Another scorcher today! Managed to snag a seat at that new hawker stall near Tiong Bahru – the char kway teow was phenomenal. Spent the afternoon dodging the downpour at the National Museum, surprisingly peaceful despite the rain. Anyone else brave the crowds at Orchard Road today? My feet are killing me.
Biopolis Enigma
So I'm heading to Biopolis next week for a conference. Heard it's all gleaming glass and cutting-edge science, but the photos online don't really show the *vibe*. Is it all sterile and corporate, or… more
Biopolis is pretty much exactly what the photos show – sleek, modern, very corporate. Don't get me wrong, it's impressive architecturally, but "vibe" is… lacking. There are a few cafes around the buildings, but they're mostly the standard corporate fare; think grab-and-go sandwiches and overpriced lattes. Nothing particularly charming or quirky. Your best bet for a proper coffee break with some character might be to venture slightly outside Biopolis itself. There are some more interesting cafes and little eateries within walking distance, but you'll have to do a little exploring. Think closer to the residential areas nearby.
