Harry’s review: This is Singapore’s largest chain for a bar and dining type establishment. Amex Love Dining gives up to 50% off at over 20 locations locally. We had the burger, fish and chips, and wings – all were reasonably priced and fairly well-done. Overall, above-average quality Western-fare in a fun atmosphere.

Review of Violet Oon: Peranakan fare @Ion
Violet Oon review: Lovely Peranakan food and vintage-style local options, served in a somewhat atas (upscale) setting at Ion Orchard Singapore. Plus, with the American Express Platinum Charge card, I enjoyed the use of an S$50 dine-in voucher, courtesy of American Express.
Review of Crossroads cafe @ Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel Singapore… again
This is my second review of Crossroads cafe! As this place will be undergoing temporary closure soon, the husband and I thought that we’d come and enjoy some Love Dining benefits (50% off with two adults) before they shut their doors. Love the burgers and sandwiches here, and especially the spicy buffalo chicken wings – those are a real winner!
