There’s nothing like finding photos you didn’t know you had of your favourite buildings from your favourite city…New York, New York.

Views from hotel windows

Sometimes when travelling for work this is close as I get to the city I’m in;

the view from the hotel window…

Spring time in the city

Perth skies, spring, the hint of humidity that says summer is on the way.

Singapore Fling

Marina Bay Sands Chocolate Buffet

Anyone who knows me is well aware that while I love film, television and music – I am really passionate about food. Cooking it, eating it, taking dodgy photographs of it.

Last week in Singapore I visited The Club on the 57th floor of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel. The Sky Park has a commanding view of Singapore city from one side and the harbour from the other.

If you’re a guest of the hotel and not afraid of heights you can even swim in the infinity pool. Non guests such as my friends and I can pay $38++ (everything in Singapore is plus plus for GST and service charges) each evening after 8pm to indulge in the chocolate buffet.

I will pad out this post at a later date but for now here are some photos of the 57 types of chocolate decadence on offer. I reckon I managed about 20 – and didn’t vomit (though we did all need to walk back to our hotel).

Some of the dishes I tried included churros, chocolate pudding, individual baked chocolate fondant, profiteroles, cheesecake lollipop, white chocolate pannacotta, 67 per cent chocolate ganache truffle…and of course, macarons.

I think this was my second plate, though I could be wrong…as eating only dishes derived from chocolate for dinner is bound to alter your brain function in some way.
