The annual Geylang Serai Ramadan Bazaar is back in full swing, and will be running for a full month from March 8 to April 9. This year’s theme is Semangat Raya, meaning ‘spirit of Hari Raya’. There will be over 500 food and retail stalls at the bazaar – slightly fewer than last year’s 700 due to ongoing works around the area.  To keep things affordable, most F&B stalls will also be offering two items priced at $3 each. You can expect smaller, mini-sized snacking portions for these, while bigger portions or signature items from the stalls will be available at a top-up. Read on to find out what we managed to get for $3 and other items that you should try. Grab a bag of fried chicken skin from Jom Lekor. For $3, you’ll get a generous amount of crispy, well-seasoned pieces . The signature lekor ($7) – Malay fish crisps – are freshly fried in-house and come in flavours like chilli kicap, samyang, and Thai sweet chilli. You can also get a bowl of customised Jom Mie (from $6) at the store. Simply choose from the range of instant noodles available, select your preferred spice level, pick your favourite sides, and watch them fry it up on the spot.  For a quick snack, drop by the Indian rojak stall Ministry of Rojak, where you can get vadai – a savoury Indian snack – and a cup of warm, comforting teh tarik at $3. If you’ve worked up more of an appetite, get the rojak-in-a-cup or sharing sets that feed up to four, consisting of an assortment of dough fritters and fried snacks like temp

Singapore's most popular attractions may include a boat-like tower with an infinity pool and two durian-looking domes and other impressive manmade structures but you'll be surprised by the amount of greenery you can find within the city-state (and surrounding offshore islands). The best way to discover this? Hiking.  Put on your best trekking shoes and go on foot to explore these hidden (and not so hidden) trails around the island. But before you get on the best hiking trails in Singapore, it might be best to slap on some sunscreen – and it wouldn't hurt to bring along some mosquito repellent. Run along the scenic Marina Bay waterfront, complete with road closures, at the T100 Triathlon that’s happening this April 2024 – it’s suitable for both race pros and rookies.

Whether you swear by them or otherwise, it can’t be denied that personality tests – and categorising one’s personality in general – are always a source of entertainment. Case in point? That never-ending curiosity surrounding things like horoscopes, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), and even frivolous topics like ‘what pizza are you?’ Well, here’s another one to try: the Innate Personality Traits test by Taiwan Design Expo that's currently trending hard in Singapore. Unlike the MBTI test with more serious questions that bring up potential real-life situations, this one is more lighthearted, and takes you on a mythical adventure in a fantasy world with cute animations to boot. We won’t give you too many spoilers, but be prepared to encounter mysterious caves, talking birds, and a sea with glittery gold water along the way. Results are mostly elemental-based and somewhat reminiscent of Pokémon types – with some examples being Light, Rock, and Steel – but there are also a couple of more whimsical-sounding ones like Fairy and Feline. Each results card shows a list of five phrases you might find yourself saying, along with nine character traits. You’ll also get to see which other innate personality types you are least and most compatible with, so you can have fun comparing with your friends and partner. There are 16 results in total, namely: Water, Light, Grass, Poison, Flying, Fire, Feline, Steel, Super Power, Ice, Fairy, Ground, Electric, Rock, Wind, and Ghost. There also

We’ve seen an avalanche of pizza-related news recently – from the opening of Beyond the Dough, to Korea’s Eat Pizza chain launch, and the world’s best pizza chef visiting Singapore last month. Next month, a famous pizzeria from Naples, Italy will be making its Southeast Asia debut in Singapore.  L’antica Pizzeria da Michele has been around since 1870 and is one of the oldest and most popular pizzerias in Naples, drawing in crowds all year round. The pizzeria is listed on the Michelin guide and has even been touted by Gordon Ramsay as a “must-visit for any pizza lover”. Photograph: L'antica Pizzeria Da Michele / Instagram Its original store in Naples is a humble roadside joint with only two items on the menu – pizza marinara and margherita. Fans of the 2010 romcom Eat Pray Love will also remember the classic Hollywood scene where Julia Roberts wolfs down an entire pizza margherita at the store.  L’antica Pizzeria da Michele already has international outposts in the US, UK, Spain and Japan. Come this April, the pizzeria will be opening in Singapore at 8 Club Street. It will be the first pizzeria in Singapore to serve pizza a ruota di carro, also known as wagon wheel pizza. This style of pizza is known for its extra thin and wide dough which stretches across and overflows from the plate. Simple, fresh ingredients are used as toppings – tomato, oregano and garlic for the marinara, and tomato and mozzarella for the margherita. Photograph: L'antica Pizzeria da Michele Barcelona

Orchard Road is about to get a lot livelier this year with the return of Night At Orchard, a series of monthly pop-up events held along our shopping belt. Previously halted for four years due to the pandemic, the bazaar’s big comeback will start with a three-day mega bazaar held over the Good Friday long weekend, from March 29 to 31. Featuring a whopping 50-over booths, the bazaar will run from 3pm to 10pm on all three days, stretching from the outdoor area in front of Wisma Atria to Ngee Ann City (Takashimaya). Aside from food, retail, and shopping options, there will also be hands-on activities such as art workshops, accessory customisation, and fun game challenges where you’ll stand a chance to win furniture from local Japanese-inspired brand Nine.N. Gachapon machines and blind boxes – both of which are all the rage right now – will also be available for you to try your luck with. Future editions of Night At Orchard will all be held on the last week of every month of the year, each with a different theme to keep things fresh for visitors each time. These can range from wellness to pets and sustainability, just to name a few. Find out more about Night At Orchard here.

Despite the numerous cafés scattered throughout our sunny island, we are always looking for new coffee spots to simply kick back and relax. Hidden amongst a block of flats at Alexandra, Kyuukei Coffee is a peaceful café with a minimalistic interior similar to that of Japanese Zen aesthetics. You may recognise Kyuukei Coffee’s adorable cat mascot from last year’s The Christmas Atelier and other events, where people mainly bought their coffee from a little coffee cart. The brand finally opened a physical café last November, but its coffee cart service is still up and running. Kyuukei Coffee serves up toasties and pastries alongside coffee brews, but the café can only hold up to around 10 people due to its small size, so be sure to come early to avoid the queues, or opt for takeaway instead. You can get the classic ham, cheese, and tomato toastie for $15, or spice it up with seck ($15), a sourdough toastie with spam, kimchi, and gochujang mayo. The pastries are also made in-house, with the canelés ($4.50) and sticky buns ($6) being popular choices amongst patrons. The café frequently hosts coffee omakase sessions ($40 per person), where you will get to taste delicious brews not available on their regular menu. The omakase includes two shots per origin, served two ways, as well two side dishes that complement the coffees. While an omakase typically means chef’s choice, the staff will gladly cater to your dietary restrictions if needed. These private sessions have limited slots, s

The next time you visit Sentosa, you might want to forgo the Sentosa Island Express to take a walk along the new Sentosa Sensoryscape. Soft launched today and opening to the public on March 14, it's a 350-metre-long connector that's dotted with six sensory gardens and an immersive night experience.  Spanning 30,000 square metres, Sentosa Sensoryscape links the north of Sentosa island to the beaches on the south. As you walk along it, you'll encounter six gardens: Lookout Loop, Tactile Trellis, Scented Sphere, Symphony Streams, Palate Playground, and Glow Garden. As the names suggest, these gardens were designed to engage all five senses – including a sixth one, your imagination.  Nature and architecture come together in each of these gardens, which have intricate structures of woven metal complemented by lush plants and the sounds of nature. But the real magic happens at night, when a unique ImagiNite experience comes alive to tell a seamless story across Sentosa Sensoryscape through interactive floor projections, augmented reality, and light shows.   The Sentosa Sensoryscape attraction will be open daily from March 14, with the ImagiNite experience starting nightly from 7.50pm. Here's what you can look forward to when you visit.  Lookout Loop Photograph: Singapore Development Corporation This elevated garden will give you a panoramic view of Sentosa's north end.
