Sky Dining Fun!

Date:  Dec 26, 2011

Many donkey years ago.  My wife bought me a Birthday Dinner on the Cable Car.  Back then, it was small cable car, and the ventilation was bad, and the cable car was a bit shaky.  May be due to its small size.  The Cable Car operator only offer this special dinner once in a year, which is on February 14 Valentines day.  The experience was bad that year, as a lot of couples needed to queue up, it was hot and humid, and then, If I remember correctly, the whole evening are dining cable cars.  HaHa

Well… after so many years.  We are back!

This time, we decided to bring Jay & Kay to dine with us on a cable car on the Boxing day.

The love cable car.  The two brothers simply look at the cable car views.

Of course they have sat in the cable cars for many times before.  But to dine in a cable car, this is their first time.  I guess, this would be one of the best Christmas present for them.

 

We arrived earlier at 5:45pm.  So, we got the chance to take lots of photos.  The two brothers just sit there patiently and wait for 6PM to come.

Of course, they can see the cable car in operation too.

This few days, the wind from the NorthEast is blowing very hard.  Before the Sky Dinning, we were a bit worried if the strong wind will affect the operation of the cable car.  It seems fine from here.  The wind is not as strong as in my home.

As 6PM arrives, we went to registered and get our welcome Champaign.

Kay Kay is still young.  So he does not need to buy ticket.  But at the same time, there is no meal for him.  As well as drink.  As for Jay, he gets a Mocktail.  And he loves it!

Lai… Gambai!!!!!

Ok.  It is our turns to wait in the queue.  We are Dinning Car #4.  Where is it?

Let's take a group photo before the Sky Dinning.

Meanwhile, opposite us, when the empty car came, the waiters pushed in the table, clip on to the window, more waiters bring in the food / appetizers, and by the time the cable car move to us, it is ready for us to board.  Wow.  That is fast and impressive.

Kay Kay was shocked and happy to see there are food inside, and there are cable cars around him.

Jay Jay, as usual, observe and try to figure things out.

Our appetizer - smoked salmon.  It is very nice.  Not too salty and nice touch of sweetness.

Jay has his corn soup.

All of us are very happy indeed.

Here is the victory sign.

Good view from here.

Kay Kay keep counting the cable cars.

Mommy trying to figure out how to use my new Lumix.

And every one just look at the outside view.

Meanwhile, on the other side, i.e. Sentosa, there are so many people queuing to get on to cable car.  Wow.  And all of them just stares at us.  :)

So, you asked a question "Who sit in Cable car?"  This Kay Kay will raise his hand. "Me!"

 

Its time to take more photos...

OK.  Round two.  They collected the wine glasses, and deliver the main course.  It will be Salmon for me, and Roasted Chicken for Mommy.

The Salmon is nice.  Again, the sauce is just perfect.

I don't like the Chicken thou...

WAIT!  Where is the Fish & Chips?

Oh no… The waiter sent the message and says that the kitchen is not ready to deliver the Fish and Chips… oh no… the kids will be hungry then...

No Fish & Chip did not bother the little one.  "Who sits in cable car?" Kay answered "Me!"

Finally, we are heading back to Jewel Box again...

Let's set up the Spider Leg…. and take a full family shots… Not bad… the Size from XXL to M to XS and to 130.

Wow.  It works.  Look at the blinking lights.  10-9-8…..3-2-1 CHEEEESEE...

The sun has set.  Too much clouds, could see the sunset.  But we have lots of fun just keep continuing asking the questions "Who sits in cable car?"  Kay said "Me!"  and every one responded.

Third round.  The waiter came in and deliver the belated Fish & Chips.  It is actually quite yummy.  And he said "We will give you another round complimentary."  Wow!  That is great!

The night scene is very nice too.  This is the reflexion.

The Universal Studio directions...

The PSA and the city directions.

Last round, the dessert...

and the tea.

OK.  I must admit, after you sit 3 rounds, you start to get bored too.  hahahaha.  But still we can shoot some nice photos.

Jay Jay took out his new camera too.  And start shooting here and there.

OK.  Who sits in cable car?  "Me!"

Before going back, the bubble machines is up and running.  Had some fun there.

OK.  I think the boys had a great time yesterday.  We will try to think of something to do next week too.

I think they did a good job revamping the Sky Dinning.  Now is no longer once a year!

I think, if budget allow, you can bring your kids to a Sky Dinner once a while.   It is a fun thing to do.  And this is better than the Singapore Flyer one, as that you are dinning with a few people and KIDS are not allowed.  I bought a POP Corns on board the cable car.  Before I bought, I asked, are we allowed to bring own food to cable car.  They said, "of course!"  Because I thought SMRT don't allow, so, may be cable car also don't allow.  hahahahaha

Enjoy the photos….
