What it is
A small, independent publication edited by Jamie, who lives in Singapore. It isn’t a newsroom with a staff of reviewers: listings and guides are researched and drafted with help from research and writing tools, then edited by Jamie, and every place earns its spot because it’s worth your time — not because anyone paid.
Where Jamie has actually been, the page says “Visited by the editor” with the month. Everything else is researched, not visited.
How places are checked
Practical details — address, opening hours, prices, dates and links — are checked against the sources linked on each page, starting with the venue’s or organiser’s own website. Where a page says “Details checked” with a date, that is when that check happened. It doesn’t mean we visited: we don’t claim to have eaten somewhere or seen a show unless we have.
A place only appears once it has a reliable source, a confirmed location, the dates or opening hours that matter, and an image we have the right to show. Anything we’re unsure about is held back until it’s confirmed. Things change, so check before you go — and tell us about a correction if you spot one.
Photos and illustrations
Photos are our own, supplied or cleared with permission, or openly licensed. Openly licensed photos carry a small ⓘ with the photographer’s credit and the licence. Some pages use illustrations rather than photographs; those are labelled “Illustration” on the image.
Independence
Recommendations aren’t for sale. If that ever changes for a feature, it will be labelled clearly as a partnership.
Booking links
Some pages have “Book on …” buttons for partners such as Klook. If you book through one, we may earn a small commission, at no extra cost to you. It helps pay for the site, and it never decides what we recommend: places are chosen first, and a partner link is added only where that partner already sells the same thing.
