Paddock experience at F1 Singapore Night race

Singapore Night Race rocks! This is Singapore F1’s 7th edition at Marina Bay Circuit, but you can still expect tons of actions and excitement, both on and off the tracks.

Hamilton overtook fellow Mercedes teammate Nico to lead overall with 3 points.
0.007s was the margin between pole and second position!
We shared Nico’s frustration when everyone zoom off, and he had to perform Ctrl-Alt-Del reset on his steering wheel.

The decibel from the engines (and concerts too), the sparks, the adrenalin filled evenings.
We were able to witness all the pumping actions from the comfort of our Paddock suite.

Video : our experience on and off the track

Pit lane walk was the highlight for us. After watching the F1 machines lapping during their practice sessions, we could now witness the mechanics performing their last minute tuning.

Catch the Red Bull, wave an imaginary Flag. The safety car is still stationary, but we know it is a Singapore tradition to deploy the AMG every year πŸ™‚


Mercedes might have the most points (drivers and constructors) but Ferrari is red hot popular with the crowd!




On the left of Paddock building, this could be one of the best spot to catch the machines leave their pits. In the background, fellow racers need to paddle down their gears from 300kmh (sometimes with sensational wheel-lock and smoke) into a tight Turn 1. Feel the Rush πŸ™‚

Jennifer Lopez and John Legend entertains on Sunday, while Robbie Williams and Pet Shop Boys on Sat. Internationally renowned chefs will prepare a culinary feast for our eyes and tummy. Ice cream anyone?

Be prepared to queue for caricature or palm reading.

View from the Paddock, Temasek suite. Paddock experience is for the well-heeled with each ticket costing upwards of $8,000! Free flow cuisine and liquor, a chance for business people to network. Some suites are built directly above the pit stops, so yes, you can catch Alonso coming in to change his super-soft tyres.

Although the suites are air conditioned, we still prefer to hear the F1 roar under humid Singapore evening. Watching F1 at Marina Bay Circuit and on TV is different. You can hear the engines around the corners before they zoom by in a Flash!




Just when we thought the top 10 rankings have been settled, Mercedes decide to gatecrash the top 2 positions. AWESOME experience, right to the last seconds!

Perhaps, Daddy should bring the boys on a walkabout next year πŸ™‚

Thai cuisine at Siam Society

[ Media Invite ]

Craving for Thai Food?
We pop by 15 Jalan Riang for Siam Society sometime back.

The two young bosses have actually travelled around Thailand to bring the best menu back to Singapore.
Siam Society Location

Old school tattered menus, wooden tables and stools. Friends and family were bantering and enjoying each other’s company.
Siam Society pricing

It feels authentic and refreshing to drink our lemongrass or ice tea from the mugs.

Siam Society’s Chai(4) Po(4) egg (θœθ„―θ›‹) is quite flavourable. We like the mild Chai Po crunchiness but secretly wish there could be more. (Rated 3.5/5)

This dish was an accidental discovery in the kitchen. The boss has discover the chefs enjoying the simple egg dish and realise Singaporeans would love it too.

The surprise dish for us was the humble Thai style Morning Glory (feels and taste like kang kong). It looks plain, but when you chew on the crunchy stalk, all the fragrance burst into your mouth (good wok hei). ($8.90, Rated 4/5)

Together with the Chai Po egg, these two first dishes have whipped up our appetite.

Tom Yam seafood is filled to the brim with ingredients. The soup is slightly more sour than spicy. ($10.90, rated 3.75/5)

Love the Yellow Curry Prawn ($17.90, rated 4/5), the fragrant coconut curry powder is not overpowering. It is only slightly spicy, and Daddy knows the kids will adore the gravy!

Refreshing and addictive, the curry gravy goes well with plain white rice.

Weeping tiger (Grilled Sirloin Beef) – beef is a bit tough for us. This is definitely not one of the “traditional” Thai cuisines found in Singapore.

We heard Beef is more popular in Northern Thailand, perhaps Chiang Mai? ($24.90, rated 3/5)

Kids always love Prawn cakes, but Siam Society has Prawn Cake balls. A little bit salty for us, but our kids will enjoy this crispy dish. ($11.90, rated 3/5)

Steam Sea bass in chili lime, but it is too fishy for us. The sauce will dilute some of the fishy taste. Perhaps Daddy and Mummy are less accustomed to steamed fishes ($31.90, rated 3/5).

Thank you Siam Society for hosting Daddy and Mummy to a yummy date night.
Siam Society is located at 15 Jalan Riang S(358987). During weekends, this restaurant will be packed.
