I'm starting to see the correlation between these places, as being the premier hang out joint for the young upstarts that are still in school. Probably only in Singapore do you find that students prefer to study in such places rather than in the comfort of their home, school or the public library. Perhaps the proximity to caffine and caffinated drinks allows them to increase the flow of adrenaline to their heart - thereby allowing them to study better.
Went to Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf at Serangoon Gardens last night for a business / social gathering amongst business friends last n ight. And enjoyed a tea-latte there. Didn't realise how weak the tea tasted. Not that I really complained because it was late and a strong tea would probably have kept me awake much longer than I had wanted to.
The later it got, the more crowded the surrounding hang-out/chill-out places got. Wow this suburban area is quite happening for F&B outlets. Haven't been to this area for the past 3 years and my has it changed - for the better in my opinion, as it brings greater diversity to the commercial mix. Bad news though for home owners there that have to bear with the lack of parking space and increased traffic in their formerly quiet neighbourhood.
