Our Staycation @Swissotel Merchant Court

We checked-in on Sunday for an one-night stay at Swissotel Merchant Court. We had made use of our Feed at Raffles card special room rate voucher which cost S$150++ for a weekend stay. Even though our room has two big beds, ZY still insist that she wanted to sleep in a baby cot. She intended to 'squeeze' herself into this tiny cot which we highly suspected that she would not be able to make it through the night.

This is the view from our room. We can see both the Singapore River and Clarke Quay ^_^


As it's drizzling the whole day on Sunday, we did not went to the pool. We went to Szechuan Court at Swissotel the Stamford for a pre-birthday celebration for MW. Mw loves the sharksfin soup served in this restuarant but to his utter disapointment, the restaurant has changed its menu and stopped serving sharksfin soup! So in the end he ordered the Sea Cucumber with Fish Maw soup which is so-so only :(
We also ordered the Cod Fish with Fermented Bean Crumbs, Stewed Pork Beancurd and the yummy Szechuan Fried Rice.
We also had a cake blowing session at the restaurant.
After a heavy dinner, we took a walk along Clarke Quay. It was a really buzzling place and ZY had a great time watching the river boat cruising along the Singapore River.
We were finally able to take a dip at the pool the next morning and both ZY and MW had a great time! ZY did not dare to slide down the pool slide but MW had great fun clowning around. ^_^
This two photos were taken at the same jacuzzi but one was taken when ZY was just 7 months old and the other taken 3 years later. How times fly..
 
Took this photo while ZY was enjoying her bubble bath. She proudly announced that it's her bubble clothes! ^_^"
Finally, we went to the Ellenborough Market Cafe for a buffet lunch as a sweet ending to this short staycation. The spread was not as sumptuous as before but we still managed to some how stuffed ourselves full, hehehe.
