Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer | Marina Bay Sands

ABBEY:  Video Review




Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer | Marina Bay Sands



WILL: We usually go for a buffet but lately our stomachs can’t handle too much food at once, so we went for ala-carte fastfoood. It is Abbey’s birthday and his wish is my command, burger for a 35-year old man! Haha! 


Black Tap creates a buzz here in Singapore due to it’s instagrammable milkshakes. But is the taste and money worth it? 

I ordered lamb burger (non-halal certification). Yeah, it is a real lamb meat. The distinctive aroma and taste is there! Patty is soft and thick. Yea, worthy for it’s price! Each plate comes with fries. Their french fries have no space for air. Haha. I finished the patty, the greens, half bun and 1/4 of the fries. I need to have space for milkshake. 

The milkshake is creamy and sweet. Darn good! It is pricey but that comes with a huge chunk of a slice of cake. 

Yes! Definitely I will go back here. Haha! Hope they will be having a burger day too! 🤗

Desert Safari Dubai Experience

ABBEY: After a tour at Al Fahidi fort we went back to the hotel to refresh and prepare for our Desert Safari tour. We booked it via the hotel for 230AED per person with the inclusion of hotel pickup and drop-off, ATV tour (separate charge if you will ride the ATV), desert cruise, dinner with dance entertainment, camel ride, and sand boarding.


Even though I got dizzy cruising in the sea of sand on a 4x4, I really enjoyed the view after our stop in the middle of the desert. We took snaps of the sunset. It’s just like I was in Aladdin scene. Haha. The sand seems to be alive as it being blown by the wind. This helps contour the sand hills. 

The dinner was superb and full of flavor. I got grilled mutton, fish, pasta, and veggie patties. While having dinner, belly and tanoura dancers show us their graceful moves.


WILL: I never expected to experience the desert..the camel..the sand in real life. This is really a grace from above; thanking NEM Family for this opportunity. 

So what’s with the desert? The feeling of I am in different world. It totally reminds me of Aladdin, one of my favourite Disney cartoon. OMG! Yeah, dreams really do come true. Ok! Enough of my gratefulness words haha. 

I think, this is really a must-do for every tourist of Dubai. Not everyday you will be having a buffet dinner at the middle of nowhere in the desert right? Alluring belly dancing, dizzying tanoura dance and dangerous fire dance - that’s the entertainment part. Camel ride, sand boarding and henna tattoo is up to you to experience. But nothing beats the dune bashing. Haha! 

Splendid happiness!

Spectacle Hut: Designer Glasses & Sunglasses

ABBEY: It was this time of the year that our eyes needs to be checked and replace our specs. We went to Spectacle Hut and found our aviator sunglasses.

I thought the pair wouldn’t suit my eyes but they feel and looks nice. I have them as transition lenses and I look like Maverick (Top Gun) whenever I’m out in the sun. Additional pogi points.

WILL: It is time to change spectacles. Abbey and I, being adventurous, we chose to have the fad, a huge rimmed glasses that is  a fashion around 1970s. Spectacle Hut is a home for a variety of those and they are having a promotion. Lucky us! 

The service at Plaza Singapura and Waterway Point just differs a little. Punggol branch is more helpful in finding the right design for me. Hahah. For this year, no increase or decrease of the lenses. Carrots, sleep and sunlight helped us on taking extra care for our eyes. 

We are blessed because it is reimbursable through Abbey’s company. We are lucky that Spectacle Hut is on promotion, no need to top-up some bucks!
