If you have not tried popular Taiwanese bubble tea chain Tiger Sugar ’cos of their cray-cray queues, well, good news: they are opening a new branch that will hopefully ease the crowd situation at their current two Capitol Piazza and Chinatown Point outlets. 8Days.sg learnt exclusively that Tiger Sugar's third outlet will be located at the basement of Paragon Shopping Centre on Orchard Road, right beside Ya Kun Kaya Toast cafe.

It's located at Paragon's basement
The takeaway kiosk is still under renovation for now. Interestingly, it takes over the space vacated by fellow bubble tea chain LiHo. The shop is also right beside the mall basement entrance with a spacious pedestrian walkway, so we are guessing there will be more space to queue up (and yasss you don't have to stand so uncomfortably close to your fellow bubble tea addicts, unlike at the Chinatown Point outlet).

It looks similar to their Capitol Piazza branch, with ample space for you to queue up to order and collect your drinks.

Limited-edition Golden Pudding Brown Sugar Milk, $6.80
Tiger Sugar’s managing director, Trevor Fong, had told us earlier: “We are working out something special for the Orchard launch.” Well, that "something" is the limited-edition Golden Pudding Brown Sugar Milk ($6.80), which is essentially their best-selling brown sugar boba milk with 'golden pudding' added to it. It will be served at all three outlets for 10 days only, and it’s limited to 150 cups a day at each outlet.
According to Trevor, the eggy pudding with a soft, wobbly "panna cotta-like" texture is a seasonal item at Taiwan's Tiger Sugar outlets, and will be specially imported into Singapore via air freight in limited quantities after the brand gets the necessary approval from AVA. So fingers crossed that the puddings arrive in Singapore in time for the January 12 opening, and you'll be able to get your paws on a cup. Meanwhile, the full menu from the other outlets will also be available here.

Daniel Caesar’s recent Singapore concert has sparked debate among fans after audience singalongs became a major talking point during the show. Our 8days producer recapped her experience at the concert, sighting many attendees singing loudly along to hits like “Best Part” while Daniel Caesar would step back noticeably from performing parts of the songs himself. Local artist Gareth Fernandez also shared a viral video from the concert that drew discussion online. While some fans felt the audience participation added to the emotional experience, others questioned whether the singer relied too heavily on the crowd during his live performance. #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #danielcaesar #singapore #livemusic

A Singapore victim reportedly lost at least S$4.9 million after joining what appeared to be a Zoom conference call involving Prime Minister Lawrence Wong and other government officials — but police say the meeting was actually created using deepfake AI technology. According to the Singapore Police Force, scammers allegedly used WhatsApp messages, fake government emails, NDAs and AI-generated Zoom footage to convince the victim to transfer funds linked to an “urgent” geopolitical matter involving the Strait of Hormuz. SPF later released footage of the fabricated Zoom call, where telltale signs included strange lip-syncing, distorted backgrounds and unnatural facial movement. In this 8days video, we also test Swapface — a real-time AI deepfake software — to see just how easy modern face-swapping technology has become. #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #singapore #lawrencewong #deepfake

AI-powered robots are becoming increasingly visible across Asia — from South Korea’s new robot monk “Gabi”, to China’s viral humanoid police-assisting robots, and even AI-powered guide dogs in Singapore. In South Korea, Jogye Order recently introduced Gabi, described as the country’s first robot monk, while Kyoto University in Japan unveiled a robot capable of learning Buddhist scriptures and offering guidance. Meanwhile in China, videos of Engine AI’s humanoid T800 robot appearing alongside police officers circulated widely online, sparking discussion about the growing role of artificial intelligence in public life. Singapore has also begun experimenting with AI-assisted robotics, including robotic guide dogs showcased at attractions like Cloud Forest. As AI robots become more advanced and human-like, many online are now debating whether these machines are helpful innovations — or signs of an increasingly automated future. #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #ai #robot #asia
