From October 3 to November 8, PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay’s award-winning restaurant Peppermint is teaming up with the Tourism Authority of Thailand and Top Chef Thailand Season 3 winner Wattanasak ‘Bas’ Changkeb to tempt you with bold, authentic flavours straight from the Land of Smiles – but with a novel surprise. Feast on gaeng kua sapparod lobster smothered in tangy pineapple and tamarind gravy, or the sweet and savory pu pad pong kari crab stir-fry with yellow curry. Crank up the heat with soup hang wua, a fiery Wagyu beef oxtail tower with a punch of coriander, or phed ped yang, tender roast duck in a rich, spicy red curry. For something lighter, the classic Thai seafood soup, infused with lime, chili and lemongrass from PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay’s own Urban Farm, will hit the spot. That's not all – you can also stand a chance to win a trip for two to Koh Samui, courtesy of Bangkok Airways. Keep an eye on its Instagram page for more details.
October is for many things – fright nights, festivals, and not forgetting great eats. Singapore’s very own Gates of Hell swing open once again at Universal Studios Singapore's Halloween Horror Nights, back with a terrifying haunted house inspired by the popular South Korean Netflix apocalyptic horror series, Sweet Home. Then it’s feast time – head to the Singapore Food Festival, the country’s largest gastronomic event, and Cosford Container Park for a month-long Oktoberfest celebration, where icy beers and juicy wursts await. There’s a feast for the eyes too, at the Singapore River Festival's spectacular light show and a breathtaking space VR experience at Science Centre Singapore. October is set to be packed, so scroll down and don’t miss a thing.
