Baagus Place is a small casual-dining eatery located just opposite the TGV Cinemas on the 2nd floor of AEON Bukit Indah Shopping Centre. For directions on how to get to AEON Bukit Indah from JB Sentral/CIQ, check out my earlier post: How to get to AEON Bukit Indah by bus? – Johor Bahru Shuttle Bus […]
A&W, you are dearly missed. Please come back to Singapore soon. Since A&W’s exit from Singapore in 2003, I’m sure many Singaporeans like myself who had grown up with one of our favourite childhood fast food chains must be craving for its root beer floats, waffles, coney dogs and curly fries for a long time. Though they […]
My husband and I are movie buffs and we used to spend way too much $$$ watching movies in the cinema every month. And I’m sure we are not the only ones in Singapore who do that. When news broke that Netflix (an internet streaming-video/media provider based in the US) was going to be launched […]
Update: This bus service is no longer in operation. Since I started writing about Johor Bahru shuttle bus guides, I seemed to have transformed into a walking street directory because I’ve been getting emails every other day from people asking for directions to travel around Johor Bahru especially from CIQ/JB Sentral to the shopping malls, […]

A cosy space with just 10 seats, this place is perfect for that leisurely afternoon tea and/or whenever you need […]
The first time I came across the term cashback was when I was in the UK because the husband frequently made use of top UK cashback sites to make his online purchases and literally earn cash back with every transaction. When we returned to Singapore, he was quite gutted that there wasn’t a similar site […]
Earlier this year, I went on a bak kut teh eat-venture and decided that this – Soon Soon Heng Bak Kut Teh @ Johor Bahru – was the best BKT I had. I’ve always preferred the Hokkien style of BKT that is darker in colour with the addition of dark soya sauce and it is […]
Update February 2023: Gim Tim is no longer offering this Teochew Porridge Buffet. Whenever I crave for a porridge meal, I would head to either Quality Hotel Marlow or Orchard Grand Court for their porridge buffet as I like their variety of dishes. When I heard that one of my favourite Chinese restaurants in Ang […]
