Tony Roma's Singapore - Signature Trio or Anniversary Trio

ABBEY: Tony Roma's Suntec City celebrates its 20th anniversary. And from July 1 to August 31, they're having an offer to taste their Anniversary and Signature trios, yes for 20SGD++ only. But the magic doesn't end there. It is not only valid in Suntec City but also at their branch at Orchard. 

Since it is halfway between mine and Wilma's office, we went to latter. I got the Anniversary platter. It comes with a soup (potato), mozarella sticks, fish and chips, baby back ribs and salad. As usual I was able to finish it all and my tummy so full. It was a good dinner as we also celebrate Ate Monnette's promotion. So you know who paid the bill :) 

Congratulations Tony Roma's and Ate Monnette.








WILL: This is our second visit in Tony Roma's but this time it is on their Orchard Central branch. They do not accept reservation and we are truly lucky that we arrived there with more unoccupied table. 

We ordered our food while waiting for the star of that dinner, Ate Monnette. We, three girls went for Signature Trio. Once the soup was served my colleagues reached seconds after. We linger in the hot potato soup. Soup is an appetiser but it make us quite full. Haha. Plateful of food was served and we immediately dig in. Their ribs is really remarkable, tender and meat is tasty and the bones also clings on its flavour. The fries is too much and I just got only one few slices of my chicken and Abbey finished my fries. $20.00++ for this is truly a great deal. 

Thanks for the treat newly promoted Ate Monette. :) more more promotion to come. ;)

Changi Museum Singapore

ABBEY: Entrance is free for this museum but to make the experience better, rent their audio guide for 8SGD. It will narrate the events that happened during Japanese occupation on Singapore. 

It was a dark period of Singapore's history. Food was rationed, security was scarce, justice is always given to the one in power. It also exhibits the part of a cell where 3-4 prisoners of war stayed. But even with their bad condition, the POWs still came up with their arts like paintings and other activities to keep their morale up. The narration also contains account of a comfort woman on that time. The heroes of war and all those people who helped for the liberation were listed and given honor at the museum.

The last phase of the tour is the chapel. Despite of what people experience, they still look up to God. Just like what a prisoner prayed every night "to deliver us from present circumstances".



WILL: Are you brave enough to hear the stories of the survivors in Japanese occupation here in Singapore? Their grumbling voice? You can? Then check-out the one of the must-visit place of Singapore...The Changi Museum and Chapel. 

No photos and videos inside please. Pictures and memorabilia will make you feel how cruel that era is. 

You can rent an audio guide to maximize the experience and I will strongly recommend it to you. 

Simple and yet touching presentation guys. My tears are about to welled up. One of my favorite place here in SG.

Prata Wala - Bedok Mall Branch

ABBEY: It was past lunchtime when we finish our visit at Changi Naval Base. We dined in Prata Wala at Bedok Mall. 

Wow, they have fried chicken biryani rice set for 7.50SGD; veggie strips, fried chicken, big serving of briyani rice and pappadum. It was delicious, spicy, and hot. We also have an order of naan and extra pappadums to complete our sumptuous lunch.









WILL: Indian cuisines were either be seen at hawkers or at stand-alone restaurants. Well, this Prata Wala reached out to be a fast-food-like theme. 

Prata Wala is well-known for its, of course, pratas. But that time due to a growling tummy we adhere to our decision of taking rice than pratas in our mains and naan at the side. 

I got buttered chicken. It is delicious. I even asked for mint sauce to elevate more the richness of its flavors. Naan is on its usual taste. 

Next time, we will back to try their pratas. :)
