sinner is an all-time classic).  There's something intrinsically mesmerising about the sport, I think even for spectators who have never picked up a racquet. At first glance, it may seem like just two people (or four, but doubles is

    I have a new favourite game - Dave the Diver!

    Nowadays I think many people have a Nintendo Switch, considering how it is often given away as a free gift when you sign up for credit cards,etc. Instead of just playing Mario Kart, Overcooked and Pokemon, I have another game to introduce to you all! The game is Dave the Diver. This game has completely captivated me with its delightful blend of adventure and relaxation. From the moment I dove into its vibrant underwater world, I was hooked. The gameplay mechanics strike that perfect b

    How are we already in June?

    During lunch with my mother a couple of weeks back over yong tau foo, I was asked about my opinion on the latest NDP song. And of course, as expected of any chronically insular millennial, my reaction was: “Huh? There’s a new NDP song?” But of course there is. And I say this not to disparage the wonderful songwriters and musicians that provide an anthem to remember the nation’s birthday by annually, but to knock into my own mind the harsh reality: We’re already in mid-June.  It fe

    Are forums outdated? I try to find out by asking AI

    Is your boss asking you to explore and learn how to use AI to improve the quality and efficiency of your work? Yup, you aren't the only one in that boat.  Whilst exploring new AI tools, I figured: Why not use it to answer some burning questions that I have? This time, it was about whether forums are outdated. Yes, forums like this one that we are on. I remember how before social media became popular, and before apps like Carousell existed, forums were where I chatted with others t
