πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¬ Chara Brasserie Buffet at Mercure ICON -- 25% Off Promotion & Must-Try Seafood and Lamb Dishes

ABBEY: Everybody is talking about Chara Braserrie and we want to know if the hype is all worth it so off we go. We arrived 15 minutes early before they open at 6PM but they ushered us to our table. Boy, good thing I’m able to capture some good clips of the food. By the time I’m done people started to queue up and next thing we know the lobsters are gone. Haha. 

I asked for the lamb but was told only to be available after an hour. It was the star of the show but wasn’t ready. I got a slice (literally) of beef short ribs and I can say it’s not that good. The meat has a chewed up texture and almost dry. Same dryness as well as almost hard for the chicken satays. The lamb somehow redeemed it with its milky taste and moisture meat; really went well with the mint sauce. 

I also had a couple servings of seabass; no need for sauce as it is juicy and flavorful. Sushi and sashimi were also available. Don’t forget to have their pickled ginger (very nice) to clean your pallete. For dessert I had chocolate tart and watermelon.

Chara Brasserie Hotel Buffet: 25% Off Promotion & Must-Try Seafood and Lamb Dishes



WILL: Are you looking for the newest hotel buffet with a great deal? Chara Brasserie offers a 25% off promotion this month!


Upon entering, you'll first encounter the dessert table, but let's skip ahead to the main attractions. Head straight to the seafood table at the back, where you can indulge in lobster and oysters. If crustaceans isn’t your thing, there’s a selection of sashimi and sushi right next to it. You’ll also find a DIY rojak station, which seems to be overlooked by most guests.

Moving on, you'll see the roasted beef, which may appear overcooked to some. The real crowd-pleaser, however, is the lamb, which always has a long queue.


The highlight of Chara Brasserie's buffet is undoubtedly the lobster and whole lamb. Without these, the buffet might not be as enticing.


We decided to try it out, especially since we had a 50% discount with our AccorPlus membership. Was it worth the hype? Yes. Would we return if already in it’s regular price? Probably not. Why? Let’s #BeReal; we are expecting a wide array of food given the price point of $78++ — not value for money. 


Make your reservation today, enjoy the feast at Chara Brasserie while there’s a promotion!

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡­LΓ€derach, 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 LΓ€derach 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 LΓ€derach 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...

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...

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...
