Speak Unique!
The current buzz phrase from the Singapore Tourism Board is ‘Uniquely Singapore' --- highlighting many unique attractions of the island-state.
The STB goes as far as listing numerous features that really are unique...a few of which follow...
· Singapore Seafood. Including Chilli Crab, Black Pepper Crayfish and Butter Prawns. Try them all at East Coast Seafood Centre...and other seafood outlets.
· Hip Hotels. Try the Gallery Hotel - seen as ‘hip and happening' near Robertson Quay. Chinatown boutique hotels also rate a mention...and the Nuomi in Seah Street is a boutique property most unique.
· Spas. The ‘in thing' in town. Sample the Spa Botanica - winner of the Best Spa Experience Award for last 3 years - on Sentosa Island.
· Porcelain painting - Ming Village. Design your own tea-set!
· Floodlit golf - Jurong Country Club.
· Take a picture with the Raffles Hotel doorman. He's been standing there for years in his elaborate uniform...not sure if he ever gets inside!
