Singapore’s only pop-up urban beach, the DBS Marina Regatta, will be back at the Marina Promontory from 1 to 4 June.
Spanning 21 000 square feet – or 1.5 Olympic pools – with 151 tonnes of sand, this year’s pop-up urban beach is set to be twice as big as last year’s. With up to 2 000 pax capacity, there’s little doubt that this waterfront extravaganza is gonna be huge.
So here’s a list of what to check out at the upcoming DBS Marina Regatta!
Sunday brunches are made of these – long, slow-paced afternoons with your loved ones, your favourite dishes on the table, coupled with a picturesque view of the city on a weekend. Oh, and not forgetting a glass of bubbly in hand as you contemplate life’s simple pleasures.
Dubbed the longest brunch in Singapore (for the day long music and partying that commences after 3pm), Monti Festino is a new Sunday brunch concept by Monti, that aims to bring together the world’s finest ingredients, as well as smooth house tunes to create a feast for the senses.
Unless you’ve been living off the grid (i.e. away from social media), you would probably have seen Hana Restaurant’s famous flying noodles once or twice on your Instagram feed by now. The sister restaurant of the equally talked about Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery, also at Forum the Shopping Mall, recently overhauled their menu to beat the ever growing competition in Japanese fusion cuisine.
Update June 2020: 1460 Tteokbokki has closed.
If there’s one thing I miss the most about my summer stint in Korea as a student, it’s got to be walking along the busy, neon lit streets with a piping hot snack in hand – ok, let’s be real here, I always miss the food most in every country I visit.
ANYWAY. I was psyched to hear that a Korean street snack shop had opened in the heart of Orchard Road, at Cineleisure. Helmed by the same team behind Joo Bar, E!ght Korean BBQ and Sticky, 1460 Tteokbooki is a casual takeaway snack shop that specialises in various renditions of tteokbokki, as its name suggests!
Work in the CBD, and you’ll never hungry – or so they say. Actually, the proper saying is, work in the CBD, and you’ll be spoilt for choice every day over what to eat, because there are so many options available for the same type of cuisine.
This time, the cuisine in question is Hawaiian. More specifically, the wildly popular and healthy Poke Bowl. Hot on the heels of Aloha Poke on Amoy Street, A Poke Theory has opened its doors on Boon Tat Street. Time for a little friendly competition? 😉
Head’s up if you plan on getting your Poke fix at – they ran out of Poke bowls at 1pm on their first day. Better head down early!
You’ve probably heard of (or seen) Sophisca‘s quirky condom shaped chocolates and sponge cakes packaged like sanitary napkins, but did you know that the Taiwan specialty candy shop recently opened another branch in Singapore? This time in the basement of Terminal 3 at Changi Airport.
If you love McDonalds’ breakfast but hate waking up before noon, I’ve got good news for you: from 1 – 4 January 2015, the Golden Arches will be making their breakfast sets available all day!

For a sneak preview of their All Day Breakfast promotion, McDonald’s is also throwing their first ever Breakfast Pyjama Party tomorrow, with all the works: complimentary breakfast options, sleep accessories and customised breakfast areas for a truly Instagram-worthy breakfast.
