Wildseed Cafe at the Summerhouse: a review
Had a lovely brunch at Wildseed Cafe at the Summerhouse. We had amazing pizza, nice crispy curly fries with truffle sauce, and the loveliest carrot cake. Plus, the S$200 Amex local dining credit covered the entire bill.
Mikuni Voucher of S$50 from American Express
The S$50 voucher for Mikuni is an almost no strings attached freebie; I highly recommend American Express Platinum Charge card holders to enjoy it whenever possible.
