​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. Tucked next to HomeTeamNS Khatib and surrounded by the ongoing construction of upcoming BTOs, the site carries a sense that it may not be their permanent home for long.

Media Invite | Japan Food Town - Spring Lunch Fair

From now till 21st May, visit the restaurants at Japan Food Town located at Level 4 of Wisma Atria for their Spring Lunch Fair. Be amazed by what each restaurant has to offer for this Spring Lunch Fair Menu. Don't miss it!

Back to Yomoda Soba again for a bowl of Standard Mixed Soba that costed $11.80++. Served with a hot bowl of soup, the ingredients topped on the warm soba were nicely presented in four (4) sections: cucumbers, beansprouts, crumbs and seaweed flakes. Looks like it is telling us the start of a new cycle of 4 seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Then with a small serving of chilli in the middle section and the mixing sauce underneath the soba, mixed them well to ensure the sauce blended with the soba and its ingredients.

With mouthful, you get that crunch from the cucumbers and beansprouts. If you love beansprouts, they provided a small container of beansprouts for you to add on. The taste was flavourful and spicy but not overwhelming which suited my palate. I enjoyed it even more because it was served with warm soba. If you love warm soba like me, you might love this.
