Timeline Singapore takes a trip down Katong, a once quiet town that has changed to a bustling food paradise. "The Katong Red House, the Katong Antique House, the descendents of rubber tycoon Tan Cheng Kee, and the Peranakan culture - all these represent the different facets of Katong. From the surface, Katong appears to have retained much of its old-world charm since the days when rich Europeans settled in their bungalows near the sea. Yet, on closer inspection, change is underway. The icon of Katong to many - the Red House, has been demolished. In this episode, Timeline Singapore captures the last remaining days of this famous bakery. As well as speak to the people, young and old, who have called Katong home through the generations"--Channel NewsAsia.
