Turf City

We were on our way to IMM on a Saturday afternoon when we heard on the radio about some free tyre check event at Turf City. I personally never been there before. Annie did. She went there with Joycelyn to catch Energy. She insist she was dragged there by her. Yah right.. :p



The first feel one has is you seemed to be entering Malaysia. The place is pretty run-down and you can't see any reminiscence of Singapore (not a single building in line of sight)



The place is divided into two portion mainly. One side is full of auto shops. There is even one that showcase only heritage cars.

The other side is our usual shopping centre. A Giant supermarket, some retail clothing stalls, a seafood market and a pretty cheap 2nd hand book store. Oh, and there is an institute that trains people who wants to work in casino.


Doesn't this look soooo JB..



What I really like about this place is how close to nature it is. It's a place you seldom could find in land-scare Singapore. It reminds me of Seletar Camp where I did my 2 years of NS.



As we were roaming around, hordes of rugby players walked towards the centre. Apparently there is a large field around the area that is used by them for training. There's even a football field and a tennis court.

For those who haven't been to this place, give it a try. The natural surroundings and the laid back atmosphere is truly unique.

And the wanton mee is terrific.
