Nestled between Beach Road and North Bridge Road is Purvis Street which is abuzz with an array of restaurants. The sight of conserved shophouses clustered near to towering modern skyscrapers, notably The South Beach, caught our attention.

East Coast Road: 227 Katong Durian

It’s the peak season for durian again. If you are not aware, the typical season for durian feasting occurs between June to August. The supply of durians this year seem to be better than last year.
