#pokandpok - Staycation 2016! - JINGTING.jaslynn.

Again at Wanderlust :D

With the opening of the Downtown line, Wanderlust hotel is now more accessible than before!
3 min walk away to Rochor, 6 min to Little India Station, and 10 min to Bugis station.

This is my second visit, and this time we picked the Pantone room.
Bed was super comfy, and shower facilities were clean.
The shower is separate with the toilet btw, and so is the sink, therefore no fighting ensued :D

Socks & Pans for lunch !

There are always new cafes to try on my list so we usually have no problem with what to eat hahahah.

Socks & Pans

7 Tanjong Pagar Plaza #01-108

Singapore 081007

Opening hours:

Monday to Thursday 11 am to 9 pm

Friday 11 am to 10 pm

It is located right next to Bingki, my favourite bingsu place!

Which makes it convenient to pop over for desserts, :B

Socks & Pans has an interesting concept that's reflected in their name - Traditional Kopi and Pizza tgt.

So don't expect any fancy schmancy lattes there, just your good ol' kopi teh c siew dai.

The food dishes are the ones with the twist though.

There are your standard pizza flavours,

and then there's He Bi Hiam, Thai Basil Pork, and Asian Pulled Pork. Like whaaat!

Cannot imagine these on pizzas hahaha.

You can see the menu here!

Show you what attracted us there in the first place..

Baked Mac & Cheese with Soft Egg - $11.10!!

This is really their star attraction.

Mac &Cheese sounds normal enough,

but S&P throws in crunchy croutons which breaks the creamy texture, hence the dish won't get jelat.

Shreds of bacon inside also lends the dish a punch of flavour.

The soft egg is also optional (top-up $1.20),

so you can skip it if you're worried that its too rich / cholesterol levels are too high ;p

Pok had their Wagyu Beef Bolognese - $9.90 , which he said was good.

I always feel bad when there's limited options for him but he always insists he is fine. #imsolucky

Caught a movie and then its on to sing k!

Absolute best la, sing until 1 am at Bugis+ then walk back to hotel.

Breakfast buffet at Cocotte is included, which comprises of a main dish,
and free flow cereal, milk, coffee, tea and assorted breads and pastries, till 11 am.
They have Waffle Crisps! Which I had 2 bowls each morning #fatdieme

The mess of melty looking sauce is my Eggs and Kale Benedict. #omnomnom

Whose breakfast is better uncle?

Is that why you have your game on face? HAHAH.

Planned a totally different 'itinerary' from the last time - yay we're finally going Adventure Cove!
Previously I kept postponing AC visits because I didn't want my freshly dyed red hair to fade HAHAH.
Even though I'd look like Ariel in the water, I'd rather keep the color for longer.
But aiya now cannot vibrant liao, so doesn't matter anymore T.T

Adventure Cove is like an upgraded version of www, with more thrilling rides!

Pok's favourite is the Duelling Racer - we went 4 times because there wasn't much of a queue.

Weekday perks hahahah

My favourite was the Riptide Rocket - Southeast Asia's first hydro-magnetic roller coaster!

Poor Pok didn't know what was in store, and he freaked out on the ride HAHAH.

There was a series of ups and drops so he was screaming all the way.

#uncoolboyfriend

Other than that, you have www favourites like Blu Water Bay, a tsunami pool,

And Adventure River, which is a prettier version of Shiok River in www.

Seriously I loveeeee the grottos, which are lit in brilliant blue (not cresyl) light,

which makes me feel like a legit mermaid,

and the sections where it overlapped with the marine life aquariums.

We were lucky enough to spot some dolphins too!

The Bay Restaurant within the park allows you to enjoy your meals overlooking the park scenery..

But of course the main point is..

It is opposite another locker and showers area which is less crowded HAHAH.

SO MY DEAR FRIENDS READING THIS.
If you ever go AC, dont dump your stuff into the first locker and shower area near the entrance.
Walk all the way in, so it's less crowded, and you can gao dim everything then head out comfortably.
