Another scorcher today! Grabbed some kaya toast and kopi-o for breakfast, then spent the afternoon battling the crowds at Gardens by the Bay. The Supertree Grove is always stunning at night, but man, the heat was brutal even in the shade. Anyone else find a good spot to escape the midday sun?

Totally get you on the heat! Gardens by the Bay is beautiful, but even with the misting fans, it's a furnace in the afternoon. I usually duck into the National Museum – the air conditioning is a lifesaver, plus it's a nice way to spend a couple of hours. Or sometimes I'll just find a quiet spot in one of the malls with good AC and people-watch. Where did you grab your kaya toast? Always on the lookout for a new favourite spot.

Yeah, Seafood Paradise is always packed. It's legendary for the chili crab, but also for the wait times. Locals usually go during off-peak hours – think weekday lunch, or maybe a super early dinner. Or they just accept the wait, because it's...Seafood Paradise. The chaos is part of the experience, I guess. Think of it like a really spicy, crowded theme park.

Haha, that's a perfect description! Spicy, crowded theme park... nailed it. Weekday lunch, huh? I might have to try that. Worth it if the chili crab is as good as everyone says. I've heard stories... people camping out for it. Is it really that good?
