1983 - A Taste of Nanyang

ABBEY: This "sosyal" hawker caters Indonesian, Malaysian and Western cuisines. It's located in Basement 1 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 1. At 6.80sgd, I had nasi lemak. The chicken serving is large and the rice is flavorful. The fish though is cold. It's as if it came from the fridge. Drink starts from 1.50sgd.

WILL: Who say that every restaurant at The Shoppes of Marina Bay Sands is expensive? Some don't want to roam around here because they say all the food outlets will costs them a minimum of $20 each. Except of the Rasapura Masters which is their version of hawker, you can also go to 1983 A Taste of Nanyang. 
     They offer our favorite Indonesian Cuisine, the nasi lemak. For only $6.50 you will have a big piece of chicken. a whole fish, and their very own special rice. So great that I always asked Abbey to dine in here whenever we were at MBS. value of money with a full tummy. :) 

District 10 Bar & Restaurant - The Star Vista Branch Grand Opening

ABBEY: Believe it or not I spent nothing on my birthday treat. It was also the opening day of District 10 at Star Vista mall near Buona Vista MRT station. I think it was a gift that my wife and my Facebook account won a pair of invites on the party. Wow, it was a party of four :) 

The event started 7pm. Each guest were a given a drink; be it champagne, wine, beer or soda. Then came the servings of beef skewers, spring rolls, sliders and the special pizza. The food was great with special mention of pizza. It has a good aroma, crusty and tastes very good. Party music made the event more lively and cheerful. We managed to made some acquaintances and had a snap with the chef and the owner himself. 

It was a nice birthday celebration. Happy birthday, District 10.

WILL: Our stay at Marina Bay Sands is my real gift for my husband but that was Nov 11-12, his birthday is Nov 14, and I want to have a simple dinner for him. My head is spinning while thinking where I should I bring the celebrant on his natal day.

      While browsing, I saw District 10 Grand Opening at Star Vista, we recently moved and Buona Vista is just an MRT station away from us, so this will be a great place. To know more about the restaurant I browse their website and hit the "like" button for their Facebook page. Looking and looking, I saw that they are holding a giveaway contest and the price is a ticket for two for their grand opening on 14/11/2012.

      Abbey sent a poem and I just post a simple and yet meaningful comment why I want to go and have a party with them. We won and my husband's party has a lot of beautiful and positive-vibe guests. Ha!

      We feel every second of this party, we met many people from different countries, air was filled of nice music and laughter, we ate all we pizza, sliders, drumsticks, beef, and the mouthwatering prawns. Gulped red wine and sodas.

     This is a great place to unwind. District 10 is now having a promotion for their Christmas and New Year, come and visit their UE and Star Vista branches.

Sky on 57 Breakfast Buffet

ABBEY: After a good night sleep at a very homey room in Marina Bay Sands, we headed to level 57 for breaking the fast. We were given a good seat by their beautiful staff, Jennie ( I don't know if I spelled her name right). I indulge myself on bacon and eggs ( egg benedict, ). 

I also tried their pasta, fried rice and congee. Indeed, it was a good morning; waking up with your loved one and together spending time for breakfast. A buffet costs 38sgd++ including drinks.

WILL: Every hotel I stayed, I am always looking forward to breakfast buffet that they will offer to their guests. But breakfast in Marina Bay Sands room rate is not included. After Abbey heard that he immediately asked me to make a reservation to The Rise, since we experienced the buffet dinner here courtesy of my boss in Rejoice Container, a really unforgettable free dinner.

      We experienced The Rise buffet and I am up to another experience, so I want to dine overlooking the bay and the busy port of Singapore so I chose to dine here at Sky 57. I am an enthusiast of import/export, I love to see cargo ships sailing, transtrainer busy loading and discharging the container, and it will be a great view for me if we eat-in at Sky on 57.

      For $38++ you can savor the very delectable egg benedict and tonokotsu ramen, croissants "croque madam", cappuccino and hot chocolate (available by order). On the table, your eyes and tummy can feast with the crispy bacons, breads, sausages, every fruits you can imagine, salad, cheeses, and even the yogurt.

      From 7AM to 10AM you can sit there and fill in your stomach with their delights. Salute to their lovely and very approachable waiter and waitresses.

      Thanks Sky on 57, you made our MBS staycation really unforgettable.
