*doesn't understand why no one has reviewed Sentosa*
I love the beaches at Sentosa, haha, mostly because there're no other beaches for me to love in SIngapore.
Great place to laze around for the afternoon. The not-so-recently-but-still-pretty-"recently" added restaurants and cafes are also good for after-tanning yakking and more lazing around. :)
I don't really go as often as I'd like cos of the stupid $3 entrance fee, but I guess they have to find some way to make up for their ginormous loss while building the monorail.
No comments about the other many tourist traps, I mean attractions at Sentosa. They don't float my boat.
Went once with 5 friends of mine, and it was a hoot! Although we only managed to play about 2 or 3 games, it was a pretty darn fun experience!
There're not many places in Singapore that allow you to have as much childish fun as board game cafes. :D
'Who's the Boss?' was the most memorable of all the games. Do try it if you drop by!
Anyway, not all is fine and dandy with Settler's... if you notice, it's a board game cafe. The "board games" part is totally fine and fun, but the "cafe" part.... kinda non-existent, if you ask me.
Unless you count half-cooked spaghetti as food, that is. They can do way way way better in the food department. Heck, my 8 year old cousin can probably do better than them, haha.
So my advice? Just go there with a full tummy and play to your heart's content!
I went to get my brows done some time ago. It was a busy evening for them, and I had to wait for about 30 minutes before it was my turn.
I didn't make an appointment though, so I can't really complain about that, although I do wish they would tell me that it was 30 minutes, instead of assuring me that I would only be waiting for 15 minutes.
So I did my brows, and it was good. I've done my brows at many, many places, and this place was one of the better ones.
Some places just want to get it over and done with, and do a really slipshod job. But the lady that was doing my brows was really meticulous and friendly, and she was explaining to me how one of my brows is just a little higher than the other.
Action Hair Salon is located at the top floor of Paragon, beside Hollywood Secrets.
I first visited this salon way back in 2000, when I was 15. The owner, Vin, is a really nice guy who bothers to make you feel at home.
He notices who doesn't have a drink yet, and hurries whoever is responsible. (P/S: They give you a drinks menu to choose a drink from when you just come in. Shiok.)
Service is really unparalleled, at least in my opinion. :) On your first visit, you get a form to fill up with your particulars, and preferences and stuff.
Unfortunately, their prices have been steadily increasing... if I'm not wrong, a haircut should cost about $60-$70 now.
I would still go there for the more elaborate things like perms, rebonds, etc, though, because I trust their skill.
I don't like to be worrying about newbie/amateur hairstylists charring my hair or making it look horrible when I'm doing something long-term.
I drove there today at around 6:40 pm, and after going round and round the carpark for more than 20 minutes, I was forced to go somewhere else to eat.
Other than this, I love the variety of food in there, and the layout of the shopping center.
Hope they improve the parking situation soon!

I'd def go back again if I'm around the area! :)
