Kinda Naughty.. but Nice! A homegrown drinking game
Kinda Naughty.. but Nice! said:
KNN! Singapore's very own local drinking game! Proudly created and manufactured in Singapore for Singaporeans, KNN is your ideal ice-breaker! It is a wonderfully compact, fast-paced, no-holds barred game that is amazingly easy to play and guaranteed to be engaging for all!
Recommended by indirestraits: "KNN is the brainchild of 4 student entrepreneurs and is as far as we know the only local drinking game on the market. It is currently in pre-launch stages and we hope to harness the power of the blogsphere and internet to create interest in our game before we launch it officially with conventional media coverage. Please support us! (Besides, the game is honestly very fun!!!)"

The Varieties of Milo
Cookiemonster said:
MILO lovers would have you know that there are TWO different types of powder available in the market out there, at least true in this part of the world, Asia. Depending on your luck & how the business managers do it, you can get MILO powder in Singapore coming from either Malaysia and/or Australia.Unless I'm very much wrong, the one coming from our neighbouring Malaysia, is sweeter; to accomodate our Asian tastebuds for sweet stuff. While the one coming from Down Under Australia, it is creamier (probably from all the milk supply from the moo-moo cows).
Recommended by ssf: "Actually, I prefer the Aussie version - but it's funny in any case how Singaporeans get so passionate about a drink from a Swiss conglomerate..."

Food: Morning wood!
Kurios1978 said:
There's this vendor that's always parked on the side of the streets. He's got blocks of wood, all laid out on the side. Apparently he sells Chilk (칡) wood tea??!!Here's the catch ~ The guy only only sells this in the morning. Talk about morning wood!

Charlie's At Changi
Tym said:
Some friends that we've introduced to Charlie's have been like, "So you drive all the way out here --- for expensive beers --- and mediocre Western food? What's the point?" People, that is the point. Charlie's has no pretensions about it. They sell beer, loads and loads of varieties of it, and they sell mediocre-to-average Western food. They're not trying to wow you with fancy tablecloths or happy hour prices or specialty dishes (unless the range of beers counts as a specialty).
Recommended by cowboycaleb: "Have you been to the oh-so-out-of-the-way Charlie's? It's one of Singapore's worst best kept secrets. One which many have heard about but few have actually visited."

Drink Driving
SINGAPORE : BreadTalk’s founder and managing director, George Quek, has been charged with drink-driving.The 48-year-old also faces another charge of driving without due care or reasonable consideration.The Subordinate Courts heard that in the early hours of 8 October 2004, Mr Quek had apparently lost control of his Porsche, and crashed into a police car at a road block along Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1.
He is believed to have been drunk at that time.
Idledays said "Hmm… he was obviously drunk! I mean it couldn’t have been something in the bread now, could it? Do they have a new Tia Maria bun I’m not aware of?"
