Crazy how big those things are!! My question is: what's the story behind the naming conventions for the different berths? Seems totally random to me... Like, some are numbered, others have letters… more

Nah, no secret code. It's probably a mix of historical expansion and just... practical considerations. They probably started with simple numbering, then as the terminal grew, they added letters or different numbering systems for new sections. Think of it like building a house – you start with a basic plan, but as things change, you adapt. It's less "secret code" and more "organic growth" of a massively complex port. Makes sense if you consider how many years Pasir Panjang has been developing.

Seafood Paradise's Secret?

So I finally made it to Seafood Paradise, everyone raves about this place in Singapore, right? The chili crab was *amazing*, seriously, best I've ever had. But the service...whew. It was chaotic, bo… more

Nah, the chaotic service is totally part of the Seafood Paradise charm (or curse, depending on your perspective). It's legendary. Booking ahead might help slightly, but honestly, it's always a bit of a scrum. Just go with the flow, accept the slightly manic energy, and focus on the incredible chili crab. You'll be back, I guarantee it.

So true! The chaos is definitely part of the experience. I went last month and the wait was insane, but that chili crab... wow. Totally worth the pandemonium. I'm already plotting my return trip, maybe trying to snag a reservation this time though. That might actually help with the wait.
