THE TIGRESS BETWEEN THE COVERS

Do you subscribe to the concept of synchronizität, or synchronicity? Introduced by Carl Jung in the 1920s, it was sanctified and given full expression in his 1952 paper ‘Synchronizität als ein Prinzip akausaler Zusammenhänge’. The Acausal Connecting Principle posits that events are ‘meaningful coincidences’ if they occur with no causal relationship yet seem to be meaningfully related.

Synchronicity took me to the doorstep of Preludio, one of Singapore’s most talked about restaurant openings of 2018.

It is a thrilling time to be eating in Singapore. Of course, my point of view is skewed because I am Singaporean, and proudly so. But just because the opinion is biased does not make it less true. Please do not take my word for it; just ask the interwebs, because clearly it knows the last word.
