    Dining in Singapore is a serious pursuit. City Nomads covers the restaurants, cafes, bars, and new openings that define the city’s food culture, not just what’s new, but what’s worth going back to. Honest, well-travelled, and always hungry.

    Singapore and Asia’s cultural life moves fast. Between gallery openings, sold-out concerts, and theatre runs that vanish before you’ve heard about them, knowing where to look matters. City Nomads covers the art exhibitions, cinema releases, live music, and theatre that shape how this city thinks, feels, and gathers.

Gary is one of those proverbial jack of all trades... you know the rest. When not writing about lifestyle and culture, he dabbles in photography, graphic design, plays four instruments and is a professional wearer of bowties. His greatest weakness: spending more money on clothes than he probably should. Find him across the social world as @grimlay
