Bringing Bahru

Gosh! It's been 5 years since my last SG visit.

This year will definitely be the year I'll go back.

In the meantime, let me have my fill of SG feels.

Yup, Tiong Bahru bakery is finally open.

Delicious, lah!

Bring me Bahru

Okay, Gateway 2. You're giving me more and more reasons to be impressed.

Look what's opening here soon.

Tiong Bahru!

More and more, this nearby mall is becoming the place to be.

Okay Tiong

Tiong Bahru is one of my favourite places in SG. Hands down.

The Tiong Bahru Market has so many yummy food stalls. Whilst we go there for the Chwee Kueh, one of the most popular stalls there is the Tiong Bahru Hainanese Chicken.

There's always a long line, so we never got around to trying it. Despite going there so many times.

Well surprise, surprise! I've finally tried the famous Tiong Bahru Hainanese Chicken, without even going to Tiong Bahru.

Jo and I met up for lunch at this resto in Uptown BGC. The fact that most of the people eating there are Singaporeans is already a good sign. And after Jo tried their specialties, she enthusiastically commented: "This is legit!"

Looks like I'll be going to Tiong Bahru more often. The MNL version, of course.

Another one of my SG haunts is finding its way to MNL!

Tiong Bahru Bakery is a usual stop whenever my travels take me to SG. It’s near my fave Tiong Bahru Market Hawker Center where my go-to Chwee Kueh Place is.

They’ve got a lot of awesome eats. My faves include their croissants, the Pan Au Chocolat, and their eclairs! Gosh, enumerating them is making me hungry already.

Don’t make us wait long. Please open Tiong Bahru Bakery, stat!

Who are the people in your neighborhood?

Was looking through the photos on my iPad and found this shot from the SG trip that my niece and I took last February.

We were in Tiong Bahru, and we had our usual fill of Chwee Kueh and iced desserts. After that, we walked around the neighborhood, and Kai said that if she were to live in SG, she would choose Tiong Bahru as her neighborhood.

And I told her, I felt the same way, too, and I've felt that way since I first went there years and years and years ago.

Great minds do think alike.
