ballin 🤑

Was j walk-in around painting the city red w a certain someone on cny eve trying to find a place that’s open to eat 🎊🧧.

After around 18k++ steps (😫) we decided to settle upon this cute lil burger bar tucked in the side of a building, along the road.

Wasn’t that hungry so I ordered the only chickin burgir option on the menu (Buttermilk Crispy Chicken - $16 w/o service charge etc etc).

I was served a burger with a soft fluffy bun, crispy and juicy fried chicken 🐓, and a mayo-e, tang-e sauce on top of it. It came with a side of pickles, onions and tomatoes that u could choose to put in the burger.

Headed out to cq after a reaaaaally long time in-order to celebrate another friend’s birthday 🎉 Made the decision to go to this arcade/bar called level up ⬆️.

BEST. DECISION. EVER.

There were 12 of us so to get a table we had a 600$ minimum spend 🤑. But it was worth it as essentially we got unlimited coins to play as many games 🕹️ as we wanted too, with really good live entertainment in the background 🎸. Really the music @ level up was just something else all together 😍

The food was unexpectedly very good 👍 👍 We started out with a fries platter which we absolutely devoured in no time 😝. The platter had an assortment of fries (curly and the sweet potato fries were my personal favourite). It came with 4 really yummy dipping sauces as well 😋

We then had some chicken poppers (not in picture) which were really crispy and flavourful (🌶️). We ordered some pizzas to go around. I only tried the mushroom and egg pizza and it was pretty damn good 😌. The runny egg j seems like a really unique pizza topping 🍳 but it plays w the rest of the ingredients pretty well.

Finally, we finished off with a nice vanilla ice cream and brownie note (had walnuts in it unfortunately 🥲). It was good (common brownie win 🥇).

Everything about level up is phenomenal, except for the service. Yet again all the staff seemed extra frustrated. Running a bar must be tough work 🤷‍♀️

Found ourselves at the top of Marina Bay Sands at LAVO upon being kicked out of Ce La Vie for being young thugs 😤

It was the eve of my friend’s birthday, so we wanted to have dinner at a special restaurant, and LAVO’s vibe sure does not disappoint 😫

We ordered the Margherita 🍅 ($32), Truffle 🍄($33), and Carne 🥓 ($37) pizzas. I suggest you skip the Margherita, as it paled in comparison to the other two pizzas.

The Truffle pizza 🍄 did not have a strong truffle taste (which I enjoyed, as in my experience some dishes get completely dominated by the truffle flavour 😔). This flavour was subtly complimented by the other toppings (ricotta, arugula and wild mushrooms!) giving it a very fresh, yet complex taste 👅 .

The Carne pizza 🥓 was LOADED with what i think were hams (Salame, Prosciutto etc etc). I enjoyed it very much as the flavours were deep, and yet didn’t have the heavy meaty and greasy taste that this kind of meat tends contain (imo as a small animal eater at least 🥺). It looked really pretty as well ☺️.

We also ordered the Rigatoni Melanzana pasta 🍆🍅($36) and the Spaghetti Carbonara 🧀🥓($38). The star of the Rigatoni Melanzana was the buffalo mozzarella. The sauce was mediocre at best. Meanwhile, the spaghetti carbonara was creamy and rich. Regardless, it’s safe to say that both pastas were nothing special.

The service was subpar on the day we went, the staff seemed kinda annoyed which was a buzzkill 🐝 🔪. (This might have been because we arrived at around 10:30 pm, but from my previous experience service at LAVO is usually exceptional, maybe they were having an off day). They did however bring out a pastry in the end FOC to give the birthday girl 🥳🍾

Overall, it was an enjoyable experience and we all had a memorable night 🤍.

Rating: 4.0/5 (4.2/5 if you take the immaculate vibe of the location into consideration)
