Posted on September 23, 2022 by bookjunkie

B pointed out that the orchids at the Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands are real and if they are replaced regularly must be super expensive. Me and my cousin D love coming to TWG. The outlet here looks nice but … Continue reading →

Because most malls in Singapore are so cramped with narrow walkways I appreciate something like this at the ‘atas’ (Singlish for high class/ snooty) mall The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands.

Angelina at Marina Bay Sands: Another Too Expensive Place

Posted on September 22, 2022 by bookjunkie

Staff were struggling here. We didn’t order the tiny cakes that cost at least $17 before tax and opted for a large basket of piping hot French fries instead. Pretty good but you could get much more for $13.50 at … Continue reading →

#6. Simple Joys: Beautiful Window Displays

Posted on September 22, 2022 by bookjunkie

Haven’t been to the Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands for a while and was drawn to this window display in particular. New sights are always refreshing. And I love the bubblegum shade of pink.

TWG at Marina Bay Sands

Posted on December 30, 2014 by bookjunkie

Service still kinda sucks, but I can’t resist the pretty crockery and fragrant teas. The scones are some of the best I’ve had especially with the clotted cream and refreshing tea jam. The sandwiches are forgettable and pathetic for the … Continue reading →

SkyPark: To the Top of Marina Bay Sands Again

Posted on December 30, 2014 by bookjunkie

At first it was drizzling so we hesitated about whether to get tickets to the Skypark. In the end I’m glad we did as the cloudy made the glare of the sun more bearable and I didn’t end up sweating … Continue reading →

Marina Bay Sands: Skating Rink Decorated for Christmas

Posted on December 24, 2014 by bookjunkie

The best view of the skating rink would be from the top. The artificial ice has been covered so you can walk on the skating rink and many people were taking photos. There was live music too.

Posted on October 7, 2012 by bookjunkie

Posted on October 3, 2012 by bookjunkie

I’m not that fond of Coffee Bean being now spoilt for choice with all the new indie coffee places. But I’ve always wanted to sit by the fountain at Marina Bay Sands. It’s always impossible to get a seat, but … Continue reading →

Interesting New Store at Marina Bay Sands

Posted on October 3, 2012 by bookjunkie

I thought it was a beauty store at first, but they are selling fruit vinegars and oils to flavour your food. I was attracted by the pretty jars. I’m thinking these would be good with bread and salad at home. … Continue reading →

The Spaciousness at Marina Bay Sands

Posted on June 19, 2012 by bookjunkie

Just some photos I took during a recent visit to Marina Bay Sands. I love the big pathways and how clean this mall is. Makes me feel relaxed unlike the other squeezy malls elsewhere.

I’m a Sucker for TWG at Marina Bay Sands

Posted on June 19, 2012 by bookjunkie

I still like the ambience and tea here even though the price cannot be justified especially for the tiny crepe and crappy cake. The best dessert item I’ve had here was the creme brulee tart and the best savoury item … Continue reading →
