A day @Iluma
Well, it is a typical sunday and we have been heading to the same few places (Ang Mo Kio Hub, Bishan Junction 8 etc) so we decided to go for a change. My sweet heart suggested Iluma as she hardly explore there so we decided to head there for shopping.
Well, the first thing when we step in is that we felt very cold as the aircon is strong! The place seems quite big and the shops seem quite unique. There is a special escalator that leads you all the way up to the 4th storey. We find that there isn't much stores to shop. There is an arcade and a few restaurants to eat including Empire State (Monkey on top on building), a Japanese cosplay restaurant, a dessert store (cheeky), noodle house and Xin Cafe. We head to the noodle house at first, but it seems normal to us. We decided to try Xin cafe since my dear wants to try.
Our first impression of xin cafe is that the ambience is very nice. We ordered 2 different fried rice (Samba and normal) and 2 cups of mango pomelo drink. The drink is simply tasty and highly recommended.
As for the fried rice, mine (normal) is a little tasteless or rather I can't taste much, but the prawns are fresh and delicious. My dear has a better fried rice (Samba) which has the spice and strong taste, so she likes it a lot. I have to admit hers taste much better. Another good thing is that they are now offering 20% promo until end of sept this year so you all can try bringing your friends to try.
At first we wanted to go and try the dessert store, but we did not as we are so full. We walked up to the highest floor to have a look at the scenery, but the wind is so strong and it is so cold! Hence we decided to head back down to keep ourself warm. Initially, we wanted to watch a movie but there wasn't any good shows for us to watch. The good shows were either watched before or it will release another few weeks later. Anyway, we haven't watch in film garde before. May be next time we can try watching there. We hang around a little while before we head home. The day was short, but we certainly enjoyed ourselves. Thats all for now!
