Sitting in between the narrow shelf ways of Kino at Takashimaya in Singapore, has been a personal favourite over the years, and I am back here after almost a decade. It is a near spiritual experience to breathe in the breathe of physical books in the era of Amazon, where people hardly read.

The Singapore section is a delight as a window into work on the global city.

As one of the few writers who have written on Singapore in the Indian Media, the coverage of the global city among South Asian Academia is rather limited. There are plenty of thesis on India written at NUS/NTU each year, however vice versa cannot be said.

Tanglin Cookhouse.

Sunday Brunch #3 and the last one on this trip to Singapore.

The English Breakfast was great, where colonial fare is the theme.
