Pegasus Boutique Hotel - One of Singapore’s Iconic Heritage Buildings

ABBEY: Wilma booked this hotel reservation at Pegasus Boutique Hotel in time for our 7th year wedding anniversary. It is a boutique hotel so there will be no fancy lobby or amenities. 

Our room is spacious and had new sheets :) The place is kampong (province-like) and quiet. The shower head holder is broken and there is no door to separate the shower from the toilet. Maybe I just don’t know how to operate the TV but the available channels can be counted with my fingers. And it gives static sound whenever you use it. Anyways, we went there to relax and I had a good sleep. I feel refreshed in the morning.

You can spend time in a bar adjacent to the hotel or try a 10-minute walk to the Grandstand.

WILL: It is our 7th year anniversary and I am on sabbatical leave. Luckily, Pegasus Hotel offered an irresistable promotion! A S$48++ a night on their abode. 

Based on their location and building structure, I know what should I expect. And I am right! A simple "kampong" style rooms! 

Throw away the idea of lavish 5-star hotels and indulge in the simplicity of life and nature around. This is not your claustrophobic type hotel you can check-in the CBD area. :) 

The room has its basic needs. A bed, tv, bathroom, airconditioning, a fridge. Amenities are pool, a bbq pit and just a small bar in front of the reception area. 

Oh one more thing, it reminds me of provinces in Philippines. We turned-off the aircon around 10pm because it is very cold inside the room. And around 5am a rooster will wake you up! Haha! Nice! 

Enjoyed the surroundings! Can we declare this as "province" of Singapore? Hehe! One more thing! The staffs around are lovely! Smiles never left their faces.

Kotobuki Coffee at Wisma Atria Orchard

ABBEY: We had our lunch date at Kotobuki Japanese Restaurant. A lunch set starts at SGD 9.90 with free flow of salad, coffee and tea. 

I ordered Yakiniku Don; sliced pork rice bowl. The sweet teriyaki sauce runs through the meat and into the rice. This goes well with shredded cabbage, cherry tomatoes and balsamic vinegar as side dish.

WILL: After my session on underarm IPL, Abbey and I went to Wisma Atria for our lunch. 

A big banner at the escalator advertises that Kotobuki having a set lunch for S$9.90+ with free flow of salad, tea and coffee. Well, who will not grab that deal right? 

Before Katsu Jyu was serve on my table, we straight away go to the salad table and I fell for in love with their potato salad and marinates seaweeds. My tummy became full in no time. 

For Pork Katsu , the rice is amazingly heavy and the Pork Katsu is tender enough and you can swallow by two or three chew. Haha! 

This is a little bit too much for about S$10. Thanks Kotobuki. Definitely recommendable.

PappaMia (Changi Airport Terminal 1) - Singapore

ABBEY: Before NEM PH team head back to Philippines we spent lunch with them at PappaMia (Changi Airport Terminal 1). 

The restaurant offers Western, Malaysian and Singaporean foods. 

I had fried rice with egg and chicken. The serving is big and made me full. We also have chicken skewers and I can tell you that they are spicy. But I like it. You can still taste the savory chicken even your tongue is little numb :)

WILL: At Changi Terminal 1, Abbey and I meet for the last time the NEM Philippines team before they head back to Manila. 

We ate lunch at PappaMia and I chose to have Tom Yam Seafood Noodles!

The sour aroma of the soup will make you drool but you will be surprised to taste that the sourness is just enough to balance everything in the bowl. Spicy? Not that remarkable. But the whole bowl is a total healthy meal. Carbo and protein is there! 

It costs $9.90. Well, if you want a non-fastfood and tummy-filling meal at Changi Terminal 1, dine at PappaMia
