High Tea Buffet at Goodwood Park Hotel

It was a lazy Saturday afternoon, at around close to 2, we walked towards Goodwood Park Hotel which was located right next to Far East Plaza in Orchard Road for a High Tea Buffet. This was my first time going for some high tea buffet at some hotel cause usually I do not splurge that much on buffet on cakes and finger foods. Reserving your table in advance is a must for this buffet as it is so popular. I reserved it in a week advance for a table for that saturday at 2 pm. The buffet starts at 2 - 5 pm.




Seated at the table, we were given a menu of choices of teas to choose. Not bad quite long list of variety of teas. I chose a tea which goes well to wash away the sweetness of cakes. Girls absolutely love high tea buffets. Most of the customers I saw are mostly women, rich young taitais, couples or families. The environment was very relaxed and comfortable which made me sit there for almost the whole day enjoying some life.

Being hungry since morning, I went for the sandwiches. OMG they are damn nice and delicious. Some of them are topped with caviar and many types of ham, even Parma hams. Oh oh oh so delicious. Nice spread to keep eating and eating. Plus with the tea, oh oh oh so good!

Sandwich spread.

The mango with prawn croissant tingles the taste buds of sweet and salty

The finger foods are disappointing though

These are lovely!!!

Cakes!!

Chocolate fountain for fondue lovers
After somewhile there will be someone playing the piano to add the atmosphere of nice relaxing live music. Wish you were a tai tai now right?

Lp went on a eating spree. She kept eating and eating cause the food is just so good. In fact she actually ate more than me! Probably due to cakes and icecream which they have a bottomless pit for it. Eat eat eat, stop, relax, sit for a while, read newspapers, then eat eat eat again. Sat there till almost 5 pm. So full afterthat. No need for dinner already.

A very full Hitori.

The price is about $30++. Total we paid about $71 bucks. Great food for a tea buffet.
P.S. There is two types of high tea buffet at two different cafes. One is the English tea, the other is local buffet. So do check their website on more info.

Boarding the Singapore Flyer

Well it's time to blog again. Finally the exams are over, time to relax and recharge our batteries for the next semester. Lp was here for visiting so brought her to the flyer.
It was meant to be a surprise for her, keeping secret on where I am going to bring her to. Even till we are there at the flyer building, she had no idea on what I am going to do. Haha. Told her that we are taking the Singapore flyer, she was overjoyed. Going to the Flyer centre was quite inaccessible as we had to take the MRT, change a bus and then walk a little distance to there.
The flyer is just so huge. Taking photos of it was quite a big challenge. At least managed to get part of it in the shot.
I bought the 7 pm ticket, It is one of the best timing for the flyer as you probably be able to see the sunset and also the transition from day to night which lets you get the most out of your money. $29.50 per adult which is quite expensive. But spending it is ok for an experience. It's more to bring in the tourists when the IR is up (tourist trap!).

There's quite alot of people that day, partly due to Mother's Day. Walked around the centre till about 6.45 pm to queue to board the flyer. Longggg queue, but proceed fast. As you can see, the sun is setting giving a nice hue to the sky.

In the boarding gate.

Getting into the capsule, the staff would open the door and you will hop in while the flyer rotates.

Looking at the next capsule

A nice view of the city. The view of the city is nice. The whole ride will take 30 mins and it's moving veerrry slowly that you don't feel that the wheel is rotating.

Soon night time view. The capsule is not a very good place to take photos especially night photos as there will be reflection and taking portraits is really bad.

Lights lights

After the ride, we took a bus back to the esplanade and walked back to suntec city for dinner at pepper lunch. Hungry la!
