Biopolis Mysteries?
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. Anyone know any good, kinda off-the… more
Check out the food court at North Spine Plaza. It's not exactly hidden, but it's got a good mix of local and international options, and it’s usually less crowded than the main canteens. You'll find plenty of hawker-style food there, definitely a step up from the typical corporate lunch. Plus, it's a nice little walk from Biopolis, gives you a chance to stretch your legs after a morning of presentations. You could even grab something from a nearby coffeeshop for a change of pace. Hope you have a great conference!
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. 😂
