GVMax with Dolby ATMOS Surround Sound Technology at GV VivoCity

ABBEY: I’m excited to watch the Eternals since I saw it’s trailer. New batch of heroes and characters. A group of ten is overwhelmingly specially in the first minutes of the movie; you need to catch up who is who. The story is somewhat a so-so and some of the acting is not that great. 

Good thing we watched in Golden Village GVMax Dolby with Atmos. It somehow saved the movie with the superb sound and screen. The whispers and the intense actions can be heard crisply. But I bet it would have been better if the movie complemented the tech as well. Haha. 

Let’s see in the future if Eternals will redeem themselves.

WILL: You keep on going for an average cinema or you already splurge on a movie with a la-z-boy seat, quilt and a meal? Well, have you tried this kind of IMAX equipped with Atmos?

We experienced the IMAX ‘s large screen plus the spatial, realistic sound of Dolby Atmos at GVMax! For what movie? Eternals!

Well, I know, this is one of the most boring movie you have watched this 2021 but I’ll tell you, that fight scenes a large screen plus this sound technology somewhat make a difference. Maybe, at least it won’t make you fell asleep. Haha!

Check out the GVMax located at VivoCity for your next movie escapades. Oh yeah! How’s the seat? Comfortable and the cinema is as usual freezing cold so don’t forget to wear your jackets!

Spiderman on IMAX with LASER at Jewel Changi Airport

ABBEY: The wait is over as the Spiderman : No Way Home was shown in the big screen. For us it is literally a big screen as we watched it in iMax with laser. 

I can say that it’s worth it. It’s as if you’re in the room with the characters. Top it up with great sound and you can really feel the action. The picture is crystal clear and sharp. Now into the movie, Marvel did an awesome storytelling . The loose ends are tied up (paying homage to Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield) and other branches are getting lined up (Yes, I guess the X-Men are coming). 

It’s the edge-of-your-seat kind of thing; funny, heartbreaking, tearjerking, as well as promising. The Pinoy in me is really proud, thank you Ned’s lola.

WILL: After watching Venom and Eternals, the excitement to watch Spider-Man: No Way Home plunged. The fun thing for me and Abbey is, he doesn’t like what I love and vice versa. Haha! And yes! I am not fond of Spidey! 

Anyways, as a good wife, I booked his requested cinema hall…IMAX with Laser! This kind of technology was only offered by Shaw Theatres on their Jewel and Paya Lebar Quarter. So, we booked at Jewel on a 9am. Yes! Morning. So our eyes are from a good rest and we can see the difference.

Is there a difference? Absolutely! OMG! It seems that you are inside the movie peeking on what’s happening! The seat? Well, Shaw as always gives an ample leg space and aircon is not that cold as others.

This kind of IMAX is truly remarkable and “A MUST” to book for your next favourite movie!

Lutong Ina - Filipino BBQ and Pork Isaw in Singapore

ABBEY: I want pork barbecue. And with the BBQ pits closed, the craving intensified. Good thing we found Lutong Ina. We got pork barbecue in skewers, isaw (pork intestines), grilled hotdog and Pansit Malabon (palabok but from Malabon?) :)
For a total of SGD, craving satisfied. I indulged in the Pinoy version of BBQ even the vinegar dip. Parang bumili ka sa kanto. I thought the isaw is of chicken but it is not. I’ll just say I’m not a fan of pork intestine. The pansit is savory; just make sure to mix it well and drizzle it with calamansi. Felt like home when we feast on them.


WILL: Abbey is having this inihaw (grilled) cravings and I am quite love to have this isaw (intestine) as our dinner for that weekend. On our search we found Lutong Ina which is serving both dishes. 

Sembawang MRT is the meet-up place and when they handed us the package, the common aroma of inihaw made our stomach churn. 
Our orders: 
10pcs - Pork BBQ 
5pcs - Pork Isaw 
1 tub - Pancit Malabon 
1pc - Grilled TJ hotdog 

The vinegar dip is amazing, the common taste street food dip. Pork BBQ - quite chewy but the marinate is amazing. Pork Isaw - smells…hmmm isaw?! hehe, Pancit Malabon is just fine, nothing special. Recommended for you to try! Their price is quite reasonable too.
