Sakura Charcoal Grilled and Shabu Shabu


Abbey:
This is indeed the largest charcoal-grilled and shabu-shabu restaurant in SG. With so many choices to choose from, you never know what'll you eat first. Of course, I only tried pork and chicken. I got pork and chicken satay with a peanut sauce dip, pork belly, chicken yakitori, fishball, thin chicken slices for shabu-shabu. Their broth is great, we even managed to have a 2nd round. I got choco and coffee ice cream for dessert. For only less than 35sgd per person, you can cook and eat all you want with free flow of drinks; soda, juice, Milo or coffee. This is located at Marina Country Club, Pulau Ubin. Shuttle is provided opposite Compasspoint in Sengkang (Taxi bay at Blk 257C) or you can take a cab for less than 10sgd from the same place.








WILL: Sakura! We arrived at 5pm and left 8pm. Imagine how big our stomach when we got home. The great thing with this restaurant, they offer a griller and shabu-shabu in one, for only $22.50/pax for wat all u can and free flow drunks, this is not bad for a good date with my Fiance :) 
      I ate almost seafood and finally i munched over a grilled corn. I miss this so much. The eclair, i can eat all their eclair. And sorry Hannah, I also ate dory.

Jetstar

Abbey:
I booked on this airline when I went back to Philippines. Their free check-in baggage is 20kgs that's why I had a shopping spree of Philippine goodies to bring here at SG. Like other airlines, Jetstar also offers seat sale. This gives us another alternative way to get back and forth to SG and Phil.

WILL: This jetstar is quite similar rates to our cebupacific. It is another budget airline to look for. They sale up to 5$ from SIN-KUL. Unlike other budget planes, they have a cafe, they serve pre-cooked foods. Very unlucky of me, we never taste any of their foods, why?, because my eyelids dropped me into a deep slumber. The landing was so smooth, very good pilot eh.

Marina Country Club

Abbey:
This is located to the uttermost part of the earth. Haha. Other people say that our place in Punggol is very far. How will they react if they will go to Marina Country Club? The club can be reached by taking a cab, your own car or by their shuttle. The shuttle picks up visitors in Block 257C (directly opposite CompassPoint in Sengkang). It has arcade, billiards tables, bars, diners like Sakura, shops for souvenirs, baits and tackles. It also has piers for yacht owners. I hope the LRT line will be in operation already so there will  be more convenience going there.



WILL: Punggol has a place to offer, not a mall or an ordinary place to stroll, but a club. A club that is open for public. Here you can stroll at seaside, catch your own fish, and pig out on its restaurants. 
      From punggol MRT you can only take a cab and may worth not more than $6. You can also try to hop in on their free shuttle from Sengkang. On our way there, it feels like I'm hiking up the Baguio's scenery.
      Well recommended.
