Centella Classic Facial by Spa Symphony (313@Somerset)

ABBEY: Facial spa session to me is a painful way being good looking :) Whenever we booked an appointment, I'm hoping it will be cancelled. Haha. It is just that my pain tolerance is low. That's why I wondered where did the pain go when we had one at Spa Symphony (313 Somerset).  After laying down, cleansing cream and scrub were put on my face. Next is the steam. Then the pricking began. The staff told me that it will be painful, but to my amazement, it's not the same "ouch" level compared in the Philippines. This is good news for me. After pricking, face massage started. The cream put on me smells good and citrus.  Then the "heavy", cold mask was applied. I slept until the mask hardened. The song on my mind after the mask was removed is "I can't feel my face when I'm with you". Haha. My face felt very light. It is as if I became teenager again.  Thanks Spa Symphony.

Encik Tan @ Waterway Point Punggol

ABBEY: One time after buying grocery items from Fairprice (Waterway Point), we passed buy Encik Tan and saw long queue. This is the same scenario even by the day we tried to order.  We brought home chicken leg/cutlet curry rice. Those are their special items. The gravy is spicy, creamy, and delicious. It really went well with the rice and fried chicken. However it seems that the serving for dine in is more than the take-away. Meaning, we have to come back there :)  They also serve noodles, hot and cold drinks. Encik Tan's Chicken Drumstick Set Encik Tan's Menu WILL:  Why there is always a long queue? I glanced at the menu and surprisingly the value is reasonable. Then I told Abbey to try the food in there.  One night, when we are running out of time for us to cook, I pulled Abbey to this restaurant and instructed him to queue while I am giving an eye on our grocery carts. Few minutes later, he is on the cashier ordering and paying our meal, it is fo...

Wildfire Burgers + Bar Singapore - 313@Somerset

ABBEY: We visited Wildfire Burger at 313 Somerset near Marché.  The house is almost full. I got The Works burger; beef patty, bacon weave, onion rings, and fried egg. It also came with fries. The fries has smoky flavour which give the unique taste. What I enjoyed the most is the beef patty. It was so moist that the juices is coming out whenever I cut it into chewy bites.  We only pay 34SGD as we have 20SGD voucher from the mall. Wildfire Burgers Menu Wildfire's 'Truffle Mushroom' Wildfire's 'The Works' WILL:  We got a $20 voucher, free, when we avail the package of Symphony Spa . And just before it expires, we went to 313@Somerset to redeem it. We chose to dine at Wildfire Burger. We didn't call for reservations and we are quite shocked that the tables were reserved. Just in luck, we got seat to take. Ahmm, should I say high seat...high chair and high table, haha!  Abbey chose burger for me, and he picked truffled mushroom ($23)...

Singapore Night Festival 2016

ABBEY: We went out and see what the 9th year of Singapore Night Festival has to offer.  We got to see the stickmen dancing, playing and jumping in the facade of National Museum. They are artwork from France called Keyframes. Another show is the Wheel House (on museum's mainground). It is an acrobatic show on a big wheel. Maybe it would be better if there's a spotlight and louder sound for the performance. While the other spectators were busy where to go next I went back to where the Keyframe was installed and I was able to see Les AquamenS. They are men-in-black with upside down bowl aquarium as helmets.  Yes, an upsidedown aquarium; meaning with water and fish.  Unfortunately, there were no more seats for the The Story Box show and the next performance will be too late. So we headed to Philatelic Museum where the songs from Shakespeare's works were played. I looked forward for The Siege: A light saber sword fight. But to my disappointment, they used the street rath...

Centara Ras Fushi Resort & Spa Maldives - De Luxe Spa Over Water Villa (5th Wedding Anniversary Celebration)

ABBEY: We landed in Male, Maldives 3PM local time. After a 25-minute speedboat ride, we reached Centara Ras Fushi resort where we were ushered at their lobby for resort orientation. A couple of minutes passed, then we were given our pair of keys, ride on to a golf cart and transported to our water villa. Our home for our stay has a jacuzzi, king-size bed, an office table, walk-in closet,  docking station for phones, tv, dvd player, ceiling fan, telephones, safety box, mini bar,  toilet,  and bath. I'll be listing out the resort's features. Spa Since we're already on the island, we booked for a 60-minute foot spa for 90USD++ each. We were led to a small villa and then they washed our feet in warm water. This is a foot spa but we laid to a spa table and a couple of minutes later I'm off to Dreamland. The massage is relaxing. I think I snored a lot. After the session, we were given dried fruit and tea. Bars: They offer wines, cocktails, mocktails, coffee,...
