Earle Swensen's at VivoCity

ABBEY: We have redeemed dining vouchers with our bank card points a couple of times. And now that it has come to an end, we tried to use it on Earle Swensen's. We visited their branch at Vivo City mall. 

The reception area is small but once you were ushered to your seat, you will find the dining area has a lot of space and very comfy.

I ordered fish and chips as I was craving for fries. Unfortunately, the fries was cooked "well done". I didn't have the time to ask for replacement since I ate half of it already and the fries somehow tasted good as they are crispy.

Also, the salad bar is open. So we packed our plates with cherry tomatoes, croutons and greens. We also got a rootbeer float. Total bill? 63sgd, but we paid only 3sgd. Thanks for the vouchers. It was a good meal.













WILL: First of all, thank you so much to Citibank Singapore for this $60.00 voucher. We had our ice cream at Swensen's before but what is with Earle Swensen's at VivoCity? Let's find out.

The Earle Swensen's VivoCity branch has a quite cosy feeling than the other Swensen's branches. We sat on a very comfy seat and ordered. Savory Chicken Baked Rice and Rootbeer Float for me and Abbey had Fish and Chips and Tuna Quesadillas for an appetiser  After we stated our wants, the server told us to help ourselves at the salad bar. I am a fan of leafy green vegetables so I really went gaga when I found out that it is a SALAD BUFFET!!!

Let's do the verdict at my food. The chicken baked rice is not so creamy. Sad. Lacked of sauce. I just gave to my husband half of it in exchange of his fries. In my disappointment with my meal, I just fill up my tummy with their salad. The rootbeer is perfect. So smooth! 

Next time, we will try your San Francisco style grilled menu.

Swensen's Ice Cream


ABBEY:
We tried Swensen's because we got a pair of 1-for-1 voucher when we pass by their shop near Cathay Cineplex. You just have to say "hello" and you can the free voucher :) Wasn't it good? I told Wilma we will use all the ticket, but as her tummy is small it can't accommodate all the sundaes. Mine was Gold Rush sundae and Wilma's was Hot Fudge which amounted for less than 8SGD. The sundaes were good. Sarap ng chocolate flavor pti yung wafer nila. We didn't hang out that long because Harry is waiting :)




WILL: What is Swensen's? A ice cream shop established by Swensen of course. hehehe. I never thought eating up their ice cream, why? because the ambiance of their stalls are bit intimadting for my wallet. hehehe.. Poor Lady.
      Then here comes the time when we passed one of their stall in Orchard. A man standing there with a mic asking passers to just say "hi" to him and we will get a voucher and some goodies. At first we thought it was just a bluff but it is not. Abbey say "hi" and walah! the vouchers and some snack is on his hand. When the man saw me behind my fiance, he asked me to say "hello" for him so I can have my own pack. Ayun, we ended up having two bags of goodies and two set of Swensen's voucher.
      We really planned to watch movie at Cathay Cineplex to redeem the said voucher. There is something that I can't explain that make this cold sweet cream so nice. Ending, BUSOG SA ICE CREAM. hehehe.
