I has been a while since I last went for a real BBQ – those that require someone to actually start the fire and stand over the food to make sure they are not burnt. The more memorable ones tend to be those I had with old friends in my secondary school days or junior [...]

What is Pongal Festival? I did not know until today, and I just happened to stumbled upon it when I went to Little India this afternoon. In all honesty, I just wanted to walk around and take some pictures, and Little India fits the bill. When I reached the Little India MRT station, I simply [...]
