Dinner at Marina Bay Sands - Beanstro

Initially a few of us want to dine at Ku De Ta on Monday night but was fully booked. We had to walk around the mall at MBS to look for restaurants and most are fully booked too. In the end, some of the friends went to eat at the food court at MBS. However bestie and I went to dine at Beanstro, a cafe by the Coffee Bean and Tea. It was the only place that we can find that still has seats for us at about 8pm dinner. Bravo :))


We quickly ordered our food as we were famished from all the walkings at MBS. We had the Christmas special - Roast Lamb Leg which fashionably yours find it abit cold but still ok. We also had their Christmas cakes - Linzer and Florentine fruit cake. I like the Linzer cake because it has my favourite strawberry on top of the cake. I love to eat cakes. We drank the swedish berries tea which according to the waitress is their best selling tea.
Shortly after we had our dinner, our two girlfriends - KJ-san and SY-san joined us for drinks here while we chit chat the night away before we head home sweet home.

Marina Bay Sands - 27 Dec 2010

Fashionably yours was at Marina Bay Sands on Monday. Met up with bestie and friends to go to MBS. I enjoyed myself at the skypark. I was like a little girl jumping up and down so excited at the skypark, taking lots of pictures. The view is spectacular from the skypark. Very cooling. Love it there.


The skypark is at 57 floor. We wanted to dine at Ku De Ta but was fully booked, so disappointed. I will be back to dine and/or club at Ku De Ta someday.


After the skypark, we walked around the shoping malls to look for restaurant for dinner. Most restaurants were fully booked. Finally bestie and I found Beanstro which has seat for us (will blog in another post).

There is an ice skating rink at mbs besides the casino. Alot of luxury shops and saw the small river for gondola inside the mall. The mall is pretty quiet and I wonder how these retailers are going to survive.


If you have an afternonn to whirl time away, you can go to shopping mall at MBS to shop. It is advisable to make reservations at the restaurants. The food there mostly are exorbitant priced, so be prepared to pay for expensive foods.


Fashionably yours is a member of MBS now which I applied at the concierge. Membership can earn points and get discounts for some entertainments at MBS.

Christmas deco at Mandarin Gallery, Paragon and Ngee Ann City

Fashionably yours walked along Orchard road and saw this Christmas deco at Mandarin Gallery. It is so cute that I must take pictures. The sheeps are so fat that L-san called them body builder sheep. The cows are so thin that can see the ribs as what K-san told me. We all had a good laugh. However I find the deco is very nice, cute and like it. I like to see the fat sheeps.


I prefer the Christmas deco at Marina area than the Orchard area. The Christmas deco at Orchard Road seems like Deepavali deco.


Wishing everyone Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2011.

Happy Holidays.

Lunch

Had lunch with J-san, K-san and L-san last week at Cineleisure. We had Pontian Wanton noodles. They have Set A and Set B. Set A is the wanton noodles served with hot desserts while Set B is the wanton noodles served with a glass of cold drink. Each set cost SGD4.50.


First you quene up to order your noodles, then they will give you a number. When your number is flashed on the flash board, you go to collect your noodles. Fashionably yours told them the systems is similar like seeing doctor, must wait for number to be called to collect your food.


You can add noodles for 50cents if you want to eat more. Usually guys will add noodles. It is just nice for me so far. 2 weeks ago, while we were there, the hot dessert served was barley gingko nuts which is my favoruite. They usually have red beans and green bean soup which I took the mixed green and red bean soup this time round.

Last Saturday of October 2010

Today is the last Saturday of October 2010.  In about 7 weeks time, Christmas will be here and in about 8 weeks time, 2011 arrives.  The Christmas decorations are up in Orchard Road now.  It has different colour for different sector.  I saw pink, blue and purple deco. I love the purple deco along Somerset. 

Fashionably yours do not enjoy my 2010 so far.  It has been a roller coaster ride so far in 2010 for me.  More tears and sadness than happiness.  Always telling my friends to wake me up when 2010 ended.  Well, I hope 2010 will end with a good note and begin 2011 with a good note for me.  Nevertheless, will let go and let god. 

Last but not least, thanking everyone for your support by visiting and reading my blog.  Feel free to come by my blog anytime.  I will try to update my blog whenever possible.

Wishing everyone a fantastic weekend and Happy Halloween.

Cheers *hugs*

Bad Haze

The haze is back to the Lion City. The wind direction has blown the smoke from Indonesia to here.  The farmers are burning their old harvests to create natural fertilizer in order to do new planting.  This haze is affecting fashionably yours.  Last Thursday and Friday, the PSI was above 100.  I was breathless and coughing like mad as I walked along Orchard Road last Friday evening on my way home from work.  I need oxygen tank *LOL*

As a result I fell ill with a very red tonsils from the coughing and nose was blocked.  Seen my company doctor on Monday but the medicines are cheapo and doesn't seem to work.  I did myself a favour today by paying my own money to consult my own family doctor and prescribed me with antibiotics and cough mixtures.  So far, I felt much better after taking 3 antibiotics.  My company doctor only said my tonsils are red but never give me anything for it.  Just gave me lozenges, panadol and cough tablets.  Some other ex company doctor told me they are not allowed to go beyond a certain budget.  They wanted to give you better medicines but are constraint....sigh.....no wonder these ex company doctors told me they opted out of the system once the contract ended. 

No wonder when my colleagues and I fell ill, we don't seem to get well so fast, always must go back a few times.  I would rather spend abit more for good medicines coupled with good rest to recover speedily.  Will drink more h20 and rest well to have speedy recovery :)

Haze at Orchard Road when PSI was above 100

So hazy
Did you notice the Christmas deco are up
(work-in-progress though) along Orchard Road?

Now the PSI is about 20. I hope it stays this way or go down further.  I love my clean air and it aids my recovery.
