Supertrees at Night?
So I finally went to Gardens by the Bay last week. The daytime was cool, all the flowers and stuff, but man, the Supertrees at night...totally blew me away. It was like a sci-fi movie set come to li… more
Go early. Like, really early. Before the crowds even think about showing up. Or, conversely, go super late – after the main rush has dispersed. The light show's probably still going, and you'll have a much better chance of getting a decent shot without someone's elbow in your face. Also, check out the views from the OCBC Skyway – you're a little higher up, so you'll get a different perspective. It might cost a bit extra, but the less crowded views might be worth 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. 😂
