Singapore Maritime Week 2013

ABBEY: Wilma got a long story when she went to Singapore Maritime Exhibit on Vivo City last 2012. She told me that she was teary-eyed as she was dreaming of Philippines to be that bigtime in maritime industry. But in reality, it'll take maybe forever to be in that position. 

We went to Plaza Singapura and it happened that the exhibition was there. We went to it and I was amazed how this city-state became a prime in international trading. 

It displayed models of cargo ships that travels across the globe for business. In there also are models for oil rigs; the number one commodity in the world. You can get souvenir postcards as well as key chains. Along the exhibit is the T-shirt design contest. They were beautiful and eye-catching; but sadly there were no replicas for sale. Twas an informative and fun exhibit.












WILL: As I was educated by the history and humble beginning of now the busiest port of world, I am always on the look for next Singapore Maritime Week. 
      Last year, Singapore flaunt how they begin to dream, now, 2013 the Singapore Maritime Week flashed to the public how  successful the O&M (Offshore & Marine) engineering services this little island have. 
      They really want to tap and update as many people they can as MPA build three exhibits... In VivoCity, NEX Mall and the main is where we went, at the Plaza Singapura. They also ask students from different schools to design a shirt. So sad they do not have pieces for sale. 
      Well, we are so great that even we do not memorize the answer at the question, the people behind the counter gave as some cute keychains of Ponzi. :) 
      Next time! We can't wait :)

🇨🇭Läderach, Lindt or Cailler? Which is the Best Chocolate Museum in Switzerland?

ABBEY: I am a BIG fan of chocolate. And there’s no way we’ll be missing the chocolate factories when we go to Switzerland. Upon landing in Zurich, we dropped our luggages at the hotel and off we go to our first order of “business”: go to House of Läderach at Bilten. The train staff even told us that it’s far and we should go to Lindt instead. Little did he know that we will go there as well. House of Läderach is not that much crowdy and we liked it. We explore the museum how the chocolate was made. We had a sensory experience where we got a chance to taste their chocolate while watching a video that explains how to spot fresh chocolates. Upon seeing their molds, process, and their story we were led to four fountains. Yes, they are all chocolate; milk, dark, white, and blonde. We also experienced to be a chocolatier even for a while. I made my own bar with pistachios and pine nuts and completed it with a ribbon. And while in queue at the cashier we were given samples of liqueur chocola...

Shaw Theatres premiere Review: Is This Premium Cinema Worth It?

ABBEY:  Recently, we finally got to experience the newly renovated Shaw Theatres Lido along Orchard Road just in time for The Devil Wears Prada 2 hitting the silver screen. From the moment we stepped in, it was clear that Shaw has elevated the cinema experience into something far more premium and comfortable for moviegoers in Singapore. One of the first things you will notice is the impressive selection of food and beverage options available. Guests are spoiled for choice with concepts like Centro, Espresso and Matcha Bar , and even a Cocktail Bar, making it feel more like an upscale lounge than a traditional cinema. If you are planning a date night or weekend movie experience, the value is surprisingly decent too. A SGD90 package already includes a pair of Lido Premiere tickets along with two SGD15 F&B credits. The service also stood out during our visit. An usher personally welcomed us and guided us to our leather recliner seats while explaining how the in-seat servi...

Duo Deluxe Golden Village - Paya Lebar Laser-projected Movie Hall

ABBEY: Golden Village Paya Lebar boasts its laser projection system and its spacious twin leather seats. So we went ahead and watch Justice League on a weekend.  Only the food and drinks bought in the cinema will be allowed.  I thought the seats are able to recline but its not. The space between the other twins are not that apart. I can still feel the feet or maybe the knee of the person behind me.  When it comes to the projection I don’t find any difference with other cinema. Maybe I’m not just keen into that technology. Duo Deluxe Golden Village - SEAT  Duo Deluxe Golden Village - TICKET PRICE Duo Deluxe Golden Village -  WILL:  We are not that bored to the old seat or lazy boys kind of cinemas, we just want to explore new things to serve our readers. So here, we went to the first laser cinema of Golden Village at Singapore Post (Paya Lebar).  This Duo Deluxe is one of the latest offering of GV! It has leather seat...
