Essentials

BUS 126 TO ZHONG SHAN MALL (BIG SHOPPING MALL) My home is 4 bus stops away from Zhong Shan Mall with beers, eateries and a very large supermarket. You can then buy groceries and then take bus 21 or 126 to go back home from Balestier Road or continue to walk and and eat there. You will pass Whampoa Market on the way back. I think it is $1.40 for 3-5 stops at bus. WHAT TO EAT AT ZHONG SHAN MALL Lebanese Pistachio Grill, very good and cheap, authentic Starker Bar – Home made beer and good food Japanese and lots of Restaurants Balestier Road HAS SO MUCH GOOD FOOD!

Getting Around

MRT – BOON KENG MRT This is across the underground walkway outside the 24 hour supermarket at underpass and takes 15mins to walk. It is a little far so please cycle. USE GRAB BIKES TO GET TO MRT/ DOWNLOAD GRAB CYCLE APP I suggest to cycle to MRT or to Whampoa Market or Balestier Road instead of walking. These are the yellow bikes down the block. Just download the app and scan the QR code at back top of bike wheel. GRAB TAXIS/GOJEK Download the app and it is about $8-10 to go to Orchard depending if it is peak hours. I find gojek cheapest COMFORT TAXIS You can book 65521111 with my house phone or flag one down. I can spend 30% more sometimes so best to check all 3 apps.
