I'm sorry I'm not answering your question... but there is a one-price store at Emerald Hill? I live right next to it and I never knew. Could you tell me where exactly it is located?

The reason why we prefer this show to MediaCorp stuff is that it is relevant to us. Singaporeans will prefer local stuff that they deem relevant to their lives, which probably does not include Stephen Colbert's satire on American politics.

Sabai – Authentic Thai @ Ngee Ann City Level 4 or This is near to my office :wink: :wink: :wink: http://www.sukhothai.com.sg/home.html I second EPL, Sabai - Authentic Thai is great!! Another thumbs-up for Sabai! A bit pricey compared to other Thai restaurants, but I was 100% satisfied with its inte...

The one at Marina Square is still there as far as I know, and there is also another one at Ngee Ann City(Takashimaya).

In Suntec City, a Japanese buffet has special lunch offer. If you finish your lunch within an hour, then you'll only have to pay $18 or something like that... Quite a good value IMO.

Think ZZOOzzoo is refering to a soba restaurant, Shinbashi. Too bad you didn't enjoy it. But I reckon their soba is the most authentic one found in Singapore. Soba can be cut in fine or thick. It can be much thicker than what Shinbashi offers (called Inaka Soba). Its real texture is chewy, not like...

I think most sushi bars are generally decent, but I have yet to find somewhere spectacular. One place I advice you to avoid is the soba restaurant(forgot the exact name, but it's right next to "My Mum's Cuisine") in the basement of Paragon. It claims to be "authentic" and "expert" and blah blah but ...

I watched it last week. It was the first time I saw West Side Story on stage so I can't really compare it to other productions. I thought it was decent overall. The singers are really great and choreography was also very good, but one of most annoying thing was that I couldn't make out what the hell...

Since I've been to both Cairnhill Crest and The Light, I'll lay out a bit of comparison for you. In terms of outer looks, The Light @ Cairnhill looks definitely more stylish and modern compared to Cairnhill Crest, but there are many other things you should consider. Facilities: When you looks number...

After trying and miserably failing to teach my family how to operate home theatre using millions of different remote controls, I've decided to get a programmable remote control with user-frindly interface. The one I'm looking for is Logitech Harmony remote controls. http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm...

I guess it's relevant to this thread. If you purchased Rabalder 3-way socket from IKEA recently, immediately return it because it may give you electrical shock.

As my family's moving out of serviced apartment soon I need to decide which ISP I should go with. Since my family's internet use is quite heavy, I'm going to subscribe to the top-end service. Currently, the fastest Singtel offers is 25mbps and Starhub offers 30mbps, and Singtel one is a bit pricier ...

@citizen deek: Thanks for your insight! I'm certainly showing that to my dad, although it's not likely to make any difference because the deal's done. I guess the poor finish at initial construction explains why they're rebuilding many elements such as balcony, lobby, etc. My mom and I already visit...

Thanks a lot for the helpful replies everyone! Traffic is not much of an issue for my family, because my mom is not likely to drive in Singapore for a year or two. She doesn't speak English and she's afraid of getting any trouble because of that. As for grocery shopping, we'll probably frequent Taka...

My family (3 of us) are planning to move to Cairnhill Crest which is still under construction, and I wondered what's the general consensus or opinions are. Any information on when the construction is to be finished would be appreciated too. Also, is living in Cairnhill area convinient? Our family is...
