​A Quiet Visit to the Live Turtle Museum: Finding Comfort in Grief

Live Turtle Museum at 11 Chencharu Close The Gentle Motivation Behind the Visit The Live Turtle Museum reopened at its new location on August 23, 2026. By a heartbreaking coincidence, that very same week, I lost my beloved baby of 26 years . Just a week later, while still deep in grief, I decided to make the trip. Being just a short bus ride from my house in Yishun, it felt close enough to reach out and a touch of familiar comfort. But stepping inside brought a flood of conflicting emotions. I found myself looking at all these gentle creatures living, breathing, and thriving, while my own one and only was gone forever. It sparked a strange, heavy mix of feelings that I hope people can pardon, as grief naturally makes the heart process things in complex ways.

Food Review | Ipoh Lou Yau Bean Sprouts Chicken

To max out our calories, we went for a random dinner at IMM while waiting for our queue to buy his Note 4. Been passing by this food outlet every time when we pop by IMM. So pop in since not crowded. Known for their kampong chicken. Needn't to say much what they are selling.

My husband had that chicken rice set that comes with a soup, beansprouts and a plate of kampong chicken. This set is quite decent. He made a comment that the rice we cooked at home is tastier than theirs. Oops...

Curry Yong Tau Foo Hor Fun

Pork Ball Soup 
While having my curry hor fun, I had their one and only fishball inside. It tastes somehow fresh and decent. And this pork ball is kind of rubbery though tasty soup. Thus will prefer to have their fishball soup instead.

Handmade Minced Meat Beancurd Skin Pancake
I would recommend this dish as a side because it is crispy on the outside and tasty on the inside, which means the fillings are well-marinated. A little juicy too.

Along with Calamansi Juice and Warm Barley water to quench our thirst.

They are at: 2 Jurong East Street 21, #01-K09 IMM S(609601) Nearest MRT: Jurong East
