Time flies and we are into our third series of our Monthly Grub Recommend. For February's recommendation, we have 7 new establishments, 2 new menu and 1 relocation. I am rather surprise with the number of new cafe, restaurants that have opened. I thought everyone is saying the economy is not good. I even remembered reading a report saying we are in technical recession. It really make me wonders why there are still new cafes and restaurants opening in Singapore.
