After a long hiatus, like almost 2 months not writing in my blog, here my very first blog in 2017. So I want to share my 2016 Christmas experience in Singapore.
Me and my husband suddenly planned to visit Singapore to celebrate our Christmas. We stayed 4 days 3 night there. My last visited in Singapore was 2 years ago and I never get bored to visit this country.
Here's some highlight of my trip there. Much about hotel, food, and place I visited.
Recommended Hotel to stayed :
CARLTON HOTEL, CITY HALL
ST. REGIS HOTEL, TANGLIN
Recommended food I found there :
TONKATSU by MA MAISON, CHIJMES
It's a Japanese French style restaurant located at Chijmes Square. You can choose your favorite Tonkatsu, its chicken, prawn, pork, mackerel, even oyster. Smart choice is combo package, that they already included rice (brown or white), miso soup, tons of salads, and bottomless green tea of course. To be honest this is the best Tonkatsu I've ever taste. The pork tonkatsu was very juicy in the inside and crispy on the outside.

NATIONAL GALLERY SINGAPORE
I've been wanting to check out the National Gallery since it's open last November 2015, but time and space just didn't permit me. Finally I have a chance to visit this place when I went back to Singapore for Christmas. I had even more fun spinning and twirling around the former City Hall and Supreme Court Building. All that colonial architecture and Singapore history are amazed me.
General admission for entering this is SGD 20 for non-singaporean, but lucky for us it's Christmas day so all entry was free for today. You can buy the ticket online here
SUN FLOWER GARDEN, TERMINAL 2 CHANGI
While waiting for your flight at the airport, why don't you take a look at several places Changi offers, such as : Butterfly garden (Terminal 3) or Sunflower Garden (Terminal 2).
That's all, hope you enjoyed and see you on the next post.
