Evening by the Esplanade

Singapore — bbq chicken wings, esplanade, fried rice, hokkien mee, makansutra, orh lua, singapore-food, spa

Sunday was my day to relax at the spa. Oh yeah, I needed some pampering after Bangalore. It was an hour and half of drooling muscle relaxation at the hotel spa, Willow Stream Day Spa. Not a bad way to spend the afternoon. I actually wanted to do some wake boarding over in Bedok. The

Truffle Xiao Long Bao You Say?

Singapore — cereal prawn, chili crab, din tai fung, red house seafood, robertson quay, seafood, singapore-food, xiao lung bao

Truffles! Not the chocolate variety, but the decadent richness of the fungal kind. Low and behold they were serving it in these little soup dumplings. I had to order them along with the usual regimen of dumplings. All I have to say was that it was a great idea. The stuff was a great addition

Opposite, Yet Popular Bars

Singapore — bar, club, drinks, hangover, night life, ramen, singapore-food, singapore-nightlife

I say popular with a huge disclaimer that the term is very subjective. And when it comes to bars and nightlife, it’s about getting out and having a good time. Whether it was with good friends at a dive or drinking alone at a place with eye candy, you’re doing what you set out to

Some Down Time

India — amusement park, bangalore, india-attractions, shiva temple, souvenirs, tourist trap, work

Work actually went more smoothly than I could dream of. It was one of those days everything you planned was falling into place. I did miss one thing which was to test out one of our apps out of the Bangalore office. But like 5 out of 6 things wasn’t so bad. So what did

Straight to the Office

India — bangalore, barbeque nation, caffeine, Churrascaria, coffee, heathrow, india-food, skewers, trip

Nine hours to Heathrow and nine more hours to Bangalore was quite a commute to work. That’s what I had to do for my trip to the Bangalore office. I should add another hour for the drive to the hotel to wash up and the ride to the office. Oh man was I in for

Last Time at Candlestick

San Francisco — candlestick, football, game, newton, nfl, niners, panther, stadium

Generally I wouldn’t write about sports. And if you talked to my friends, they’d say the same thing. However, this day I couldn’t pass up writing about. It was the day I got to watch the Niners battle the Panthers. But not only did I get access to the field before the game, I got

Doraku Sushi

Hawaii — food, happy hour, home bar, oahu, waikiki

It was all about hitting the late night eats tonight. That’s because we did our run during the day. Something that set us up for the “I don’t give a fuck what’s for dinner” attitude. A perfect way for us to try out new places. At first we went with a suggestion from our friend

Post Diamond Head Hike Eats

Hawaii — crater, hike, katsu, kurabuto, oahu, travel

Yep, another hike, a popular hike too. Filled with tourists chugging up the path. It’s not a difficult hike, but it can be a hot one. There’s really not too much shade and if there’s no breeze, make sure you have that bottle of water handy. However, when you get to the top it’ll be
