We thought so hard for wat to eat at ION during peak hour, none of us have craving for anything so we "anyhow" decided on this Dynasty tho my fren already had it a few days ago. We saw a long queue (jus like everywhere else) & was given a handwritten queue number on a random white paper.... she told us to wait for 30min.

So we walked around at {Prologue} & turned out we missed the number cos... we're not "10" but "01"!!! Who will write queue no. as 01 =.= Anyway the service was pretty good if we forget abt this ridiculous queue no. thing.

Once we entered we're welcome by the tea master & it's definitely an appetizing sight. I was super full from the buffet lunch @ Basilico so I my other 2 hungry frens do all the ordering. The highlight is of course the rainbow xiao long bao, it never disappoint me! The skin was very thin but not easily broken, right amount of soup at an "eat-now" temperature. Anyway I feel that the best tasting one is.... original haha (maybe it's just me, like i only like to drink original Yakult, not the colourful ones)

Drunken chicken was good too, I've tried some awful one at one restaurant before (can't remember which one though) cooked with bad wine quality. Noodles was so-so to me, I prefer softer & bouncier noodle, but the soup's quite good.

A place worth going back again, wanna try their other stuffs when my stomach has more space! Just that I find the environment too dark & too "gold" for my liking

This is the 2nd time I'm here & first time for my other 2 girls. One has no idea what to expect, one wanted to come here for years & finally I booked it for her BD. But I know clearly, both would love this place!

It was a Sunday lunch so there's no promotion, the price is also more expensive than normal days as the spread is abit different (with... free flow of Foie Gras).

Ham & cheese are the standard must have for Italian buffet, we are SPOILED by the choices of cheese, I think we couldn't have tried all of them. The Seafood Soup was something u'll crave for a second bowl thought u're very full. Have you ever tried meatball made from Wagyu? Yummy Risotto was presented to us half way thru the meal. Free flow of thick Foie Gras on truffle-topped crunchy bread was started to be serve at about 2pm. My girl who's never ate foie gras before had 3 big pieces & I think her $70+ was already gained back, me & the other fren were not a big fan of it, instead we indulged in many pieces of Chilled Alaska Crab Leg!!!!! Just the thought of them makes me wanna go back tomorrow... We wanted to try every piece of dessert but we were really too full... I dun have to say much, u guys jus go & try them!!!! Lastly instead of ordering jus a coffee or tea, I ordered a double expresso to pour on their high quality rich coffe-flavoured ice-cream to make my own Affogato -> the best Affogato I've tried so far.

Service was great, everyone (except one lady tat seems abit fierce) are full of smile & never reject our requests tat may not be their job. I didn't mention it's my fren's BD while booking but only let the staff know in the middle of the meal & ask for a cake, he immediately said no problem & observantly presented a yummy & generous slice of cake at the right time, with lighted candle & a chocolate-drew Happy birthday.

When the cake was presented & we asked the BD girl for her wish, she said it's already came true -> a marvelous meal @ Basilico. (& top it up with "world peace" haha)

My dear fren had not been to RWS, so we decided to bring her there for a girls night out on her BD~ We didn't do much on the short night, but with great friendship that we had for 10 years, we are happy together as long as we have good food & cute stuffs~

We had no idea what is good to eat at tourists' attraction so I made a call for a resourceful help (like in who wants to be a millionaire). The veteran in food hunting recommended Ramen Play outside the Casino. We were immediately attracted by the Alice with rabbit face standing tall inside the restaurant. The reno & deco was already appetizing, atmosphere is very important for us~ Our source was right, the food was good!

1. Ramen soup was yummy without making us thirsty, love the egg, noodle was Q.
2. Can't remember the name of the side dishes but they are all good~
3. Price was reasonable, not a bargain but also not "cutting caitou".

The only irritating thing was that when we pay the bill there's a bunch of 10+ RJC students in front of us &.... they paid ONE BY ONE despite sitting on the same table! So we waited in the queue for 10 over bills to be done before it's our turn...

Months later I brought my mum to the 313 somerset outlet & she likes it too, as a mum who cook almost everyday, she commented that it doesn't feel like there's msg in the noodle~

It's an after-birthday-dinner chit-chat session, my fren recommended us to go Chocolate DeStenation near Marche as she's a manager of the chain. By the look of it we thought it's an expensive cafe and the 1-for-1 Hot Chocolate sign wasn't attractive enough.

To our pleasant surprise, it's even cheaper than starbucks but serves traditional Italian confectionery. The classic Hot Chocolate is only $5 & after 1-for-1 promo it's just $2.5!!! I always hate hot chocolate for it's too sweet for me, while some other places serves what tastes like made from instant powder packets. However this one @ DeSte makes me want a second cup! It has a thick melted chocolate layer on top, but the whole thing doesn't taste too sweet, u know the kind tat doesn't make you thirsty.

We ordered a truffle cheesecake too, it doesn't taste like our usual cheesecake but it's nice nevertheless.

Creme Brule Tea (Hot) was good, great for a chatting session. But the Affogato was unexpectedly disappointing. According to my fren who ordered it, the ice-cream was too sweet and doesn't taste blending with the espresso. I only looked at it but I feel that TCC one would taste better.

Quickly go grab the classic hot chocolate while promotion last! I already crave for it.

As we are not too sure if we'll really enjoy the world's smallest Universal Studio, we decided to grab the opportunity of S$5 after hour tickets on a Friday night to check it out first!

It was no special occasion, but we had a sweet & romantic night, just the 2 of us being our childish selves, taking silly pictures ignoring other ppl's staring. (In fact everyone else was also taking silly pics so it's ok )

At first we thought that theme park restaurants would be expensive and the food wouldn't be nice... but we were wrong! The restaurants are all reasonably priced, some cheaper than what you find in Orchard. Initially wanted to have a romantic dinner @ the beautiful grill house... but the menu shows only 3 choices of main couse -> half chicken, fish & chips, baked seafood rice. We felt like eating none. So head to the Louis' Pizza & Pasta that smells great~ We ordered Lagsania & Pizza meal, it's about $10 for a meal, not very big portion but enough for a normal girl.

We ended the day with the 10pm fireworks. What more can you ask for when you have a memorable night at such a cheap price? (Oh & we went there a few months back by FREE shuttle bus provided by RWS)
