I’ve alway said I love Singapore.

While Malaysians may grimace at my remarks about how much I love the food in Singapore, I’m still steadfast to my opinion that GOURMET food in Singapore rocks (in comparison to Malaysia) and damn, Singapore chicken rice is just darn tasty.

This trip to Singapore was kindly hosted by the team at Days Hotel and Ramada Hotel on Zhongshan Park.
If you wish to know about both hotels and the food served, you can refer to my links at the bottom of this post.

We have a bubbly guide who shared tales of Singapore as we strolled down the street, embarking on our “Balestier Heritage Trail” which tells a tale spanning nearly 180 years and has borne witness to Singapore’s remarkable journey from a British trading post to a modern city state.
This trail is about 4km, demarcated with trail markers.
You can opt to wonder out on your own, or arrange for a guide.

Everyone loves Bali.
There are many ways to enjoy yourself on this island; from being the infinite party animal (drink, dance, sleep, repeat) to just being a motionless log on the beach.
It is all possible.

The 2015 plan is to stay at one hotel in Singapore per month.

I’ve been making monthly trips to Sg since last year, and then the currency just went unfavorable from month to month so that put a halt to my future trips.

Instead of monthly, I now visit quarterly instead, keeping myself abreast with news, happenings & food trends.
Flights are pretty standard; about M200-250 for KL-SG return.
The hotels however, are a pain in the wallet.

Last month I got to know that HotelQuickly upgraded their app.
