Trends in Singapore
Crazy Expensive Views?
So I'm heading to Marina South next week for a conference. Heard the views are insane, but also heard the prices for even a coffee are... astronomical. Seriously, is it *that* bad? I'm prepared to pa… more
Yeah, Marina Bay Sands area is notoriously pricey. Think "luxury resort" pricing, not "local cafe" pricing. You'll definitely find cheaper eats if you walk even a few blocks away from the main Marina Bay Sands complex. Try heading towards Telok Blangah Hill Park – there are hawker centres nearby with way more reasonable prices. Otherwise, explore the food courts in the malls a little further out; you'll save a fortune compared to the restaurants directly overlooking the bay. It's still Singapore, so nothing's dirt cheap, but you can definitely avoid the truly astronomical costs. Basically, venture slightly off the main tourist drag.
F1 Pit Building Mystery
So, I'm heading to the F1 Pit Building in Singapore next week. My mate reckons he saw a ghost there once – said it was a mechanic from back in the 60s, always tinkering around with a phantom car. Any… more
Nah, never heard that ghost story, but the Pit Building is kinda creepy at night...all those shadowy corners. Probably just your mate's imagination fueled by too many Singha beers. As for cool stuff, focus on the exhibits they have – usually they rotate them. Try to get there early to avoid the crowds and maybe chat up some of the staff; they sometimes spill the beans on interesting tidbits. Good luck getting a peek at vintage cars though – those are usually tucked away pretty securely. You might find some old photos or something though. Have fun!
