I love to shop around Bugis Junction, be it the Street Market that houses these small shops that carries the latest most in fashion and accessories or Bugis Junction itself the houses BHG as well as many other retail outlets such as Character Design comfortably cooled with a good air-conditioning and plenty of escalators...
This shop is situated on level 3 right in front of the escalator near to the SISTIC/ Information retail counter and it is such an attractive shop, anybody who walked pass will take a second look at their merchandises. I would say they mainly sell really interesting stationary and table-top accessories. Some from famous cartoon or anime characters, jap or the good old Mickey Mouse Family line and made in japan stationary which I find intriguing.
The quality of these made in japan stationary is really good and very functional. I actually picked and chose a few and the one that I would highlight is a simple pen that contains 2 different coloured pens and a pencil (3 in 1). The way to change the function of the pen is to click and release while you rotate the pen. Using gravitation to lock your desired colour of the pen in place. Very interesting right. Upon payment, the lady actually helped me check my merchandises and I could try the pens I bought just to make sure everything works well.
The shop is extremely colourful and if you are looking for a special present for that special someone... You might consider shopping here... Mainly for youths and young adults, however you never know you might find something really intriguing... Oh Well.. I did! and I will go back for more stuffs.. really an interesting store, however the merchandises are really of a good variety, so don't forget to take your time to browse :)
If you enjoy exquisite japanese food, you will enjoy dining here. Situated next to the swimming pool at the Jurong Country Club is the newly established Japanese Restaurant FUKUYA that served a good range of traditional and carefully designed Japanese Stir-Fries, Super fresh Sashimi and interesting sushi.
I love the large window looking out to the pool side. Love the natural sunlight and vastness of the place. The overall theme of the restaurant is one that is simple, comfortable and casual. They do have plenty of tables for small group meet-ups as well as exclusive VIP rooms with wooden sliding doors (how charismatic) for larger groups of 8 or 10 or for a private dining experience. The counter seats are actually mine favourite location. You can interact with the chef at the same time watch how he prepares the food. Its like watching tv and having your dinner but with more fun and interaction.
The food I must say is really a class of its own. The sashimi glimming with freshness; I could taste the sweetness of the raw fish though there were so many types, I couldn't recognize which is which but they tasted sweet, fresh and melts in my mouth... Every bite gets me floating to heaven, perhaps thats why I've been eating so slowly, which is usually not mine style. The oysters in a cup is fantastic and refreshing. I could really taste the ocean perhaps because its very fresh.
The stirred fry beef with crispy garlic and vegatbles is yummy as well. Seasoned with a good array of compatible Japanese dressings, the beef is tender, juicy and full of flavor. I'm not quite a beef person but this beef makes me think otherwise.. Love the crispy garlic and juicy beans and beansprout... Great combination and an excellent balance in taste and chew factor.
The radish in MISO Dressing is what I deemed as an exceedingly appalling dish. This cute round thing is so thick yet so tender and the tantalizing miso sauce wakes this usually tasteless radish up with a BANG! Its a little sweet and salty and the radish served this way is soft and refreshing. Its a great balance in taste and bring out a surprise.. A very interesting dish that I would recommend to try. Its exquisite and you wouldn't be able to find it anywhere else i think.
Theres this BIG HOO HAA about the ever so delicious Mentaiko sauce and we have the pleasure to try it baked with cod, scallop and prawn with cheese. They are nice but i would prefer the seafood to be raw because the ingredients they use are extremely fresh and of good quality. The Cod is soft and creamy, scallop is juicy and packs a good chew, prawn with cheese is a little extraordinary. All is yummy and mentaiko sauce aromatic with just the right taste.
Don't get me started on the sushi. They are exquisite. SUPER FRESH with just the right amount of rice and I must highlight the baby octopus... which i never had it served this way before... You could actually see the tentacles of this baby squid which is not marinated with excess sugar and salt but lightly grilled. Its Out of the World yummy, crackling with juice on the soft and chewy sushi rice and I must say Very HEALTHY.
I had such a good meal here I was eager to go back the very next day. The food is exceedingly fresh and quality of the ingredients is so good you could actually taste them. Fresh, sweet, succulent and juicy. The portion is really good and worth the pricetag. I must say its premium yet worth your every cent. The chef put in a good effort in making every platter beautiful and themed to match the food served... Every small detail has been taken care of and I appreciate the effort in making sure my meal is one that near to perfection.
Why perfection you will ask... First the aroma is tantalizing while the friendly staff placed the beautiful platter of your dish in front of you, they instinctively provide short and sweet information on your dish and making sure you are satisfied they leave you to enjoy the alluring view of whats on your platter. The food tasted fresh and balanced with a surprise on every dish. As you make payment, you start to appreciate the fact that every cent is so well-spent and who you would like to bring here when you planned your next visit. Simply Perfect.
This is one of my favorite coffee bean and tea leaf outlets. Opened 24 hours on certain nights or must i say most nights, this is the place where me and my pals hang out on sleepless nights.
Its not a small place. With large glass windows that allows a good view of the bustling crowd outside and lots of seats to accommodate lots of people. However, this outlet is almost always crowded even in the wee hours of the night...
I must say service is not much and very much only while you order. I was once served my sandwich half an hour after I ordered and reason given was that a new staff being not orientated. I guess they have forgotten my order. Well, it happens and the staff was apologetic about it, as such, I let it go...
Cleanliness at this outlet is also not optimal and I would suggest a location for customers to return their used cutlery, otherwise, the previous customer messed up the table, and there are insufficient staff to clear the tables and the next oncoming customer got to do so. Because of the lack of used cutlery locations, the oncoming customer will dump the used cutleries onto the other unused tables. So you will find piles of used cutlery on some tables. Its unsightly and dangerous...
The location is great and I love the beverage and the food offered, however there is much room to improve in terms of service and cleanliness. :)
The Service at this outlet is pretty good but the waiting time and area is unearthly. I was there to recontract and service is good however I think they should put up an enlarged poster of all their phone recontract prices somewhere for a better reference.
The shop is pretty badly designed with narrow areas which made walking around a hassle and squeezy. The way the queue is designed to the registration counter is really bad as one had to snake through here and there to get into the queue. It can be quite frustrating where you have to cut into the queue to get to the back of the queue. Then while you are doing that you could see the angry faces of the uncles and aunties who must be thinking "Queue cutters ought to be slapped!"
So after about 20 mins in the queue I got my ticket to queue for the processing counter with about 4 person before me and then nightmare begins. The waiting time cannot be gauged and the lounge have fewer then seats for 8 person. With one sole butt occupying the whole bench, we are down to 6 seats and there are like 30-50 people in that one shop. So i waited.. about more than an hour to get to my turn. The process was fast.. I think I got everything done in about 10 mins and I'm off to make payment. I don't understand why the waiting time was more than an hour when there are like 6-8 counters open... Hm..................
It was a pleasant experience however waiting time is too long and the waiting lounge is stuffy, not enough seats and space and the design of the entire shop is crap. Could have just make more walking space and eliminate all the blockages here and there..... Bad use of space, its a pity.... though your service staffs are pretty knowledgeable, efficient and helpful.
I'm using Max On Line at home and I must say I have no problems since day one, though during peak hours the line tend to be a little slower, but since many of the other users have switched to Fibre, mine cable seemed to be pretty alright.
My whole family seemed to have switched to Max On Line mainly because of the Cable TV (SCV) and the bundled discounts with the mobile phone line. We have been enjoying the bundled discounts complete with a free home phone line which I find is not so good in terms of clarity as compared to the good old and reliable Singtel land lines.
When I faced any problems, the 24 hours hotline provides me with good and timely advises. Courteous and helpful I must say of the tele-service staff and we usually could more or less solve all problems via the tele-conversation. Theres only once the technician had to come and they react to me within 24 hours which is extremely efficient I must say.
So i strongly recommend StarHub services and products to all my friends and family as I am a very satisfied user. Though I must say, hiccups do occur sometimes due to random reasons but so far they have delivered a good job and product to me. Occasionally they do throw in some good packages or upgrades on the Cable TV programs as well as being in the Hub Club ( TV, Internet, Mobile User), I get to recontract my mobile plan every 12 months. :)
I love to get on SMRT Buses.. With the upgraded new Jap Designed Buses that are more eco-friendly, nicer seats, better space design and single sitters still available. Their routes are always LONG... No fiddle or shutter service for this one. I find their service extremely close to heart... The bus drivers are more casual, relaxed and graceful. I love their routes, they seem to go to most places where they used not to have MRT Train Stations and they get you there much faster then regular train rides. Bus Drivers usually skillful and fast drivers in which i find the rides very enjoyable.
Totally love the double cabin buses.. I find them more fun to seat in then double deckers and not to mention more elderly and handicap friendly too. Also love the automated text display on the top which gives timely information on the next stop, time and when the bus is arriving as well as the vocal ques on doors closing. Overall, I find SMRT or TIBS buses having better routes, bus drivers with better skill and attitudes and makes my travelling more pleasant.
Since its Service Month, I'll write a review on this UOB outlet @ Jurong Point. This outlet is pretty big i must say with a large banking hall that could accommodate at least 50 standing persons at one go.
At the entrance, you will be greeted by 4 automated tellers and a reception that made the entire branch looked like its only got the front part. The staff were helpful and you could get efficient information at this reception. If you are accessing normal banking administration like account or checking items, you could just walk in and join the queue at the main banking hall.
I was once there 5 mins early to the bank opening its doors and there is already a queue forming at the entrance. Upon entry, I still had to queue for 30 mins before its mine turn though there are only about 5 to 6 customers before me and there are 2 counters opened. One was served by a tired inefficient banking staff and another had too many questions to ask her superior. So while i waited, frustration started to build and when its mine turn.... It just took 2 mins... and I'm all done.... so i guess banking staff needs to warm up as well...
The entire branch is kept clean and facilities well maintained.. I was watching the cleaning lady doing her usual rounds and I must say she did an excellent job. Best of all, she could do her work without hindering the waiting customers be it if they are in her way or sitting on the couch she is cleaning. Excellent job i must say.
This is a shop that I've always walked past but have never been into, however this weekend I did went in and bought a few GREAT BARGAINS....
Its having sale.. 50% off regular items, though I think their casual wear is over-priced. Material is thin though comfy and designs regular, but you can really find some interesting things.
Though i'm not such a big fan of australian beach style fashion, I managed to buy a few good pieces to match with the warm weather. I've got a black single entirely fixed with sequins that Could Rock any Night Event. A white thin hang loose top with glamouring shoulders and a dark blue short loose t-shirt top with sparky words... Though the sizes are pretty hard to find (Messy sale section), I've managed to find a few sizes that are not XS or XL. These 3 glimmering tops for just $30 for 3... on top of that you get 5% discount if you are a member or holds a citibank credit card.
Checkered Shirts are going for $19.90 and long sleeves top $19.90 as well. Checked out their t-shirt and their designs are pretty interesting. I'm sure to come back for more.
Oh yar.. the guys section merchandises caught my attention too. Love the belts, the baseball caps and the capris which are made we such cooling and non-cris materials that is just right for our 365 sunny days.
Service is okay, staff is helpful though sometimes i feel that they talk to much. Check out the changing rooms.... somehow i couldn't lock the door but the good thing is you can try anything on and its spacious. The thing that awed me is that even for sales items you could still exchange them for 7 days.. Love it...
Will pop by to check out interesting stuffs but only when theres a sale.
Everybody must have been to SUNTEC Convention Centre for any kind of event. Be it the IT FAIR, Travel Fair or trade exhibitions. The Suntec Convention Centre used to be Singapore's best location for exhibitions, conference and other big scale events, though now the entire SUNTEC City is under renovation, I hope to see some improvements in many areas.
There are only 2 sets of lifts that goes up to the exhibition halls.. One on the extreme left and another on the extreme right and there are only 2 lifts per set that goes from the basement carparks all the way up to the exhibition halls. It is insufficient and not really convenient as during exhibition build-up days or IT-Fairs where there are people buying huge stuffs like TVs or LARGE Printers Etc... It is pretty inconvenient, I mean you don't expect them to take an escalator when the escalators are sooo high.. Its scary I must say. So MORE LIFTS PLEASE
The toilets at the convention level are also very sparse.. There is 2 locations per level and each location there is only about 2 to 3 cubicles. Though you can also use the toilets in the exhibition hall itself which is a long walk and difficult to locate, If you intend to house more patrons and participants, the basic needs of toilets has got to be easily reachable. The cleanliness and quality of the toilets are also lacking.
The loading / unloading bays are great i must say, we had a very good experience and smooth delivery on build up and tear down days
Food is pretty difficult to get except for restaurants, though there is something like food court downstairs, it is always crowded during lunch time or If i would say all the time especially on exhibition days. Though the choices are many, but we hardly have time to get down to queue up and get something to eat... The inhouse food at the exhibition hall cafeteria is not yummy and exceptionally expensive. If the food court downstairs could provide lunch deliveries into the exhibition hall would be great, I mean we could make advance orders as we could be so busy that we wouldn't have time to make the lunch trips downstairs.
Location is great with 2 MRTs covering the both ends of the entire SUNTEC City and shopping is easy. It is still a really good exhibition and convention centre by my standards though improvements is a must.
In my 4 years of study in NTU... This is the auditorium that I have only been to once on my very last graduating day. Its a grand theater, professionally decked with good sounds system and beautiful architecture. It feels glam, with the medium haired carpets and the matching colored plush chairs to the large foyer spaces and the quiet air-conditioning. I can recall extremely glee looking parents, proud siblings, well dressed friends and graduates decked in a robe of blue holding on to their similarly dressed graduations bears and certificates. It has many steps and an extremely high ceiling, while the excited graduates are chatting away, the noise is still quite contained. Lightings and projections though not as fantastic as some concert locations i've been to is sufficient for normal presentations and conference events.
This location has been used every year for countless graduations and student concerts as well as symposiums and presentations. The outdoor glass facade is beautiful and brings in very minimal sunlight and heat thanks to the special coating on the glass. Its a really nice place to hold your events if you are looking for a space with the capacity of a little bit over 1500. Would love to go back there again to relive the moment of graduation
