Labrador Park is relatively quiet on a Public Holiday, but not the beach below it. Didn't know that the beach is so crowded now, so much so that the carpark is packed in the evening. Another stretch of the beach, leading to almost the adjacent of the seafront of Keppel Club, is now open to the public. We were there on Deepavali for a walk and also discovered a row of rundown and quaint stalls that sell quite good and reasonably-priced Malay food, near the entrance of the park facing PSA Tower. But alas, the Circle Line MRT station will be built next to it soon, thus probably erasing all the charm and turning it into another sanitised and supposedly visitor-friendly park. The Singapore government is world-class is doing that, ie demolishing charming nooks and crannies, and building sanitised and faceless structure in its place.
