My family prefers KFC chicken to pizza or burgers. So, for CNY, we tend to eat KFC chicken when the foodcourts / kopitiam are not available. But we hate calling KFC. The year before, we were told to wait 1-2 hrs and we end up not ordering and just go out to see what stalls are available at our nearby kopitiam. This year, we called at 5 and was told that they cannot take our orders and say can call us back if we want to wait. But when they call back twice across 2 hours, we are still told that they cannot take our order.
We should have pop over to a branch further away and order take away, probably we would have gotten the chicken earlier.

So we ended getting a FRIENDS offer – Salmon, and a kids’ meatballs and 2 kids’ spaghetti. Plus the 2 free drinks (refillable!), that finish our late lunch.
Yes, the place is packed. But luckily we went for late lunch and just 2 of us, it was still fairly easy to get seats.
I like their trolley system for food. You could place up to 3 trays and just wheel the food around to the cashier and to your seats. It is supposed to be a self-return service for your finished food, but I guess Sporeans will need quite a long time before getting used to such system.

But the cold storage at basement is still my favourite. It allows credit card payments (most of the other cold storage only accepts the HSBC Choice card) and it has my favourite kimchi and japanese foodstuff.
I like the Korean food store outside Cold Storage. They have the Korean nian gao. I tried once at a restaurant and it simply had no taste. This one was good, at least the spicyness is acceptable to me.
The basement atrium is another good one. They have different themes every now and then, like the mooncake festival and sometimes I get to find toys and cushion I like.

The CN Tower, was meant to be a huge antennal for the TV network. It has a restaurant at the top and also a viewing gallery with a glass for you to step on and see yourself “in the air”.
Maybe because I went up in Sept when there is no rain or snow, the night view is such that I could see the building beneath, with all the lights. Toronto is really a city with a lot of tall buildings and bright office lights (not those HK type of coloured lights).
It is best to go up CN Tower in the early evening, when you can see the daylight and the night view. The CN Tower is besides their baseball stadium, so it is often crowded when there is a game going on and people go to the CN Tower after watching the game.
I also attached a photo of the tram in Toronto, something which you no longer see in Singapore.

In September, I get to go down to take the boat (Maid of the Mist) and feel the waterfall for myself . Of course not go under the waterfall, else the boat will capsize. The boat just stop a short distance from the foot of the waterfall and you can feel the wind/power of the water falling down. This power will actually turn into mist and falls as rain nearby.
In April, the boat does not operate (for the whole winter). But the view of the waterfall is totally different. In the cold (I have to put on wintercoat and my legs were cold still beneath the jeans) the waterfall look just like a delicious Tiramisu ice-cream.
See the pictures and if you are impressed, I am sure you will be amazed when you are there physically.
I was told that if you go to the Niagara Falls from the American side, your view is not as good, but you get to go down the wooden stairs (not during winter of course) to feel the waterfall.
