[random dinner] Nostalgic-themed local café - Downstairs + King of Fried Rice

Image
Baby came to  Suntec City  to have dinner with me at a newly opened local food joint - 'Downstairs'. It is a Singaporean nostalgic-themed local café located at the basement of Suntec City. There are many familiar childhood things & sights, such as the inspired chess round stone tables/chairs which were quite common at HDB void decks, but have grown more uncommon now. There also a HDB-styled old school letter-box, and Hopscotch markings on the floor! However, the most unique thing would have to be the kiosk where you have to input your order. It's been made to look like the old orange coin phone booths of yesteryear! I ordered the  Curry  Pork Cutlet Rice, and Baby had Hainanese Pork Rice with Tomato Sauce.  We had a nice dinner overall. The damage was about SGD21. Baby and I will come back to try out their other mains and breakfast sets! Gong Xi Fa Cai !  It’s that time of the year again to begin feasting on delectable goodies!! What better...

The album, 'Sing, Love' was officially launched with a special concert at The Coliseum, Hard Rock Hotel Singapore which is located at Resorts World Sentosa .     I was able to take part in this launch all thanks to my Sweetie, who extended her invite to me. We had a blast at the concert! The 'Sing, Love' project ended on a high note and it was well received by the public too!     Singapore is celebrating her Golden Jubilee this year, and therefore the album named 'Sing, Love' was created to celebrate Singapore's 50th birthday in musical style. Ruth Ling and Red Roof Records came out with an original music album with five original songs and accompanying music videos.
