1-Altitude

ABBEY: This is at the 63rd floor of One Raffles Place. Atie invited us to chill on this bar which gives 360-degree view of Marina Bay. 

Entrance fee is 25sgd on weekdays and 30sgd on weekends; inclusive of 1 drink. Free for all ladies on Wednesday night. Attire is smart casual; no shorts, slippers or flip-flop. 

We tried their portable mushroom pizza (20sgd ++) and spicy platter (30sgd ++). The food was good. It’s better to have reservation so you can have table and seat while munching the cocktail treats.





















WILL: I am so dumb to think that Marina Bay Sands SkyPark is the highest building I can go here in Singapore, damn! When I got here at 1-Altitude, well its name speaks for itself. Ha!, I can see the MBS a bit smaller than where we are.
    
I went here when Atie, her husband and Grace asked us to go a night-out. Its Wednesday night.. Ladies Night! So no entrance fee for the girls but the regular fee was $25.00 with a free drink, you can choose from their juices, soda and mojitos.
    
The view is so perfect and the best time to go there is on sunset, around 7PM and wait until the lights of Singapore glow the night off. This is a great place for some relax chatting with your colleagues and friends, as the winds gently hitting your body and sound of bossa nova band at the background. But if you are like a mad man for a party, hit 1-Altitude 10PM onwards, as the disco music slammed the dance floor.
    
A very great experience, you can find this place just beside the Raffles MRT exit A.
    
Go here, enjoy 360 degrees view of Singapore on the highest level!

Brewbaker’s Kitchen & Bar

ABBEY: We went in this cafe after refreshing dip at Sengkang Community center pools. The cafe is just beside the center. They offer lunch and dinner which you can enjoy with a football match. 

I'm not sure if they serve breakfast though. We had capuccino for less than 5sgd and fish and chips at less than 15sgd. Both taste great and gave a full stomach after a quick snack. 









WILL: After that days' activity, we saw this Brew Bakers and decided to take some coffee before going home. They ordered their different coffee concoction, cafe macchiato $3.80 and cappuccino $4.29, Joshua ordered a iced chocolate $4.80 and I went for fish and chips $14.90. 
      
The fish and chips, OMG the fish is too good, very tender and the tartar sauce really matched with dory. I love it a lot. 
      
It is located near the park and community club of Anchorvale. A perfect place to rest and sip some refreshing drink after jogging or after a swim. Wanna dine and unwind? Beer is served here and watch your favorite team in a football field.

Japanese Restaurant Yayoiken


ABBEY: We found this diner before our movie night commences. This is one of the newest tenant at Bugis+ (formerly Iluma). I tried their pork tonkatsu set. It comes with miso soup, salad, rice and dessert. My set costs 13.9sgd and rice is free flow. 

The whole meal is good; pork is crunchy - perfect match with delicious and fragrant rice. The serving is also large.










WILL: Bugis Iluma was renovated and now one of the tenants of Bugis+ is the Yayoiken Japanese Restaurant. It was located just in first floor and just few steps once you entered the building. Perfect location isn't? 
      We dined here when we won our premiere ticket for the La Chance De Ma Vie (Second Chance). The place is inviting and the ambiance is nice for a dating couple ad yet not pricey. 
      I was craving for a simmering hot soup and noodles then I ordered the Yasai Ramen. A pork base soup with pork meat and vegetables. My first really delights me! The soup have a distinctive taste and the noodles is firm, just what I want for my bowl of ramen. It costs $9.90. Compliments to their wasabi. Lovely!
      Yayoiken at Bugis + is their second branch, you can find the first at the Liang Court Shopping Centre.
