A few weeks back, I covered Frankel Estate in East Singapore and readers asked to see more of the area: specifically, Siglap, Dunbar as well as Kembangan. I didn't want to bombard you guys with too much of the East in one go, so I've covered some other estates in between but today, we're back in the area again. This.
As an avid karaoke fan, I used to be the organiser of our weekly office karaoke sessions every Friday evening. Naturally, that inclination to organise gatherings among my colleagues meant that I would usually be the one to help plan for birthday celebrations or year-end holiday parties.

It isn't just central Singapore which has all the best eats anymore. These days, you can count on cafe-hopping fun in the 'hoods, among them the up-and-coming region of Serangoon and Kovan.

There’s no denying that the new Phase 2 Heightened Alert restrictions took many of us by surprise. With no dining-in permitted until mid-June, many eateries were forced to pivot to takeaway and deliveries overnight.
Inevitably, this has caused a significant drop in earnings for many independent F&B outlets. Though we can’t support them by making a reservation, ordering takeouts and sharing our favourite foods on social media are some of the ways we can keep them going.
Here, we check in with some of our favourite eateries to find out how they are coping with the new measures, and what they have in store for customers during this period.
