When I was younger I loved Krispy Kreme in the 'states, perhaps due to the standalone shops with the conveyer belt which you could track your donut being made from a ball of dough to getting glazed and then eating that exact one hot off the press. Now that it is available in Singapore, it is still good but isn't the dream dessert it once was. I'll still have a couple donuts without hesitation, but probably won't have 6 at a time anymore :)

Skipped the auctions as you did and just showed up for the food - highly recommend Sushi Dai if you get the chance in the future!

The wagyu shabu shabu here was a crazy good quality, especially given the extremely reasonable price of $228 HKD for the Japanese Supreme Wagyu set. Add on the $20 HKD free flow of beer & cider, and you're in for an amazing meal.
I'd suggest trying both Austrlian and Japanese Wagyu early on to see which you prefer - the marbling on the Japanese meat may be a bit rich for some.

Who doesn't love Tsui Wah? My usual is the crispy condensed milk buns, Malaysian beef brisket curry, and a champagne milk tea. A+ food and value!

Steak sandwich at $16 was much better than I expected. This is some quality beef with seriously awesome texture, not the sliced ham or roast beef crap you get from the likes of Subway. The bread was nice and crispy too.

I thought this was an excellent movie. Really enjoyed all the physics theory (nerd alert!) though that definitely isn't a prerequisite to enjoying the film. Nice drama, raises good questions, and a great deal of suspense - overall a great movie

I love these little biscuits and so does pretty much everyone else. The light texture goes well with the subtle chocolate taste.

Hands down, these are some of my favorite chocolates. The soft, melt in your mouth texture coupled with being refrigerated cold is an awesome combination on the taste buds. I can easily finish an entire box on my own in one go :P

Gyu Jin strikes a fantastic balance of quality meat with a very good price. Opting for the $250 HKD-ish buffet, you'll get great cuts of beef and pork without breaking the bank. Add in free flow of drinks and Haagen Daz ice cream, and it is a truly amazing value.

Great 3-cup chicken! I haven't had it in a while, but I remember it being one dish that I tried to get back in Singapore and couldn't get anything close. Will definitely make an effort to go back next visit.

Awesome soft-shell crab. Large portions and good quality - you can taste a healthy dose of crab meat under the texture of the fried shell.

Seriously the best Portuguese egg tarts I've had. No trip to Hong Kong is complete without them, and friends from HK know this is the only thing I'll ask for when they visit me in SG.

If I could have one app on my phone when I am on holiday, this would be it. The ability to head into a general area and then use the GPS features to find other nearby attractions, restaurants, etc and then point me there with a simple arrow is seriously amazing - especially without needing to get a SIM card for data.
This app has literally changed the way I travel - I now spend a lot more time doing and enjoying instead of planning or missing out.

Not only do I use XE Currency nonstop when I travel, I also use it all the time at home when checking forex rates or making overseas purchases. It is incredibly convenient after you configure the few currencies you're interested in, and has prevented all those costly miscalculations I used to make when manually converting foreign currencies.

While I am already quite meticulous about managing my trips in Excel spreadsheets, calendars, and DropBox folders, WorldMate is a must-have tool to always know when/where my next flight is and what hotel we to go to. The simplicity of opening the app and seeing everything neatly organized at your fingertips - all without doing anything other than forwarding confirmation emails - is magical.

The daily 4-hour wine buffet (5pm - 9pm) is great value for money. Not sure about the red wine, white wine, or beer, but the moscato and prosecco are great picks.

I was really happy to find this show compared to all the random fantasy / thriller / action / mystery shows on the market now. Reminds me of life in the US and how fun it can be, and also brings the focus back to family and happy endings without needing crazy amounts of action / sex / profanity to get there. Moreso than most others, I feel happy when I watch Modern Family.

LOVE South Park. When I was younger and this just came out, it was adult potty humor and nothing more (IMHO). Since then it has evolved into giving meaningful insights into current affairs globally while still being entertaining and funny as hell. One of the very few shows I still actually watch.
Highly recommend the 'Freemium Isn't Free' show. Can watch all the full episodes for free at http://southpark.cc.com/ that is, unless you live in blocked countries like Singapore =\

OMG YES! Totally recommend this to everyone who visits SF / Berkeley. Wish they had pizza like this in Singapore

Used in conjunction with prepaid cards, this is my most consistent spending every month. While not the most amazing card on its own due to being limited to $2k and online purchases - the flexibility it offers via prepaid top ups is truly liberating.
When people don't want to bother with having a ton of cards and remembering how/when to use each, I always recommend this one (plus a prepaid) as the simplest solution while still getting 4 miles / S$.
