Fly Away: Let's tuck in

I took the girls to eat at tuckshop yesterday.

Tuckshop? Sounds familiar and ancient?

Yeah, that's the old-school name for the area where primary school kids of the 90s consume their food. Nowadays, we always just refer to as canteen this, canteen that.

Anyway, I didn't really took the girls to a school's tuckshop to eat. "Tuckshop" is in fact the name of a small, cosy cafe located at Tanjong Pagar, just beside Play club.

So there we were again, exploring another new makan place, but that's not it. The main purpose of the trip there is to do a mini birthday celebration for my fellow 13 Clan member, Shan.

If you like to know, Tuckshop is actually quite a nice place with not-too-bad food at affordable prices, and with live music for accompany, which takes place on certain nights. They have two opening hours; one's in the day (from 11.30am to 2.30pm) and the other in the evening (from 5.30pm till late). So if you are hungry from clubbing next door, you can always just pop over.

You can find out more from their website at http://www.tuckshop.com.sg/

And so far, of all places that I've tried, I think their fish & chips tastes the best.

Basically I was at Tanjong Pagar for the whole of yesterday. That's because after Shan's celebration in the day, I had to attend another friend's birthday function in the night, happening within the same area just one road across Tuckshop. This time round for steamboat dinner. Argh full!
