On Sunday, we had an advance celebratory lunch for Mom-in-law. MIL hinted that she’d like Indonesian food, so we made reservations at Tambuah Mas. This was our first time at the Paragon outlet; previously, we used to go to Tanglin Shopping Centre, which we remember as being good and consistent. First to arrive, the dish [...]

Time: 1pm. Weather: Cold, rainy, miserably grey. State of tummy: Totally empty, furiously growling (due to skipping breakfast). Prescription: Nasi padang.

Yes, in this old shophouse, Bose speakers blare the likes of Diana Krall and A.C. Jobim. But what people really [...]

After a fun-filled Sony Alpha DSLR outdoor workshop at Kampong Glam, the empty tummies were growling to be filled. So off we headed to the nearby Hajah Maimunah for a yummy nasi padang lunch. I was surprised to see that Hjh Maimunah now has a cleaner, more contemporary look with new countertops, furniture, re-tiled walls [...]
