Hand-painted posters are unfortunately quite a rare sight in Singapore these days.
Go big or go home
Big up to local art collective RSCLS. Happy to chance upon this fantastic mural at Elgin Bridge underpass connecting Riverwalk and Boat Quay. There is hope for street art in Singapore, I’d say.
Al-Jilani Restaurant
I haven’t found a better mee kuah elsewhere and this post is mostly for my sister because I’ve finally noted down the address this time so she could head there when I’m not in town for her mee kuah fix. Their roti pratas and curries are also pretty tasty too.

Being Together by John Clang
Made me smile and teary-eyed. If you are up for only one exhibition in the coming months, this will be it. Runs till 26 May 2013 at the National Museum of Singapore.
Remember not to crash into the walls or your own tail
Slightly annoying that it’s been raining way too much this new year of the snake in Singapore so far. Nevertheless, may your new year be filled with good things and pleasant surprises ! Huat ah !
p/s I’ve been finding it somewhat hilarious to say “Huat ah !” of late even if I don’t quite agree with the overwhelming emphasis on getting rich everytime we ring in the new year.
Weekend snippets #19
We were in Singapore over the weekend. It wasn’t my birthday but I received a fantastic pair of running shoes that made me want to run half marathons again.
Food frenzy #40
Quite simply the best part of my weekend spent back home in Singapore a fortnight ago.
Typography Singapore #39
The fact that they have added an illustration of durian packed in a box makes me laugh. It’s also good to know that there is no fine imposed on those caught with durian.
