Family Pizza Place

Craving for an absolutely yummy wood-fired, thin-crust pizza? Try this pizzeria at the Greenwood neighborhood (off Dunearn Rd.) Our family loves going to this italian place, where even the simplest pizza satisfies. They also have pasta dishes and good desserts. The kids love doodling with the crayons on the tables while waiting. Though the location is somewhat inconvenient, and parking is limited (plenty of eateries nearby), it's worth going to. Reservations are recommended, otherwise plan to eat at odd times. It's open everyday from 12 noon to 12 midnight anyway.

Italian Pastries...mamma mia!

Traditional pastries, cakes and tarts made by an Italian pastry chef. Met the chef personally and tried a sample--loved it and bought on the spot. Next person tries another, does the same. Tastes so authentic, I grew up with 3 Italian bakeries on one block.

Don't Get Lost in SG--Use gothere.sg

Going somewhere? Try gothere.sg -- an innovative online map developed for Singapore.  Get directions going from one place to another via car, bus, mrt, taxi or a combination of public transportation. It also gives the approximate distance, time & fare, together with ERPs and peak hour surcharges. What's more, it also has a street view to let you glimpse exactly what to see and expect! The interface is slick and very user-friendly. Go and try lah, can?
