Cheap upholstered dining chairs

CAMPING chairs are not only useful for camping, but it's a great choice for the park, picnics, outdoor events and even the garden if you don’t want to leave patio furniture out all year round.

Division Supper Club, started with business partner Aidan Wee, popped up in restaurants all over Singapore, serving Helou’s unique East-West cuisine, which draws as much upon his own mixed heritage as it does his training in Europe and Japan. Helou and Wee have plans to open their first restaurant this year. The latest post on the Division Supper Club Instagram page teases us with a set of keys. Turns out, the pair have taken over a space on Rangoon Road, formerly the home of dessert … [Read more...] about Creative Capital: The multi-racial Singapore chef taking the private dining world by storm

To ensure that your home isn’t inadvertently rolling out the welcome mat for COVID-19, you can't just simply clean. You'll have to disinfect. That's because wiping the shelves and the TV console with a cloth dampened with just water isn't enough to kill the coronavirus. In fact, it can survive “on average about three days in our local climate” on glass, metal and ceramic surfaces, said Dr Jyoti Somani, a senior consultant with the Division of Infectious Diseases at National University Hospital.
