Seafood Paradise at Singapore Flyer

A place for great crabs! Seafood paradise serves great crabs. Big and fresh. We went there to try out the crabs because my aunt was a great fan of their crabs. We ordered the butter crab and chilli crab. The butter crab was delicious! This butter crab, unlike others that I had before, had alot of sauce. The fried mantou will also go very well with the butter crab's sauce. The chilli crab is pretty good too! Now it ranks number 2 on my chilli crab list. If only it was more affordable :X 2 crabs, 1 noodles, 1 fried rice, 1 fish and 1 toufu made us $330 poorer. The crabs were $80 each. Initially we wanted to make reservations for mother's day dinner but if we were to multiply the bill by the number of people that we will have for mother's day, the bill will be close to $2000. I think I will only be able to eat here on very special occasions. Meanwhile, I will satisfy my crab cravings at places that I can still afford to visit more frequently. On a side note, the service here was really good. It made us feel that the money spent was worth it. They were very attentive and friendly. The Electric run was happening as we had our dinner so we had quite a view!

National Geographic Exhibition: 50 greatest photographs

Paid a visit to the art science museum for the first time for the National Geographic exhibition of the 50 greatest photographs. Exhibition ends 27 October 2013 so head down soon before it ends. The exhibition showcases some of the most amazing pictures taken for the magazine. There is also a story behind each of the pictures. Some pictures looked really normal to me but CW kept telling me to read the description. He said that it's the story behind each picture that makes them amazing. As the exhibition is '50 greatest photographs', I was expecting to be blown away by every picture but I guess we have to look beyond just the picture. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You will be able to see the iconic Afgan girl picture at the exhibition. Photography is allowed but without the flash.

What the exhibition was about
