Bro, that was like many moons ago, possibly 40 years back. Anyway, Lau's Arcadia is super haunted. I heard a lady committed suicide there after being jilted by the son of the building owner. So she cursed the place and ever since, no business stayed long there. Just saying...
Maybe 18 years back, I also played the
老虎机. Few stalls away from CMC is the Katong Laksa, one at Ceylon Rd, but don't know which is the original.
Further down the road, after Still Rd is the
Beach Rd Prawn Mee.
Never heard of such thing when I was in
St. Pat.
But I knew that was a muslim cemetery along Siglap Rd.
Who was your principal in St Pat then , Bro Joe or Bro Justinian ?
Commonly known to be a gangster hide out. Alot of paikias go there and gangster wannabes too
The article mentions fastest piston engine aircraft in the world. The Hornet was fast, but not the fastest. Hence, its inaccurate.
Sin Po Po Bar - the hand job specialists!
The gunman was caught in 2018 in Penang and deported back to Singapore. Old uncle died inside prison
KNN seems rike your nephew is older than my uncle KNN
This young octogenarian uncle is very happy to see this thread revitalised after 2012!
Been with SammyLeong café for at least two decades and have stopped being active due to lack of good chaps whose knowledge and comments that I valued. I see a few reappearing here now to my happiness.
A couple of tit-bits to start off if there are young guys interested:
1 The laksa stall opposite former Lau Arcadia near the church is a branch of 328 (main in CeylonRoad). This is a third copy of original Katong Laksa which was started at the opposite coffee in Ceylon Road. The original was started by "old man Jangut" who plied around the Joo Chiat/Katong areas in the early fifties! Two heavy pots of stuff supported by bamboo hanging from his shoulders. More on the development of "katong laksa" if interested. Don't forget Roxy laksa too.
2 The cafe in Jackie's Bowl Siglap is now still the "Different Taste" restaurant in Frankel Avenue with the original owners active!
Cheers!
