Boarding was on time, and smooth. We settled into our seats quickly. Here is the hot towel which was handed out. Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Reading through the in-flight magazine and I noticed this article. Coincidentally, Amsterdam will be the first destination for the new SQ Airbus A350, expected to begin by April 2016. Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Menus were handed out. A very attractive design. Making me hungry! Image and video hosting by TinyPic

This was my main meal. I chose the Peranakan option - Pandan coconut rice with spicy chicken. Tasted very good, well, I'm biased as I like Peranakan food. Image and video hosting by TinyPic

The plane felt rather cold. Thankfully I was well prepared, with my jacket and the blanket helped. I managed to get some sleep and soon it was time for breakfast. I chose the Asian noodle option for breakfast. Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Here is a video of my experience.

Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3 Shopping and the new Long Bar by Raffles

We fly from Singapore to Amsterdam on Singapore Airlines. But before the flight, check out the renovated Terminal 3, where they have done some work to expand the shopping area upwards. The usage of double volume space, I think.

 Here is a store that has expanded upwards.

There is a Zara, which is now double storey. Pretty neat yeah.

Here is a video I made as I walked around the place. In the video, I check out the rest areas, and also enter the Zara store.

In this video, I check out the Singapore Food Street, also in Terminal 3. Plenty of local food choices, if you are hungry. Chicken Rice, Nasi Lemak, Beef Noodles, all there. Reasonably priced. If all this doesn't suit you, there is a Burger King at the end of the food street. Understandably, the Burger King was pretty crowded.

As I checked out the shops, I went into DFS, went upstairs, and chanced upon this! Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Very interesting. Wonder how much they charged for drinks. Check out the menu. It says the drinks were free! (Tasting portion) Image and video hosting by TinyPic

The decor was pretty cool. Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Now check out this video I made of the Long Bar, enjoying my Singapore Sling!

This was my drink - the Singapore Sling! Image and video hosting by TinyPic
