01 Nov 09 - Picnic by the River

After a long long time, we finally have something different to blog about..
We have been living in Singapore for about a quarter of a century. Like most of the other Singapore couples, we have kind of ran out of idea for dating spots.
Yesterday, we decided to bring our son out to our last Vday spot.



Instead of going for posh crusine, we were thrilled by a great variety of local favourites under the candlelight and the nice scenery by the river. Picnic by Kallang River is quite ideal if you're sick of typical posh restaurants and joining the crowd in Orchard on the special day. Since it was just a normal day out, we did away with the candles and wine glasses which we brought along during V day.

So where exactly is this spot? At the open park opposite the row of restaurnts behind national inddor stadium. This is the view right in front of our picnic spot:





Like last time, with a much smaller budget compared to the price of usual v day set meals, we went to Kallang Airport Market to buy our food from numerous famous stalls. Here's our wonderful spread:

1. Seafood Mariana Set inclusive od Mushroom Soup and Garlic Bread
2. BBQ Chicken Wings
3. Laksa
4. Oyster Omelete
5. Chicken Chop
6. Soup Sop Drink
7. Mango pomelo
8. Papaya milk







After having our dinner, we spent our remaining time flying kite... or should I say trying to fly one! It wasn't very windy that day. But we managed to fly it for a couple of minutes every time we tried. Though we tried to take a video of it, it was too dark to see us running around like silly lil kids. :P
