Songs of the Sea

ABBEY: This kind of presentation is a first for me to see. The show sprays jet of water that will serve as the screen as the light and images are projected on it. The sound adds excitement and thrills as you watch the show. This is a must-see performance.









WILL: Spectacular. Very nice production. This is a must to see when you go to Sentosa. For only SGD10.00 you can get the seat in this good display of water, lights even fire.

IKEA Restaurant (Tampines)

ABBEY: What's best after a week of night shift? Have an affordable feast. We went to IKEA to search for rice box, with an empty stomach. When we got there we were greeted by a large tarpaulin with foods served at IKEA. My stomach went crazy as I smelled the food. I told her we can get the box later and have the meal now. I got their Christmas special (toasted buns, boiled carrot and potato, ham and sausage). The meal is 21SGD, 2 set meal with cake and drinks. A nice dinner indeed. We also got the box after.





WILL: Its a Sunday afternoon and we just want roam around. We hopped in at Bus 34 and just a 3 stops, tannnaaaa! IKEA. We took our lunch, hulaan niyo anong time, 4pm. Kakagising lng ni Abbey from his night shift. I don't want to eat alone.
      
So we tried their Season special as we saw on their monthly newsletter sending to our pad. No rice, just potato for the carbo supply. It seems that the taste is quite bland taste, but is is okay for me. 
      
The best recommendation when you will go here is to grab some chicken hotdog, only for a dollar.

Stewords Riverboat

ABBEY: We celebrated our 2nd anniversary here. I can't have anymore plans to take her out since she told me that she already has. I even try to spoil the surprise with all my powers but no luck. I'm blind to what was about to unfold. I asked her not to surprise me much because I'll pass out. Hahaha. I was totally awed when we got to the place. It's a restaurant on the water, the Stewords Riverboat.  I tried their recommended dish, Tex-Mex grilled chicken. It was cut in a heart-shape and served with grilled veggies. Its very good. Cost is no more than 40SGD. To make it more romantic, I'm surprised when I saw the bill, our table is numbered 143 :) Happy Anniversary.






WILL: It was our 2nd year. Yahoooo! And as I mentioned earlier to the Centrum post, I do not have ideas for a nice gift for Abbey. Kaya I proposed a dinner. 
      
I am quite excited and booked for two one week before, and asked abbey not to plan any eat-out on that night. So when he meet me at International Plaza, we hailed the bus 402 and alight at the last bus stop. Looking at Abbey's face, very natural, no excitement, just nothing. But when we get almost at the side of the sea and when I pointed out the Stewords Boat, delight is all over his face. A new experience to try :)
      
A courteous staff welcomed us and gave me a free ladies drink.. ladies' night(Thursdays), sorry Abbey. The food tastes nice and of course, they have a big serving. There is live performer too. 
      
The ambiance is so nice, romantic, fairly lit. Recommended.
