This was way back in Feb on a Sunday, we were sitting on sofa chair waiting to be called.
The view outside... ...
Guessed it yet? Sky Dining courtesy of Blamer!
Being a tourist spot, there's definitely a photo taking kiosk for remembrance sake.
On board the flyer finally. There were two other couples sharing the cabin with us, but we were too shy to ask for a photo together with them, let alone take photos of them. We will be going for two rotations which amounts to an hour in total as each complete rotation takes approximately half an hour.
Pieces of bread topped with salmon tatare and olives to kick-start our meal.
Our friendly cabin butler who will be at our beck and call for the entire "flight". He's busy concocting a refreshing drink of summer berries in ginger ale.
Our appetizer, Pan-fried Hokkaido scallops with garden greens in a sweet and tangy sauce.
Cheers to good health!
At about now, we had reached the top of the flyer, 142 metres in all, around 42-stories high. Currently the biggest observation wheel in the world.
With a viewing radius of 45 kilometres, it is 3 kilometres more that the entire length of our island city. From the Flyer, it is able for us to see Changi Airport, Sentosa Island and even parts of Malaysia and Indonesia. But if you really wanna see all those, dun ride in at night like us wa ha ha.
Familiar landmark behind us? I think it's Suntec City.
Second rotation and in came the mains. The Flyer never stops turning, hence the waiters and waitresses was so hastily placing the dishes on our tables before darting out of the cabin, so as not to be taken up into the sky with us.
I took the salmon which was a little over-cooked in my opinion, and the sauce tasted like soy sauce base and a tad too salty for me. I preferred the grilled asparagus and french beans to the fish.
Blamer's stew beef was on the contrary, really tender and flavourful... Should have conned her into exchanging it with me... ...
Last panoramic view of our city of skyscrapers before we began our final descent. I think the Maybank building really stood out among the rest due to lighting that ran the full length of the building.
We proceed to the restaurant on the ground for our dessert.
Mango pudding with strawberry jelly and crunchy cookies by the side. I really like the diversity in texture when you combine everything - the cookies, jelly and pudding. The burst of flavours is indescribable.
My best dish of the night!!
Being total suckers, Blamer and I bought and were waiting for the photo taken before we boarded the Flyer. We contributed to Singapore's double digit growth figure.
Ta Da... Still around the Lunar New Year period. An auspicious tiger as the macot, I was trying to pluck out one of the whiskers for memento but failed... ...
Mustn't forget to give thanks to our dear butler, who gave us great service and tried umpteen times trying the take the perfect picture for us.
