In order to navigate the many malls in Singapore, one must be thoroughly caffinated. Thus, there are 62+ Starbucks, 30+ The Coffee Connoisseur, and 42+The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf locations. You’re never in need. Trust me.
…and to think I thought I could only enjoy an Ice Blended in LA. Au contraire!

It’s a joke with my family that when I return home to St Louis and head to Plaza Frontenac (made famous by Nelly in “Ride Wit Me”…or at least, so I’d like to think) that they say, “she’s returned to the mothership.”
Being a Midwesterner, I love malls. They remind me of high school — afternoons spent trolling not for dudes, but duds. Wearing a uniform in high school contributed to my love and perfected my skill of shopping.
In Singapore, it’s a whole other story.
There are 70 some malls. There’s a mall for electronics. There’s one for kids. There’s one for luxe goods. There’s even one for beauty/treatments.
It’s overwhelming – even for an expert. Needless to say, there’s nothing that I need…
After a pretty easy flight (thanks to Singapore Airlines business class), I arrived in Singapore. Not surprising, the airport was super clean – even the bathrooms. They were nicer than, well, certainly any other airport bathroom I’ve ever seen… The baggage claim reminded me of a Cacun hotel lobby…
Off to Singapore for a few months. Thanks to my pals for an awesome dinner down the alley. Thanks, T-Bone for the table. See you soon.
