Notable highlights:
Amber Park was one of the best known Katong / Marine Parade area condos of its day, so it’s unsurprising its replacement chose to retain the name.
Much like its predecessor, Amber Park benefits from being close to the lifestyle stretch of East Coast Road. It’s only 500 metres, or a four-minute walk, to where the stretch begins (around Katong Shopping Centre). From there it’s family-friendly pubs, restaurants, diners, etc. all the way to the Joo Chiat area.

For the benefit of those less familiar with the East, the culturally rich neighbourhood of Katong was an area once filled with coconut plantations and dominated by seaside bungalows and pre-war shophouses for wealthy Peranakans and Eurasians.
Today, the shophouses continue to stand strong with its immaculate motifs and colourful facades while many of the bungalows have given way to high rise condominiums. In fact, Aurum Land’s acquisition of several landed homes to build NYON has effectively brought the end to landed property plots left along Amber Road.
Playing on its distinguished surroundings, NYON’s very name is inspired by the word “Nyonya”, a term which the Peranakan Chinese community commonly refer to themselves by.
A cheese and charcuterie board at Wanderlust Delicato.
It s hard to overstate the absolutely meteoric rise in popularity of charcuterie and snack boards this year. Google trends show that searches for charcuterie spiked over the last 12 months, reaching the most popular point ever around Thanksgiving. Millennials joke that growing up eating Lunchables led to a love of what my family referred to as a snack out meal. Or maybe it s just that during this weird year when many people are moving from their bedroom to the makeshift living room office, then to the couch at the end of their work-from-home routine, it s convenient to snack away. Who needs regular meals anymore?
