VivoCity and Harbourfront Centre, Singapore

Vivocity
新加坡怡丰城(VivoCity)和Harbourfront Centre(港前中心)是无缝相连的两个购物中心,都位于地铁HarbourFront这一站上。港前中心直接连接邮轮码头,搭乘快艇前往印度尼西亚仅需45分钟,很多新加坡人去潜水。VivoCity规模要大很多,结构优美而复杂,连接前往圣淘沙岛的轻轨与大桥,是进出圣淘沙的门户,生意超级好。晚上还可以上到Mount Faber Park看夜景。

Ng Eng Teng 1+1=1, NUS Museum, Singapore

About the artist
Ng Eng Teng (b. 1934) was an artist who worked across the various disciplines of painting, drawing, sculpture and ceramics. First trained at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA), he went on to further his art education in the United Kingdom, between 1962 and 1964. He returned to Singapore, post-independence, in 1966 to set up his artist studio and was actively practising as an artist until his eventual passing in 2001. His works have been exhibited internationally in Australia, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, and United Kingdom. His last work, The Last Masterpiece, is completed posthumously and is presented in this exhibition.

About the collection
The Ng Eng Teng Collection at the NUS Museum consists of over 1,100 objects donated by the artist to the university, between 1997 and 2001. It remains, at present, the most comprehensive collection devoted to a single artist in Singapore.

FairPrice Supermarkets, Singapore新加坡买老干妈

FairPrice(职总平价超市)是新加坡最大的超市连锁店,全岛有超过100间,价格也是相对比较便宜的,部分门店24小时营业。超市内商品从世界各地进口,从中国的老干妈辣酱到日本的昂贵水果,从中国的白酒到澳大利亚的红酒,从菲律宾芒果干到东南亚泡面都可以买到。

标价有时不靠谱。我有次买牙膏被骗了。标价1.2新元80克,结账说2.35新元,跟我去货架对质,店员说跟旁边40克小包装放反了,说40克的就是1.2新元,我就换了一支40克的,结账时没仔细看,回家才发现收了我1.7新元,被骗了。新加坡人不会因为标错价就便宜卖给顾客的,反而是会用欺骗的方式高价卖给顾客,防不胜防。

Tim Ho Wan Restaurants, Singapore

Tim Ho Wan is a Chinese dimsum restaurant chain that originated in Hong Kong.

In 2009, Mak Kwai-pui, formerly a chef of three-Michelin-starred restaurant Lung King Heen, opened a 20-seater dim sum restaurant in Mongkok. Tim Ho Wan would eventually earn a Michelin star of its own in the 2010 Hong Kong and Macau Guide, a distinction which some have stated was a move in response to the criticism that the Michelin Guide was “elitist” and “out of touch with local tastes.” In 2015, its Sham Shui Po, North Point and Tai Kok Tsui branches had all received one Michelin star. Since then, the restaurant has been dubbed as “the world’s cheapest Michelin-star restaurant.”

Tim Ho Wan began expanding overseas in 2013, with the opening of its first international location in Singapore’s Plaza Singapura. It also expanded to the Philippines, Australia, Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia.
