Rev Up Singapore! - Thursday Pit Lane Experience 2016

ABBEY: We were able to secure tickets for 2016 Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix Pit Lane experience. And we went there with my brothers-in-law. 

At the entrance, we were given glowing wrist straps; very cool design. Like any other Night Race eve, merchandises, food and drinks were being sold. Free temporary tattoos, podium stage replica photo ops were there also. The Koi Boys gave us wonderful performance before the circuit is open. 

The purpose of the colored wriststraps is for crowd control which is a nice improvement so people will not queue up for so long and not enjoy the live entertainment at the Village Stage. We also got a chance to take snaps of the sexy showgirls of Samba Brasil. 

What I observed is that many of the team garages were closed. So what are we supposed to do on that? They're just gray walls with the name of driver of top. We're ok even only the car will be seen as the driver's appearance is rare. But a closed garage, c'mon. 

I hope it will be better next year.

WILL: Before the roaring engines of Formula 1 cars on weekends are the laughters and handclaps of fans who won a Thursday Pit Lane Experience. :) 

Wohoooo! Now, we are together with my brothers. So what's with 2016's Rev-Up Singapore? Yay, for new wrist straps bracelet light! Yay for the Koi Band from Australia and DJ who plays songs around 80's. Yay for the Brazilian Girls who welcome us on our way to Pit Lane. Hmmm, boo to close garages. C'mon, even a shadow of F1 team's single tire cannot be seen. My excitement suddenly plunged down. 

Well, I enjoyed the performers. I am expecting next year Singapore GP have something up in their sleeves that will rocked the Little Red Dot! It is their 10th year in here and I attended 3 of those! Wooohooo! Can't wait to see the performers lineup next year! :) 

Suggestion? Can you put again a Fan Zone Contest? This will excite all the ticket holders for sure!

Eatery at Four Points by Sheraton Singapore, Riverview (Lunch and Dinner Buffet)

ABBEY: We went here for lunch buffet with Kuya Iking. The buffet is still being setup but they already ushered us to our table. 

It was a seafood buffet and I reminded myself to be more cautious of the food. I think every dish that they can put shrimp into, they did. I had Hokien prawn mee and enjoyed it as I drizzle it with calamansi (palabok style). Also I got pasta, tuna and greek salads. Then I tried their tandoori lamb. It was delicious. For dessert I had chocolate and vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup. To settle it all, I went for coffee. The staff keeps looking at us as we're resting and they keep on asking us to eat more. Maybe they thought that we don't like the buffet. To prove them wrong, we went again at Four Points, this time for dinner, 7 days after our lunch.

It was a lobster feast. Wilma's colleagues went with us and each one was given a half serving of a lobster. What I enjoyed the most are baked halibut, seafood rice, sashimi (I missed this when we had lunch), chicken in paper, and their fried shrimp with wasabi mayo. Definitely it was a feast. 

And to top the experience we got it for 50% off as I'm Starwood Preferred Guest member.

WILL: We were the luckiest person in earth that we both availed the lunch and dinner buffet at Eatery at Four Points by Sheraton for 50% off. Yes! 50% off. Later I will tell you how. ;) 

I am expecting that they have almost have the similar variants on lunch and dinner but surprisingly they have different food served. 

What the best food I have tried on their lunch? It is their scallop dumpling. I almost finish the whole bunch on the steaming machine. Haha! Then on dinner, of course their lobster baked with cheese! Yummmm! Oh! Don't forget to get some gong gong. Deep fried coated shrimp and hot chocolate cake that is available on lunch and dinner buffet are the food that you shouldn't let passed. :) haha. 

So how we got the 50% off in this newly opened Four Points by Sheraton (Riverview)? Because we registered to be a member in here. It is free guys!
