KU DÉ TA Marina Bay Sands Singapore

Ku De Ta Singapore

Perched at the top of Marina Bay Sands, KU DÉ TA has one of the best dining spots in Singapore. Contrary to popular belief, Ku De Ta is not a fine dining restaurant; it is positioned as a casual dining place where you can get a nice cocktail and order a few dishes to share with friends.

That said, a meal at Ku De Ta is not what you would consider to be ‘cheap’. One is expected to spend at least $70/pax (without drinks). The price, of course, might put off many people. But when you get to enjoy the panoramic view of Singapore’s skyline for the whole night, this is certainly a place that is worth splurging on.

Tea Recommendations

Words and photographs by Alexa Michelle.

Many would know or have heard of the health benefits to drinking tea as compared to drinking coffee. For those whose body system rejects caffeine, it is quite common you would order yourselves a cup of tea when having dessert or perhaps a drink over a short meeting.

Perhaps the other reason to tea drinking could be for those who enjoy the aromatic fragrance of the tealeaves before taking a sip of warm indulgence. The action is a little similar to how we drink wine.

Below we have included three tea recommendations and their health benefits.

Restaurant Ember

Words and photos by Sarah Lim.

You know the food has to be good when a restaurant gets booked well in advance despite being housed in a location away from the bustling office crowd. The tranquillity is lost once inside the restaurant. A waitress piles her arms with several dishes, hastily serving them up before disappearing behind the kitchen doors.

Restaurant Ember at Hotel 1929 serves modern European cuisine, and it is not a secret that they have one of the best set lunches in Singapore.

Colgate SlimSoft Toothbrush + Party Invitation

AdvertorialColgate SlimSoft

People are often only aware of and receptive towards reality when bad things happen. And this can be taken in control by implementing preventive measures for the many aspects in our lives. Taking good care of our teeth is one – everyone should inculcate good oral hygiene in our daily habits before cavities and unhealthy gums say hello.

Since my recent visit to the dentist, it struck me that I ought to take better care of my teeth – especially when I love sweet stuff so very much. And this is apart from all the other crazy food I eat everyday.

After discovering how using a softer toothbrush is vital, I’ve been religiously using the new Colgate SlimSoft which, boasts extra soft bristles. Of course, it is impossible to see an immediate improvement in the teeth condition, but after switching to the Colgate SlimSoft, my gums feel less sore, and they don’t bleed as often as before.

Also, the good people at Colgate-Palmolive are throwing a party for my readers on 30th June, read on to find out how you can join us!
