Awesome weekend....

I had an awesome decadent weekend of tapas, italian food and Auriga Spa at The Capella that whizzed pass so quickly (and it's moan-day again...meh..).....and I must say The Capella is really nice and it felt as if I'm not in Singapore for a bit. It actually looks very very much like the Four Seasons Hotel in Bali Ubud....very similar with almost the same building design which I find it's a bit of a copy cat but then it's just awesome nonetheless.

Thing is, the plan was to grab some food at the restaurants there before spa session but then both The Knolls (western buffet) and Cassia (Chinese restaurant) are fully booked! No seats at all and we got shooed off  to the Bob's Bar like social rejects. BUT turned out that the Bob's Bar does have some pretty decent food available.


The good thing is that Bob's Bar has got open area with day beds where you can lounge around and even sleep in and it's a comfy (subjected to how much breeze there is considering the crazy heat these days) chill out area that's perfect for lazy weekends...and they have pretty good food. Must try is the Wagyu burger with truffle mayonnaise cos it's super duper yum and juicy and the Tapas Platter is superb!!!


The Gambas Pil Pil is to die for cos they use super fresh big prawns and they also have Jamon Iberico which isn't too shabby according to Mr Bear the Jamon connoisseur. The fried blue cheese and quinoa are so damn good too....I'm hungry talking about it now....

Auriga Spa rocks too! Will write more about it in another post but I really had a super awesome weekend! Why the hell are weekends so short??? And I often wonder who were the wankers who decided the 5-day work week and 2-day weekend work system??? They've got all of us screwed by having a pathetic 2-day weekend...mehhh....

Anyway, I've got more photos of the weekend here in my photo blog....
