Guthrie House — Local services in Singapore

I had the most unpleasant, inhumane experience with the Senior Property Manager, Charles Quek today. One week ago, on 30 Jan at 7.55pm, I tripped and had a bad fall outside Cold Storage due to uneven tiles on the driveway while walking home after making my purchase. I fell forward and all my grocery spilled on the pavement. A young gentleman passed by and all he could manage was asked "Are you Ok?" and walked away. My left knee was bleeding and hurting and my left elbow was also bleeding when I used my left elbow to break the fall. I trudged home 400 km away grittting my teeth till I reached home. I iced down the brusied knee. It was so painful I could barely walk. I rested and applied whatever left over antiseptic cream I could find in my home first aid box while jugggling with caring for my husband. Today, I went to Cold Storage around 8.45am to report the incident to the security guard at the counter. I brought him outside to show him where the uneven tiles were and told him to do something before someone else trip and fall, maybe a worse fall than mine. He took down my contact number and said that he will inform Charles to call me by today. Charles called me at 11am and apologised for the incident. He wanted to end the call until I said that the management Guthrie House should be responsible for my fall. He then asked me to see the doctor and send the invoice to him. I saw the doctor at Advantage Medical Clinic at 2pm and whatsapp and emailed the invoice to Charles. As there were no reponse from him, I went to his office to give him the invoice. I asked him how is he going to pay me. All he said was asked me to wait outside while he took the invoice and went inside his office. He paid me $84.20 in cash. I showed him my bruised knee and he dared said that it was a small fall. On my way home, I saw that the management still did nothing to the uneven tiles. Such narcisstic people reflects the lousy management of this building. Only know how to add...

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Guthrie House in Singapore, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! Nestled in the heart of Bukit Timah, this charming building offers a perfect blend of modern amenities and a cozy atmosphere.

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by friendly staff who were eager to assist. The interior is tastefully decorated, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. The spacious layout makes it a great place for both work and relaxation.

One of the highlights of my visit was the variety of dining options available. The café on the ground floor serves delicious coffee and pastries, making it an ideal spot for a quick bite or a leisurely brunch. I highly recommend trying their signature avocado toast – it was absolutely divine!

For those looking to shop, Guthrie House has a selection of boutique stores that cater to different tastes. I found some unique gifts that I couldn’t resist taking home. The overall shopping experience was enjoyable, without feeling overwhelming like larger malls can sometimes be.

Additionally, the location is fantastic. It’s easily accessible and surrounded by lush greenery, providing a peaceful escape from the bustling city life. There’s also ample parking space, which is a huge plus in Singapore!

Overall, Guthrie House is a delightful destination that offers a little something for everyone. Whether you’re looking to dine, shop, or simply unwind, this place is worth a visit. I will definitely be returning soon and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a charming spot...

Simply bread

I love Guthrie house - It has an old charm and I recall my Jc days that I would come to the now defunct Venezia gelato for their lunch sets and gelato - they are sadly no longer here .

Simply bread is a nice find . No frills bread lovers paradise . Breads are inexpensive and all freshly made.

How about some incredibly aromatic hot cross buns made with black currents and a rich medley of nutmeg , cinnamon spices?

Ask for your breads to be toasted - for that soft crisp outside .

Nothing beats a good bread for brunch.

Also available are there ala minute sandwiches , freshly assembled on the spot :)

The BLT and the ham and cheese and cinnamon French toasts...
