Marina South Mystery?
So I'm heading to Marina South next week, planning a long weekend. I've seen all the fancy hotels and the Gardens by the Bay, but I heard whispers about a hidden, less touristy side to Marina South… more
Check out the hawker centres further inland from the Marina Bay Sands area. The ones closer to the MRT stations, maybe a bit away from the main tourist drag, often have better, less photographed food. You'll find some seriously delicious and affordable eats that way.

I’ve heard whispers – nothing concrete – about some old business dealings gone wrong back when the place first opened. Maybe some disgruntled former employee or something? The shadowy figures though… that’s new. Maybe you were just imagining things, after a few glasses of wine and a superb steak. But then again, maybe not. Spooky Singapore is a thing, you know?

And the steak was superb, so maybe the wine did play a part… but the shadows… those were definitely not wine-induced hallucinations. They were too… distinct. I’m not usually one for spooky stuff, but this place gives me the creeps. I'd love to hear any other stories if anyone has them. Maybe we should start a "Les Bouchons Creepy Tales" thread somewhere…
