Part 4: Teochew Mee Pok Stalls all over Singapore
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Current Affairs & Lifestyle
Amigo at Bendemeer FC. Saw many eating from this stall. $4/-. Selected fried wantons. Given 8 pieces. Overall, sauce is well balanced except a tad sweet but not super sweet. No odd after taste. Unlike some others where the odd taste still lingers. Would definitely can eat here again. If cannot find anything else nice, here. Related: -

Determine facing of strange shape apartment unit
Cecil Lee replied to myfs_166609's topic in General Help
These are some considerations: 1. Difficult to just "stare" at the layout and presto.. comes an answer. 2. Normally, one has to have a perspective view of the overall building facade and it's surroundings as a minimum - to have some idea of where the frontage is. 3. Generally, the layout does not offer much clue. For example, you had added just the kitchen. But what was the usage of the other side of the balcony? It could be the laundry area etc... 3.1. In addition, other than the front door area and the balcony, not much is known of any other openings or windows of this unit. 4. If in doubt, one may have to plot two charts and if the unit is of age, see if it's history matches closer to which Flying Star chart: -
Is the Sales Brochure Useful? Introduction: For brand new just launched developments, there is no physical site to visit the completed buildings and apartments. 1. The only thing we can do is to visit the show room (which often is close-by to the site) as well as obtain a sales brochure and see the mock-up of the development. As well as try to ask questions from the sales agent (if any). 1.1. We must still try to gather as much information as we can. 2. Summary of Case Studies in this article.

Have you seen a white elephant?

For example, at the coffee shop next to McDonalds at Keat Hong Mirage. They used to have similar signs. My last visit around May 2023.. also no longer in use. LOL -

For example, Punggol Plaza food court used to have two roaming around. My last visit in March 2023... they stopped moving around. LOL -

MEMORIES of PASIR RIS Going Back in Time Pasir Ris, formerly known as "Passier Reis", dates back to 1844 in land surveyor John Turnbull Thomson's map. The name probably came from the Malay words 'pasir' (long sand') and 'hiris' (to shred') referring to the white sandy beaches. A single-door bus I used to ply between Tampines and Pasir Ris. The Worker's Brigage, formed in 1959 and officially opened by Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew 2 on 14 May 1960, was Singapore's "army without guns" and provided employment, food and lodging to the youth. It was disbanded in 1984. The mosaic and terrazzo elephant playground 3 which was built in the former Telecoms (known as Singtel) chalet complex is now within the Heritage let. Pasir Ris Beach was a seaside resort for sea recreational activities. The nearby Pasir Ris Hotel 4 was popular for parties and picnics. It was opened on 17 May 1952 at 143 Elias Road and was used exclusively by the British Air Force personnel and their families. The Golden Palace Holiday Resort 5 was an 11-acre resort which was a fishing and boating pond and is still at the same location where the present day fishing pond is. Loyang Tua Pek Kong Temple 6 is a multi-faith temple and enshrines deities from Taoism, Buddhism, Hinduism, including the Malayan deity Datuk Kong. The temple dates back to the 1980s and was moved to its current location after a fire destroyed it in 1996. Last but not least - the feathered 'residents' 0 of the beach are still making the park their home even up to this day.

Part 3: Teochew Mee Pok Stalls all over Singapore
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Current Affairs & Lifestyle
Ordered the $5/-. They also have the $4/- medium. Must say the chilli sauce is one of the best. Generous amounts of it. What attracted me to this stall was when I passed by someone eating it. And can smell the wonderful aroma of the sauce. However a let down was the fish balls, can tell is factory made. And tastes like it.
