Weekend shopping

Went out last Sunday to the new shopping centre that opened at Jurong East… 

2015 01 11 12 18 04First though, we had lunch at Han’s at Jem. 

2015 01 11 12 44 16By the time I remembered to take a photo of the main dish… only this much was left. It was brunch so we were hungry!

2015 01 11 13 07 49The new shopping centre is called Big Box. It’s this… mega mall sort of concept where I guess is very common in other countries besides SG. 

2015 01 11 13 09 37High ceilings. Big stores classified by theme? Nah, I mean category, yes that’s the word. 

2015 01 11 13 09 492015 01 11 13 10 17So there are shops selling various categories of items… and if it’s operated by the… management? they’ll call it XXXX.BOX.

2015 01 11 13 13 27Chinese New Year in coming in a month… and this shopping centre has already put up the new year decorations when we visited. 

2015 01 11 13 14 25The food court on the top floor… 

2015 01 11 13 19 46A… bazaar (?) on the first floor selling Korean and Japanese food stuffs. 

2015 01 11 13 24 56Japanese snacks… 

2015 01 11 13 25 05And more snacks!

2015 01 11 13 28 28And more snacks! Korean this time. 

2015 01 11 13 30 12We also spotted them selling these HUGE packs of prawn crackers and ring-like (no idea what flavour it is) snacks… 

2015 01 11 13 30 32Prawn crackers. Packed up instant noodles-style. 

2015 01 11 13 30 38That’s the HUGE ring snack. Reminds me of deep fried onion snacks...

2015 01 11 13 32 31The chicken packaging is so cute!

2015 01 11 13 34 40Even the shopping baskets are huge. See that blue thing inside? That’s a regular shopping basket. 

2015 01 11 15 07 30At the checkouts of the super market. The way this supermarket works is such that it encourages people to buy in bulk. Like you get 5% off if you buy 2 of the same item etc… We bought some stuff from the supermarket before heading back to Jem. 

2015 01 11 15 37 41I was darn thirsty so me and my sis got a cup of bubble tea. The plastic seal is really cute! Albeit a little out of season. The English translation isn’t good. It really should be “My dear, I’ll be waiting for you here."

2015 01 11 15 38 10A really, really cute pillar in front of Tori Q at Jem, decorated in that shop’s motifs. 

2015 01 11 15 38 28It’s really cute ne? 

2015 01 16 19 03 01I was playing around with an app that lets you add stickers on photos and I found a set of stickers which fitted this photo perfectly. Nice right? XD

That’s all for today! Hopefully the vacation photos will come this weekend? :P XD
