Pssst… I got lucky and ate at a fancy place without the crazy prices. Defies the long boring name. It’s one of those places you won’t get nonsense people around to ruin the atmosphere, yet not stiff enough to have to behave awkwardly. In true wastedfashion form, here are some pictures (forget about convoluted & impressive reviews).

I produced an indie music festival in Singapore for 7years before I moved to the US to be with my indie game dev husband Tom who made Axiom Verge and Axiom Verge 2. We live in Los Angeles, California with our son Alastair (named for Alastair Reynolds) and our dog Goliath (named for his size).

One thought on “The University Club Lounge & Dining Room

  1. Roast chicken is my favourite thing to cook! (Because, you just let it roast! :D)

    Wanted to ask you where this fancy place was, actually!
    Who knew it would be in NUS.
    Will have to remember to try it when I am back in Singapore.
