Wow!
Thanks for the insight on the Indie coffee scene; wasn't aware of CSH's role in popularizing it. Guess I was also too young back then to appreciate coffee! So you're pretty close to the CSH owners?
Cool, which cafe is it? Would love to give your beans a shot; too many players now in the market and it's getting increasingly hard to find a really good supply without falling back to the commercial brands.. Personally I prefer some robusta in the beans for more body but the main focus these days seem to be 100% arabica..
I also remember trying a cafe called La Ristretto at Novena Medical Centre and they served great coffee, problem is they are quite out of the way and on weekends they're already packing up by the time I get out of bed!
Cheers

in the mood for Black and Whites
all captured amatuerishly by me and my OPPO phone from two generations removed. All my own rides, featuring some Singapore cityscape at night, often the wees hours of the morning. My F430 outside a former hardware store that got converted into one of the ...
And I thought that I'm nuts about cars...
Nice photos. Even I visit Singapore often, all those areas are unknown to me. Perhaps I spend too big part of my leisure time in the basement of Hyatt in Orchard. Best, Kari
Thanks mate. Actually the church is just down the road from Hyatt
But it certainly cannot agree with the activities that lingers at Hyatt basement!! 😄😛 Best, Horo
I'm nearly always travelling with my family,
also so this month. So just a beer in a nice place and perhaps some window shopping. Best, Kari
Do you know...
I'm in SG on average once every month. Always for a short trip, rarely with any time for things like horological excursions. I have had coffee at the Hyatt. I have had Sunday brunch at the Hyatt. I have had drinks at the Hyatt - upstairs on the first floo...
gimme a buzz the next time you are here.
will endeavour to get you better caffeine and horological offerings. best, Horo
Thanks!
Arriving tomorrow for two short days - well, Thursday in JB, actually. But next time...yes, hopefully next time I will get an evening off! Will be in touch... Best E.
buzz me the next time you are in town!
you bring me to Hyatt basement, and I will bring you to the church thereafter!!! - best, Horo
Sounds like a great plan!
Take your 430 with you. I will arrive Singapore on 22nd August with my wife and 3-years old daughter. Two kids, 21 & 18 just spent a month in Singapore practicing in the local hospital. We will fly back home on 27th midnight. Best, Kari
they are different, I will do a summary in another post.
but I say the GTR gives the most overall satisfaction. true exotic car slayer and fantastic point and shoot car. with a dose of practicality - big boot and seats 4. best, Horo
The practical choice!
The GTR is arguably your fastest car, takes the most number of passengers, packs the most luggage and probably has one of the lowest maintenance costs
Great shots!
Especially love the Murcielago; last of the clean looking Lambos IMO. Hard pressed to tell they're not taken with a DSLR! I do have to say CSH's coffee are a tad overrated though Cheers Masayuki
CSH started in late 00s, and are the early Indie coffee scene, very much aligned to my path to Indie watch collecting
i remember the early days when they were operating out of the mom's shop backyard and they didnt have a retail license, which is why they didnt charge for their coffee, which was "sold" as sample and you leave a gratuity or tip. and from then on, the scen...

Super shots...
This is why I love this forum... watch porn, car porn, who needs real porn?!? Great sets of wheels!
thank you.....Purists usually have many hobbies....
....many complimentary to horology, and same time competitive for the same resources required to acquire them!! best, Horo
wow
very impressive collection of cars, esp in sg. you are def a VVIP for the tax authorities there
In Singapore, we are a meritocracy....
There are no VIPs!!! All citizens are equal in the eyes of the law and public, and consequently the tax authorities.😄 Best, Horo
i like to try different setups
from FWD to RWD to AWD. 4-6-8-10-12 cylinders. Straight, Boxer, Vs. Rear/Mid/Front engine...........classic to modern cars, european to american to british to japanese makes...i wanna try them all, with no prejudices. best, Horo
Really nice shots,
I especially like the Mustang and F430 pics, the architectural coupling works particularly well in those . Never been to Singapore myself so love to see images like yours. Cheers, Filip
come by, Singapore is a country between two world....of modernity and tradition
despite the relatively short history, its has got all sorts of ingredients to make one visit's interesting. plus watches a big thing!! best, Horo
I miss living in Singapore...
I always look forward to going back though! Very nice cars to go with the watches (or maybe the other way round?)
were you based here?
cars and watches are both complimentary and competitive....a nice car and watch combo is what most guys want, at the same time, to afford both may means sacrificing one for the other, especially here in Singapore where a Toyota Corolla cost USD80k. cheers...
Hi Horo,
Yes used to live/work there and still have my condo waiting for me NYC is great but Singapore was much closer to home (Korea) for us which made seeing family much easier. I was lucky to make some very close friends there so try and go back at least once a...
Jeez, I couldn't afford the parking of four cars...
Singapore is an expensive place for cars; cars themselves, parking, and number plates are costly and cumbersome. You must be a car nut! Here in San Francisco, to park four cars, you'd probably be on a waiting list in a garage for a few years to get that m...
