With UOB discount, I pay $45 per person for the international buffet dinner cum durian fest.
The food items at international buffet section (indoor, air-con) were not tasty at all. There were a lot of durian related items, eg. durian ice cream, durian cakes and such.
Outdoor, non-aircon, was the place where you have lots of durians waiting for you. The waiters will open the durians for you, serve you water, plates and towels to wipe hands.
Generally, the service there was great. By compliments of Cafe Vic, there was a cake to celebrate the event.

Don't know why, the staff there seems to be of those lowly paid kind (look at the way they groom themselves and you would understand). But otherwise, the staff they are quite understanding and polite (they don't come and disturb you now and then).
The serving size for the chicken was rather small, though it is tasty. The ice cream is typically "Kings ice cream" type. The soup was just nice, be it serving size or taste.
Meanwhile, I would recommend this place, only if you are on a budget when dining with girlfriend, yet want a decent restaurant setting.

The tickets to Europe are not cheap, with KLM offering the cheapest most of the time. KLM is a 3-star airline while Lufthansa is a 4-star airline. However, in my opinion, Lufthansa is as good as a 3-star one, despite the fact that I pay more to travel with Lufthansa than with KLM.
The Asian food they serve are really not for human consumption. It is not fresh and not appealing to the eyes. I asked for chocolate milk on my flight, and was disappointed that they do not serve chocolate milk (even to kids). Their snack choice is not standardized. I got instant noodles on my flight to Europe, but nothing on my way back.
The seats were cramp, with no leg rest area. No socks were provided, unlike with SQ.
On my journey to Europe, I was upset that they only had overhead shared entertainment instead of personal ones! Imagine I have to stayed up and wait for them to show my favourite shows! Luckily, thanks to star alliance with SQ, they offer personal entertainment on the way back. But no games unlike for SQ.
If you need to travel to Europe, please choose SQ, unless you are willing to put up with non-tasty food and lousy resting environment.

I heard of this place which sells fermented bean curd and was always looking for a chance to go. Finally, I went with a Taiwan friend (alright, I didn’t figured right from the start that this was HK style fermented bean curd). When we reached, we were a little shocked to find a fairly run down shop without any customer (to be fair, we were there at around 6pm-7pm).
From the menu, we order the standard fermented beancurd, a plate of fried intestines, 2 bowls of different soup noodles. Initially, we couldn’t smell much of the fermented beancurd, until they start to fry it. And when it came, the smell was not really enough, the vinegar-seasoned cabbage was quite little and placed with the chilli instead of with the beancurd. Overall, it doesn’t justify the walk to it. At least not when I can find the Taiwan style fermented beancurd right in Lau Pa Sat.
But the fried intestines was special to me and for that alone, I would go back. My Taiwan friend find the soup noodles nice, with hers having braised chicken wing and fried fishballs etc in it, while mine has duck meat in it.

We went on a Fri night (when most others go out clubbing and our family-oriented team just want to have a little get-together), and the place was nearly full (luckily we had called earlier to reserve). The price was fair, with a main dish, soup, drink, and 2hrs of play adding to $14.90. We order a few types of main dish, with the fish & chips looking most appetizing (as it was freshly deep-fried) while the sambal chicken chop and mushroom gravy chicken chop looking similar except for the sambal/gravy on top. Their drinks, which included Ribena and some other non-carbonated drinks, are filled in screw-on-types clear-glass mugs.
The seats are the long type, so it allow us to squeeze together when we get to an exciting game like Taboo. The penguin water dispenser was cute, although it looks “dangerous” to have such tall thingy (filled with water) on the table when we were playing games like Heart Attack or its similar games. Because the ceiling was low (think because the 2nd floor of shophouses tend to be low ceiling, while the 1st floor tend to be high ceiling), the place was quite deafening when every table started playing exciting games.
The games they have does not seems a lot, but since our package was more meal-focused and we didn’t extend the games hours, we had enough fun over the 2 hours. At the end, the staff asked us to take a photo, for them to pin on the walls behind the seats (all the 4 walls have photos pins up, and I suspect they will probably have to pin ours nearer to the floor).
