A lunch pit stop at Garuda Restaurant for Indonesia Padang cuisine at VivoCity brought us to the National Geographic Store for the second time since I first visited it in Dec 2009. People say you never forget the first time and my first time walking into the store was one of the most amazing and unforgettable “multi-sensory adventure”.
After a long, exhausting day at Resorts World Sentosa, I was ready to sit down to rest my aching feet and shoulders, I’m also greatly motivated by thirst and anticipation of simple yet delectable local Singapore dishes. In our then state-of-mind, neither one of us non-Singaporeans would have handled massive crowds like the kind you find at Singapore Food Trail well.
Baits, offers an all-encompassing menu that focuses on serving Singapore-style seafood and a myriad of local favourites to satisfy any craving. Showcasing a sumptuous line-up of meat and poultry fare such as a delectable Baits Singapore Style Chicken Rice as well as fiery Mala dishes – which both Singaporeans and tourists have come to love.
I have a small inventory of Crumpler camera neck straps and bags that were given to me as gifts over the years and the latest addition to my growing collection is a black Canon CPS neck strap courtesy of Canon Singapore and my favourite Brunei Canon distributor. Had a great time catching up over my Italian cuisine at Fratini Restaurant in Seria. They say a way to a man’s heart is through his stomach — they are not wrong!
While we’re on the subject of neck straps, I want to give this highly elusive and super wide Canon strap a mention. I don’t know if it’s a limited production item but judging from the number of enquiries I have received about this particular item over the years, I take it that its availability and source still remain a mystery. Like the Crumpler Canon CPS strap, this gorgeous red strap is also a gift which I greatly appreciate and treasure.
