Exploring Katong: From Iconic Laksa to Vintage Finds (BONUS! POP Bakery)

Date of Visit: 19 September 2026 A weekend date with your partner doesn’t always require an expensive meals, an overpriced plane ticket or an elaborate itinerary. Sometimes, the best trips are right in our own backyard that blends in rich local flavors, a walk down memory lane, and a relaxed afternoon exploring historic neighborhoods. If you're looking for a perfect day trip in Singapore, here is how we spent a meaningful weekend re-exploring the charm, nostalgia, and hidden gems of Katong and Marine Parade. My hubby will be the storyteller for the day. Nostalgic Detour: Roxy Square Address: 50 East Coast Rd Singapore 428769 Nearest MRT: Marine Parade (TEL) We kicked off our day with Roxy Square . Built on the historic site of the old Roxy Theatre, this spot retains a quiet retro charm. Wandering through its classic tailor shops, traditional beauty salons, and quiet music nooks felt like stepping into another era; a true hidden gem for anyone who appreciates the quieter side of her...

[RECIPE] Egg Mayo Sandwich


I love Egg Mayo Sandwich. The last time I made was way before I got married. You know, you hang around with colleagues who are mummies, you get lots of tips on cooking, group buy lobangs and so on. That's how I know how to make Egg Mayo. Grateful for that bunch of ladies.

Used to buy from outside too when on the go but find it quite expensive for 2 slices of stuffed bread cut into half, to make it look huge or something. This is how they earn. What to do, right? So now I decided to make them again because I'm bored with hashbrown sandwich.

Ingredients:
- 3 hardboiled eggs, dice or mash
- 1-2 tbsp of Mayonnaise
- Dash of salt and pepper
- Lettuce and/or cucumber for a crunch

Method:
1) In a pot of boiling water, put in the eggs and cooked for 15 mins.
2) Once done, go through cold water before peeling the shells away.
3) On the cutting board, halve the eggs and dice the white and yolk.
4) Put the diced eggs in a box and add in mayonnaise to mix well.
5) So long as the mayonnaise is enough to cover the eggs, you don't need to add more.
6) Add salt (sparingly) and pepper to taste.
7) Serve with lettuce and cucumber after spreading the Egg Mayo on bread.
8) Chill the remaining for next day consumption.

The serving should last about 3-4 breakfasts.
But that is when you use 1 layer (2 slices of bread) each breakfast.

Bon Appetit.
