Go! Go! Curry! @ Parco Marina Bay

Go! Go! Curry! opened at Parco Marina and currently, they are running a 30% discount for all items!  Too good a deal to be missed!  I was actually attracted by its gorilla mascot first.  It gave me quite a scare as it suddenly appeared in front of me when I was shopping around in the mall.

I decided to buy something from Go! Go! Curry! back for dinner with hubby.

Bought "The Grand Slam" so that I could try out the different varieties - the chicken, the pork, the shrimps and sausages.  Only $12.50 after discount.

The portion was just right for both of us.  The chicken was tender and so if you like your meat to have a firmer texture, choose the pork katsu.

For take-away, they separated the curry from the rice.  The curry was almost black and although it looked sort of... unappetizing, it tasted good and went well with the rice.

The next time I would order a set of pork katsu curry for my own! :)

Saboten @ Parco Marina Bay

Before going for Kit Chan's Concert at Marina Bay Sands, we had our dinner at Saboten at Parco Marina.

Sauce for the tonkatsu.  3 scoops will be enough and mix it with the grounded sesame seeds.

Grinding the sesame seeds...

Free flow of shredded cabbage

Both of us ordered the Loin Katsu Set which comes with rice, pickles, miso soup, free-flow of cabbage and also desserts.
Great Tonkatsu served here.

We had a scoop of green tea ice-cream each.  The ice-cream was soft but nothing exceptional.

After dinner, we took our time to walk over to Marina Bay Sands, passing the helix bridge.  It took us around 15 minutes to walk from Millenia Walk to MBS.

Unarguably one of the most established local singers, Kit Chan is often dubbed as Singapore’s “national treasure” for good reasons. Since her debut in 1993, she has proven herself in many diversified areas – singing, theatre, television drama, poetry, song writing, community work, etc. 

Before the start of the concert, in her sexy voice, she made the "Not-so-standard" type of announcement to the audience:  “Please turn off your mobile phones, even if you own HTC phones and subscribe to SingTel” (the show was sponsored by HTC and SingTel ), and urged those who didn’t like the way she made the announcement not to write into the forum pages to complain.

The music director for the concert was Goh Kheng Long.  However, seated at the circle seat, I couldn't see the faces of the performers :(  Kit Chan impressed us with her good sense of humour and of cause, her great vocal.  I think she is really the best in Singapore!  Other than Mandarin songs, she also sang English, Cantonese and even French!

Photography is strictly not allowed during the concert.  If the usherer caught you taking photos/ recording the concert, he/ she will flash the torchlight at you which can be very embarrassing.

It was a great concert!  I totally enjoyed it and I think I will be getting her new album "Re-Interpreting Kit Chan" soon!

Keisuke Tokyo @ Parco Marina Bay (Millenia Walk)

I think I am obsessed with ramen these days.  This was my third bowl of ramen within a week.  After doing IPL at Musee Platinum, it was already around noon and in the moring, I had a Pilates class.  Thus, I was starving!  I craved for something piping hot and soupy.  Didn't want to go too far, I decided to step into Keisuke Tokyo for a bowl of hot ramen.

 It was rather quiet during lunch hour.

A curious boy looking into the kitchen to see the chefs at work 

 You can see a display of their special bowls right at the centre of the restaurant.

 My order - Crab Stock Ramen and Egg ($15.80)

Everything else I selected "normal"

 They provide beansprouts and chopped onions for every table

 After quite a long wait, my ramen finally was served to me.  You can see the the soup was really very thick.  Overall presentation of the bowl of ramen was very nice.  I am not too sure what the the "curly red threads" in the bowl, but they sure added colours to the presentation.  The bowl used seemed to be different from those more spherical ones that I saw in other food blogs.

 Yum Yum...

 The noodles used are the broader and thicker ones.

 I took some beansprouts, very appetizing.

After service charge and GST, the total cost for this bowl of ramen is $18.60, which is steeper than many of its competitors.  I think this meal was worth it for the food and experience.  However, I may not revisit anytime soon as there are still many ramen restaurants in Singapore that I have not tried!  Yes... the famous Santouka and Ippudo are next in my list!

Nantsuttei Ramen/ Octa Hotel @ Parco Marina Bay

Gathering with Shili (Birthday mummy) and Ruijun at Parco Marina Bay.  Shili and I made the decision to have our lunch at Nantsuttei Ramen since Ruijun was late.  Haha... A cute chef mascot greeted us at the door.  I think these stuffed toys are for sale too.

We couldn't finish the soup and somehow, we found that it was too oily at the bottom after we finished our ramen.

After a heavy meal, we still proceeded to Octa Hotel for desserts. 

We ordered 2 different types of parfait.
