August has always been a time of #SingaporePride and joyful celebrations for all Singaporeans. This year is no different, as our nation rejoices and celebrates Singapore’s 55th birthday! While the perennial favourite — the National Day Parade (NDP) — will be scaled down amidst Covid-19 pandemic precautions, we can still celebrate in the way we know best: good food and dining promotions.
