  • StartUp: The Podcast in Stuff Startup Founders Need

    This is the first podcast series that I have listened to in its entirety. Loved the candour expressed throughout each episode alongside the emotional roller-coaster that truly reflects life in the start-up world. I'd recommend the first series of this podcast to anyone thinking about starting up a business of really any nature.

  • Pitch Anything by Oren Klaff in Stuff Startup Founders Need

    I have a background in asset management sales and have always been a little skeptical of "evangelists" focused on the subject of selling/closing. I did, however, enjoy watching the interview in the link provided in the description above - some interesting/useful concepts in creating the perceived scarcity of what you are looking to sell.

  • The Assembly Ground in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I liked the interior of this cafe and hipster theme despite its slightly out-of-place location on the ground floor of a modern shopping mall. I ordered their Eggs Benji ($16) and enjoyed the well poached eggs and accompanying golden yoke. The ham was of decent quality and placed rather artistically both underneath and on top of the poached eggs. Their hollandaise sauce had a good distinctive flavour and the honey mustard dressed side salad rounded off an enjoyable brunch.

  • The Clueless Goat in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I really enjoyed the handmade feel to this cafe which was exemplified when the Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon arrived on their own homemade ceramic plate. The eggs were of average quality but were well poached. The multi-grain toast made for a refreshing change from a more traditional english muffin or brioche base. The smoked salmon came as a healthy serving and was of good quality. The hollandaise sauce had a good consistency and rich flavour. I also enjoyed the additional side salad.

  • The Book Cafe in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I'm a big fan of cafes which double up as great venues to read your book or newspaper so I'd been looking forward to visiting this venue for a while. I went for their Eggs Benedict ($15.95) and enjoyed the good quality eggs that were well poached. While not listed on the menu, the fresh spinach leaf base came as a good addition alongside the decent quality honey baked ham and subtle but tasty hollandaise sauce. The rosti potato with a dollop of sour cream rounded off a very enjoyable brunch.

  • Jones the Grocer (Mandarin Gallery) in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I chose the Benedict Breakfast ($22) and enjoyed its presentation. The english muffin was thin and well toasted. The eggs were well poached and of good quality. I thought the ham was delicious and I enjoyed its combination with the serving of spinach. Unfortunately, I found the hollandaise sauce to be a little buttery and lacking any distinctive flavour which was a real shame. The side salad was fresh but could have done with some dressing.

  • Fiverr in How to find Programmers in Singapore

    My PHP website had a bug that wasn't letting users log in for some reason and my freelancer was on holiday, so I tried out Fiverr. I went for the cheapest option - a random guy for $5 who had decent but not great reviews - and he got the job done, though took 1.5 days to respond. Look into the reviews next time so you know what you're getting.

  • The List in How to find Programmers in Singapore

    A good friend of mine put me in touch with The List shortly after I joined the startup scene in Singapore. I've been to a couple of their events which provide an excellent means for networking. Like all such events, it can be tough to find exactly what you're looking for on the technical side of things but well worth checking out.

  • Glints in How to find Interns in Singapore

    Dedicated to internships and graduate jobs in Singapore. I created my internship job posting for free on their platform and received the detailed profile of five applicants a week later. We liked the look of three of the candidates and used our 20% special offer to arrange the interview stage with each. Following this quick and easy process we were really happy with the intern we took on board.

    Great website to be inspired by creative and talented people in Singapore. I posted an internship listing on their jobs board and was pleased with the response albeit not quite as filtered as more dedicated sites to my specific needs.

  • Jewel Cafe and Bar in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I'd been meaning to drop by this cafe for a little while since it is located not too far from where I live. I went for their Eggs Benedict ($15) which certainly made for a hearty brunch. The eggs were of good quality and were well poached. I felt the addition of back bacon alongside the more traditional ham was perhaps just a little too much meat for a dish of this nature. The hollandaise sauce was plentiful in portion but lacked distinctive flavour.

  • Royz et Vous Specialty Coffee in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    Always keen to find good brunch options in the CBD, I was excited to stumble upon this cafe which has recently relocated from the Kampong Glam area. I went for their Eggs Royale and found the presentation of the dish very easy on the eye. I enjoyed the fresh brioche base and well poached eggs of good quality. There was a hearty serving of smoked salmon but unfortunately the hollandaise sauce was a little lacking in distinctive flavour. I really enjoyed their potato salad on the side.

  • Suprette in The Ultimate Guide to Burgers in Singapore

    I dropped back into Suprette last Friday night and really enjoyed the addition of avocado to their signature Suprette Burger. It came in a very healthy portion and added to an already excellent experience.

  • The Provision Shop in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    While it took me a little bit of time to locate The Provision Shop, it was well worth the effort. I went for their Almost a Florentine ($12) and really enjoyed the presentation and purposeful simplicity (paper plate, wooden knife and fork). The eggs were a little under poached for my liking but of good quality and the hollandaise sauce was excellent. The icing on the cake for me was the mixture of organic vegetables which greatly enhanced this novel take on Eggs Florentine.

  • Cafe Gavroche in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I am a big fan of this venue and had been meaning to drop by at the weekend for a while to sample their brunch menu. I went for their Oeufs Benedict ($22) and really enjoyed their traditional take on this dish. The hollandaise sauce was rich, creamy and delicious combining well with the crispy bacon. The eggs were of good quality but just a little over poached for my liking. I really enjoyed the surprising addition of fried potatoes and sausages that accompanied the dish.
