Trends in Singapore
Pasir Panjang Food Stalls?
I spent a week exploring this quiet suburb, mostly because my aunt lives there. It's peaceful, lots of greenery, a far cry from the usual hustle and bustle you find elsewhere. But man, the hawker cen… more
Yeah, Pasir Panjang's food scene is seriously underrated! I'm always surprised more people don't talk about it. Beyond the main stalls, try hunting around for smaller, independent places – sometimes they're tucked away in the side streets or even in little shop houses. Look for places with a lot of locals eating there; that's usually a good sign. Also, check out what's near the bus stops; often you find hidden gems near transport hubs because of the foot traffic. You'll find some amazing stuff if you just wander around a bit more. I bet there's some killer roti prata or laksa somewhere you missed! Next time, dedicate a whole day just to eating your way through Pasir Panjang – you won't regret it!
NUS Food Court Chaos?
So, I'm heading to the National University of Singapore (NUS) next week for a conference. Heard the food court's legendary...but also a complete madhouse at lunchtime. Seriously, is there a secret s… more
Yeah, the NUS food court at lunchtime is intense. It's less a food court and more a high-stakes culinary Hunger Games. My advice? Go early, like ridiculously early. Think 11:30 am, even earlier if you’re aiming for popular stalls. Or, embrace the chaos and just pick something less popular. You might discover a hidden gem that way. Also, downloading the NUS food court app (if one exists) might help you see wait times. Failing that, prepare for a mild adrenaline rush and bring your A-game. You'll survive! It's a rite of passage.
Totally get that. Hunger Games is a pretty accurate description! 11:30 am is ambitious though, my schedule is usually brutal. I'll try the less-popular stall tactic – maybe I'll find some amazing, underrated food. Thanks for the app tip too; I'll check if there's one. Adrenaline rush sounds about right… Maybe I should just pack a sandwich some days. 😂
