My last trip to Singapore were around last year July, to be exact, utilizing long weekend in Indonesia around those period. I went to Singapore with 2 of my friends, and we decide to do some fun in Singapore, even though there was not as much entertainment that we can choose from.
We went for a really "typical" Singapore trip: Garden by the Bay, Universal Studio Singapore, Orchard Road shopping (walking.. to be exact), Art and Science Museum, and food hunting.
There were some highlight that I REFUSE to forget; making this one of the best trip I've ever felt for such a long time:
Had our first lunch in Boon Tong Kee and I've had THE MOST MINDBLOWING ever fried tofu in all my life. Try to recreate them at home but fail miserably. The rest of the meal? Standard. I'd go crazy for the tofu all over again.
After lunch, we went to the most touristy spot in Singapore imo, Gardens by the Bay. We went to Both of the main attraction of course!! Flower Dome and Cloud Forest. What a best way for tourists to enjoy Singapore to the maximum.
Despite the sarcasm, great timing made us swooning over all the beautiful tulips in season, though.
My friend's minion polacamera match well with the yellow tulips.
Not to forget to take wefie as well.
Satisfied with the tulips, on the other weird side of the flower dome where the tulips are, however, were lots of weird shaped succulents all over the place...
and with some of them weird shape, we refuse to comment furthermore. "Just enjoy the nature", they said.
Finish with the Flower Dome, we continue straight to the Cloud Forest side. Not finding anything interesting, we've decided to do some weird pose photo shoot all over the place.
Flower Dome still is the winner from this whole garden-y setting.
Aaand that's it for the first day.
For the second day, we went to the USS, and take our typical photos of USS too! by forcing other Indonesian group to take pictures of us (in exchange for them as well of course! We're not that bad..)
Real holiday proof? Checked!
One of the highlight of my USS trip this time was that I able to conquer BOTH of the roller coaster after chickening out on one of them several years ago. S-A-T-I-S-F-I-E-D! Not that scary though, come to think of it.
The rest of our USS trip were fun, but just okay. One of my friend were very satisfied with the amount of minion statue that she can take picture of.
We had our scrumptious dinner afterwards at Tonkotsu King Ramen, which was very famous in the area and we queued for around 1 hour if I'm not wrong.
It was good, confusing whether it was really good or we're just ravenous. Haha. Either way this meal satisfied our longing for a warm good food after one long day playing in USS. And that's it for the second day!
On our third day, we finally found the winner lunch of them all: Swee Choon Tim Sum.
Appearance-wise were not as good as we've expected, but taste-wise?? MAJESTIC. Tim Ho Wan go away la. This one's very, very nice with reasonable prices for their whole menu. Me and my friends agreed that this place were the winner of all the meal we've ever taste in Singapore this time. Can we go back again, please??
Super satisfied with our meals, we continued our final trip to Art and Science Museum before our flight back. It was...just ok.
Nice, but it was everything you've ever seen on the internet, so it was a little bit underwhelming. Some installation were quite mesmerizing though.
Will we go again? Don't think so.
The downgrading mood from Art Science Museum was well closed by my repeat share of Oyster Omelette that I ate in the airport.
Must have one in Singapore.
And that's the wrap for whole of my Singapore trip last year!!
It was such a long trip ago (blame my lack of updates, again), however I feel that this one was the most exciting and fulfilling one as well until now, since this was my first trip WITH my friends after I've gotten used to do solo trip to every other country that I've been to. Solo trip has its own perks though, but having a trip together with the right people and the right amount of people (this! is important) will make those trip far much more unforgettable as well. And I'm very, very grateful for this one.
So, when will be our next trip again??
