Wildfire Burgers + Bar Singapore - 313@Somerset

ABBEY: We visited Wildfire Burger at 313 Somerset near Marché.  The house is almost full. I got The Works burger; beef patty, bacon weave, onion rings, and fried egg. It also came with fries. The fries has smoky flavour which give the unique taste. What I enjoyed the most is the beef patty. It was so moist that the juices is coming out whenever I cut it into chewy bites.  We only pay 34SGD as we have 20SGD voucher from the mall. Wildfire Burgers Menu Wildfire's 'Truffle Mushroom' Wildfire's 'The Works' WILL:  We got a $20 voucher, free, when we avail the package of Symphony Spa . And just before it expires, we went to 313@Somerset to redeem it. We chose to dine at Wildfire Burger. We didn't call for reservations and we are quite shocked that the tables were reserved. Just in luck, we got seat to take. Ahmm, should I say high seat...high chair and high table, haha!  Abbey chose burger for me, and he picked truffled mushroom ($23)...

Singapore Night Festival 2016

ABBEY: We went out and see what the 9th year of Singapore Night Festival has to offer.  We got to see the stickmen dancing, playing and jumping in the facade of National Museum. They are artwork from France called Keyframes. Another show is the Wheel House (on museum's mainground). It is an acrobatic show on a big wheel. Maybe it would be better if there's a spotlight and louder sound for the performance. While the other spectators were busy where to go next I went back to where the Keyframe was installed and I was able to see Les AquamenS. They are men-in-black with upside down bowl aquarium as helmets.  Yes, an upsidedown aquarium; meaning with water and fish.  Unfortunately, there were no more seats for the The Story Box show and the next performance will be too late. So we headed to Philatelic Museum where the songs from Shakespeare's works were played. I looked forward for The Siege: A light saber sword fight. But to my disappointment, they used the street rath...

Centara Ras Fushi Resort & Spa Maldives - De Luxe Spa Over Water Villa (5th Wedding Anniversary Celebration)

ABBEY: We landed in Male, Maldives 3PM local time. After a 25-minute speedboat ride, we reached Centara Ras Fushi resort where we were ushered at their lobby for resort orientation. A couple of minutes passed, then we were given our pair of keys, ride on to a golf cart and transported to our water villa. Our home for our stay has a jacuzzi, king-size bed, an office table, walk-in closet,  docking station for phones, tv, dvd player, ceiling fan, telephones, safety box, mini bar,  toilet,  and bath. I'll be listing out the resort's features. Spa Since we're already on the island, we booked for a 60-minute foot spa for 90USD++ each. We were led to a small villa and then they washed our feet in warm water. This is a foot spa but we laid to a spa table and a couple of minutes later I'm off to Dreamland. The massage is relaxing. I think I snored a lot. After the session, we were given dried fruit and tea. Bars: They offer wines, cocktails, mocktails, coffee,...

SriLankan Airlines (Singapore - Male/Maldives - Singapore)

ABBEY: SriLankan Airlines was our airline going to Maldives and back. The route was from Singapore to Colombo, Sri Lanka to Male, Maldives.  We were able to board a couple of different aircraft model during our round trip. The staffs were all-smiles, greeting and assisting passengers as they board. The meal is good; enough to satisfy my hunger.  I was even surprised that the chicken satay are still in the skewers. They have movie on board, but we have a couple of our flights where the monitor is not working.  They have cameras below and behind  the plane and on that  you can watch the plane take off, and check what's below while up in the air. It was a first for me.  One thing I keep wondering is that why they are spraying some kind of anti-bacterial or deodorizer when we landed to Sri Lanka and Maldives. It is an aerosol and I think they empty 2 cans each per aisle. What's the use of that? Good thing me and Wilma don't have asthma. ...

dnata Lounge (Singapore Changi Terminal 3)

ABBEY: We used our annual Priority Pass to access airport lounges for free. This time, we went to dnata Terminal 3 lounge.  They were serving breakfast when we visited and this includes congee, croissant, brown and white bread, red bean bun, chicken siew mai, cornflakes, coffee and tea. They also have softdrinks, wine, beer, and ale.  I indulged in their siew mai dipped in soy sauce. Wow. They also have a shower and reading rooms. On further back of the lounge, you can see the planes.... dnata Lobby Comfortable Sofa   Food Aisle WILL:  DNATA Lounge at Changi Terminal 3 won the Best Indepent Airport Lounge 2015 award and of course it makes me curious to check it out.  We were greeted by an all-smile staff in their lobby. And as we enter the place we were welcomed by the food served in the middle of the area. They are serving breakfast that time and I am astounded that they have siew mai. Yes, I indulged in that food, then I tri...

Jason Bourne (2016)

ABBEY: I liked Jason Bourne movies.  I don't know if there exist a human who have such kind of talent who know who are the enemies in his environment. But that makes him unique. After all those years and his skill, he was not able to decipher who he really is. Poor fellow.  I got dizzy on the action scenes at the beginning. Wow, the cameras move fast, very fast.  Disguises, wittiness, cleverness were used by Jason to reach the top floor and meet the villain who wants him down. You can guess how it ends. I think this will be the last. One more and it will be a drag. Shaw Theatres Waterway Point Ticket WILL:  I am fan of Jason Bourne or should I say Matt Damon, or Jason Bourne or Matt Damon. Haha.  So Bourne came back into the silverscreen. In this movie, he now somewhat knew about his dad and why/what joined the project.  A total action! Worthy of my time! See you again Jason! I know you have more surprises up on your sleeves to finish this...

Tenderfresh Classic (Waterway Point)

ABBEY: Before watching the latest installment of Bourne franchise, we first fill up our belly at Tenderfresh.  This restaurant is unique. Yes, you will be given a table and then menu. But you will queue up to order, pay it, wait for your pager to light up and collect it.  For 7.50SGD I had their Lucky Set which includes 2 pieces of fried chicken, fries and coleslaw. The chicken is crunchy, hot, and moist in the inside. The fries has a good amount of serving that I enjoyed dipping in tomato ketchup. Their coleslaw is creamy which differs from other and it is good. They also have tuna, pasta and rice on their menu. Chicken Cutlet Rice Lucky Set  Menu Menu WILL:  After our seminar with Fausto Couple about behaviours about money and before our not so planned movie date, we dropped by at Tenderfresh chicken.  This is a self-service restaurant, you order at the cashier and you pick-up the food at the counter.  I went for chicken cu...

THREE by Table Concepts @ Seletar Mall

ABBEY: I'm trying to look where can I date my baby when I come across Three by Table Concepts at Seletar Mall. As the name implies, there are three cuisines: Japanese, French and Thai.  I ordered their chef-recommended Thai Basil Pork Rice; a rice entry with minced pork in sweet thick soy sauce, chopped red chillis, and basil. It was a delight and delicious.  I can eat this whole day. Minced pork in sauce with newly cooked white rice is the treat. Next time, we'll try the French and Japanese cuisines. Basil Pork Rice Chicken Curry Rice Thai Menu WILL:  Abbey asked where we'll dine after my dentist visit at Q&M.. My answer is so simple "surprise me". Then he guided me to Three by Table Concepts.  It is a restaurant composed of 2 diners in it. The cuisines you can choose from are French, Japanese and Thai. We went for Thai. I am bit hesitant to go for Chicken Curry Rice, but I still ordered it. Wow. The taste is magnificent. It ev...
