Gardens by the Bay: My Third Visit to the Flower Dome
I would not recommend buying the annual pass even though I’ve been here three times already. This time we got an additional discount using the Passion Card. It’s nice going with people who haven’t been there before. Just to see … Continue reading

A Second Visit to Verandah for Lunch
I think the wait staff standing around is a waste. They should do table service and then I would like the place a whole lot more. Considering what they charge for upscale, but not as good hawker food, they really … Continue reading

My Second Visit to Gardens by the Bay
The place felt even more artificial the second time around and I guess I kept comparing it to the Botanic Gardens and wishing that it could have been a another Botanic Gardens with free entry. This didn’t quite feel like … Continue reading

Gardens by the Bay: Verandah
Ok I think this will be my last post about the new attraction (unless I visit again), and this time about our lunch at Verandah. The tastefully decorated bistro serves Asian cuisine and is very near the entrance of Gardens. … Continue reading

Gardens by the Bay: The Flower Dome (Part 1)
You’ll be greeted by screens displaying pictures of flowers as you enter The Flower Dome. Guess things like this give the place more of a Theme Park than a garden feel. Upon first view we were impressed. Found the Dome … Continue reading

Gardens by the Bay: Cosy Nooks with Nice Views
Before we got the tickets for the Domes, we walked around and we were impressed by the cool benches. Those I admit were beautiful. Shaped like crocodiles or just slabs of wood. I was real happy to find that I … Continue reading

Gardens by the Bay: OCBC Skyway (Avoid if You’re Scared of Heights)

What I Thought About Gardens by the Bay
I had high expectations for the much lauded Gardens by the Bay, as it’s under the National Park Boards and they do such a wonderful job with the Botanic Gardens. It’s also currently the hottest place after Singapore’s first Dean … Continue reading
