Sofitel So Singapore's HI-SO Rooftop Pool Bar - Hi-So Ladies Night

ABBEY: After-office-hours activites can be helpful after a long day's work. Rooftop Bar at Sofitel offers cocktail food and drinks for the goers to unwind with their friends or colleagues. It is at the sixth storey; yes, not that high but the view is awesome as it was surrounded by tall buildings. They also offer mats for those groups who want to sit on the floor near the pool. Due to the tile color and reflection of light, the pool is a sea of gold.

As it is Ladies' night when we went there, first drink is free and the next would be at 10sgd instead of 29. For light snack, we got coldcuts(charcuterie platter) - $31 and potato chips (Truffle and Parmesan Fries - $14) which were fried to perfection; crispy, salted, and thin. 






WILL: Midweek and it's Ladies Night!!!

Thanks to Frannywany for her blogpost regarding to our featured hotel’s bar today.

A lot of people knew about free drinks in many bars at Clarke Quay but we all know how crowded it is every Wednesday. Do you just want a place where you can get relaxed, make some chats and get a free drink just around the corner of your office? Sofitel answered our wishes. Right in the heart of Singapore's business district is the location of the hotel. Beside of the famous Lau Pa Sat where you can find Sofitel So Singapore.

After office hours, we went to the rooftop bar to receive a complimentary champagne for us girls. As usual Abbey go for soda. We have a lot of laughs and many stories were told. We bonded with Princess Sarah's patatas, haha! Their french fries is awesome, thanks for the treat Ate Monnette.  

For sure we will back for more free champagnes.  Nice view, nice dj, nice golden pool. Yes, you can dip your tired feet into the pool, if you want to. Till next reservation Sofitel So.

Boston Seafood Shack - Lunch Deals at Star Vista

ABBEY: Who says I can't eat at a seafood restaurant? Good thing Boston Seafood Shack offers fish and chips. At 12SGD, they are offering complete lunch meal deals from 11AM to 5PM; one main dish, soup of the day and drinks. 

A tomato-based soup was served during that day along with a bottle of soda and my order of fish and chips. The coating of fish is crispy and went well with their tartar sauce. The two huge fillets were flavorful and fresh. Nothing special about the fries but they gave an ample amount. 

Maybe next time I'll try their baked cream dory with BBQ sauce. 





WILL: Are you looking for discounted rates or promotions on menu before heading to the restaurant? Aren’t you furious that lunch promotions is until 2PM and Monday to Friday only? Well, Boston Seafood Shack went against the odds. Except that they are offering a huge discount on their lunch deals, the timing is from 11AM to 5PM and extended until Saturdays! Yes 5PM and until Saturdays. So what are you waiting for? Head down to their Star Vista outlet to avail that promo. Oh! Hey! Hey! Please read first the context below for additional reasons why you need to dine-out. Haha!

We went last 29th of September, Monday, and after office I directly went there to get the famous fish and chips and costs only $8.00 (without soup and drinks). The servings is nice and big that made me asked my hubby to finish some of it for me. Haha.


Their place will make you feel that you are just beside the beach. Relaxing and very comforting. This is a really great place for merry making after the free zumba, kickboxing or yoga offered by Star Vista itself.

Town Restaurant of The Fullerton Hotel Singapore

ABBEY: Another Rejoice Container dinner, and again I was a "tag-along". This time it was held in a restaurant at Fullerton Hotel. Town Restaurant is one of the five restaurants on the hotel. This restaurant is on the other side of the river opposite Clarke Quay. 

The first food I put on my plate is tandoori chicken, plain naan, and prata with matching aloo curry. Next plate is sweet and sour fish fillet, roasted pork belly, and char siu pork.

I didn't bother to come back to that roasting station as the staff can't seem to smile nor laugh at a joke. I asked if I can have the whole slab of roasted pork, but instead I received a smirk. Anyways, nothing or nobody can ruin my festive aura during that day. 

The buffet also offers grilled beef, sausages and chicken wings. Last stop for me is ice cream. Their chocolate ice cream is rich in texture and taste.









WILL: First of all, I want to make an apology because we do not get a lot of chance to take photo of the food. As usual every year, Rejoice Container Services Pte Ltd holding an Appreciation Night for all the Import, Export and Operations Team. The time that we all do is eat, laugh and talked about anything except job. Haha! Now you know why we are lacking of photos. We are too busy eating and chit-chatting.

I love their dimsums a lot! Ice-kachang is good to see there. The chocolate fountain and the unforgettable for me is their merengue, reminds me of my childhood. I think this is the only restaurant that offers this meringue. Prawn..prawn and a lots of prawn.

Town Restaurant is one of the best buffet here in Singapore. You can book a table here.
