Spuds & Aprons (The Garden) - Faber Peak Singapore

ABBEY: We went for our pre-Hearts' day date here at Spuds and Aprons (Faber Peak). It was a lunch date. I was craving for laksa and good thing the menu is composed of local dishes. My eyes gleamed at the site of laksa though it is the dry-type, it is full of flavor; the spiciness and creaminess of coconut milk. 

Then I indulged in bite-sized samosas and spring rolls. I also had a couple plates of Hainanese chicken rice; each with different sauce like chili, soy sauce and ginger. 

They also have prawns, vegetables and steamed fish (the texture is almost like a pulp). The ambiance is great. It is on a high place with trees and good view of Sentosa and Harbourfront. 

Don't forget to sound the Bell of Happiness. Lunch buffet is from noon to 2:30PM.


Spuds & Aprons' Menu is inside of this video. 


WILL: So it is "Love" Month and everybody is going crazy what to do or what to give to their love ones. I am planning 2 dates for me and Abbey and Spuds and Apron is one of them. 

This nicely located restaurant is on the top of Mt. Faber. You can reach this by either using cable car, taxi (around $6 from VivoCity) or by foot (1.5 hours depend on your phase). 

It is a buffet lunch and I got it for a promotion of $14.00 each which includes a free entrance to Sentosa via Sentosa Express (usual is $29.90). 

They serves Local Singaporean Cuisine and I am looking forward for this since I booked it from 90 Days of Fun At Sentosa platform. 

There are only few choices but $14 is all worth it. There is shrimp which everybody (yes! Everybody except Abbey) is splurging of. I keep on coming back for the fish which is perfect for rice. Ohhh! I got their hot mung bean dessert! 

The view is perfectly romantic and no doubt this is one of the best rented place for weddings and other special events. 

Spuds and Apron..you rock! Thanks for accommodating our date without breaking my budget! Haha!

Mt. Faber Singapore

ABBEY: I've seen the ads of Jewel Box and dreaming of having a dinner there with Wilma. I know that plan will materialize soon kasi naakyat ko na yung Mount Faber. You can get to Alexandra arch 6 stops after you ride bus #100 at Harbourfront Centre. Signs giving directions and distances are placed all throughout the trek. You will appreciate nature's beauty as you go. Tall trees, vines, twigs, and insects. Gitna pa lang ng trek, pawis na pawis na ako. Ibig sabihin marami nang fats ang naburn or unti unti na akong nadedehydrate ;)
Hindi lang isang design ang daanan. May metal, wood, cement din. When we reached the top, nakita ko na yung Jewel Box. Kaya lang Wilma advised me na sa susunod na lang kami kakain dun. Kaya nag-picture taking na lang kami sa isang cable car na display. After that we rode a bus pababa at kumain ng paborito kong chicken rice.









WILL: In times, it is better to explore different places on foot. Better to lay on the power of your feet. 
      We started hiking Mt. Faber on staircase near HortPark (Telok Blangah Road), ito ang makulay na tulay, Alexandra Arch. So we have 2 kms. to fill in and lot of sweat to produce. Excerise ito, nakalimutan ko lng dalan ng extra damit si Abbey (nang sermon tuloy si Chat).
      Breathing in the fresh air from the forest to where we stand at Forest Walk is such a gift, yun nga lang medyo jumpy ako for the reptiles. When we saw a wooden bridge. We awed. Shocks, it is so beautiful. The Hendreson Waves should not be missed by anyone. The architecture is so great, the view of full grown trees and ang nakakalula na taas nya. You can have a picnic here, a photo session or even a sightseeing lng. You'll enjoy it.
      After that ribs like bridge. Jewel Box is the next attraction, but we don't ate our dinner there, maybe next time. We continue to hike the peak of Mt. Faber. here, you can see the view of Singapore. It's a city but so green. 
      Tired. We decided to take the bus for our way to dinner. Aba 5 mins lng pala dapat andun na kami, kung dun kami sa route ng bus dumaan. But no regrets at all.
