HELLO EVERYONE! HAPPY NATIONAL DAY! The boy and I celebrated our 3rd anniversary last weekend at … SENTOSA! A while back, I signed up for Sentosa’s new game show called “RUN LIKE MAD” with Wee Teck, CY and Jasper and we won! So we were awarded with 2 complimentary staycation rooms at W Hotel and some dining vouchers! Thank you Sentosa for this fun game, you guys can watch the video here. Wee Teck has kindly gave me half the price, thank you very very much! Since it’s our 3rd anniversary, I decided to book a staycation at W Hotel to celebrate!

This is the view from our hotel room. You can take a walk along Quayside Isle and explore the dining choices there. Or stay in the hotel and enjoy your meal at SKIRT.

It was our first time in the aquarium and heng we went on Friday so it was not too crowded. We saw many many different kinds of fishes, jellyfish and a huge octopus… errr it was kind of scary and I don’t think I dare to eat octopus anymore.

Then we went to Tiger Sky Tower and LUGE! I think this is probably the activity I enjoyed most because I am scared of heights, I am scared of water…. HAIZ, WHY I SO TIMID T_T

We were already hungry by then. So dinner was at Coastes. It’s not my first time at Coastes and I really enjoyed it. The previous time I had egg benedict and this time we had…

Chilli crab dip with baguette ($15) iss very flavourful. Each spoonful has very generous amount of crab meat and it is sweet and not too spicy.

Seafood platter ($42, suitable for 2) which has chilled crayfish, marinated mussels, chilli clams, fish stew, grilled tiger prawns, deep fried scallops and calamari. Yes we got a variety, but one annoying thing is flies love it too. We have to either eat faster, or keep fanning the flies away. 🙁

BbQ pork ribs (half slab $15, full $26) is served with potato wedges and salad. Succulent, smoky pork ribs are tender and finger-licking good.

Aglio Olio ($22) is cooked with tiger prawns in garlic, white wine, extra virgin olive oil, tomatoes and basil.

After dinner, we caught Song of the Sea which is a multimedia show located at Siloso Beach. There are lots of dramatic effects such as water jets, flame bursts and lasers. It costs $15 per person. Unfortunately, it started raining when the show began. So we were practically watching it in the rain lah, so water jets had no effect on us. Haha!

We took a bus back to our hotel after that because I wanted to catch the last episode of The Dream Makers 《志在四方》 that night. And since W hotel has blu-ray player, we brought Forrest Gump bluray and watch it in our comfortable bed!

We usually don’t wake up for hotel breakfast but we heard so much good review about the buffet breakfast at The Kitchen Table so we made an extra effort to wake up early just to give it a try. The concept is an interactive setting of walking through live cooking stations and tastings, and a whimsical restaurant layout that has giant tables overturned and hung from the ceiling walls.

Everything from Chinese dim sum and to cold cuts, bread, noodles, sausages, egg benedict, nasi lemak etc.

To top it all off, their beverages corner is pretty interesting.

After a heavy breakfast, we took a walk along the swimming pool and took some photos. Sorry for bombarding you with our faces for this post.

The boy gave me very cute Cony & Brown figurine which I love very much, while I bought him Lego! That concludes our 3rd year anniversary. Thank you for everything, baby. Since you came along, my life has changed. I have been the luckiest person in the world to be blessed with your love. Cheers to many more years to come! <3
