Spending a Perfect Friday Evening at Marina Bay: Gastrobeats & i Light Singapore 2026

Gastrobeats 2026 - The People's Festival Let’s face it. Singapore can feel a little boring at times (at least for us). After a long, exhausting week at work, it usually feels like our options are limited to just another shopping mall or the usual dinner spots. GASTROBEATS 2026 - The People's Festival  So last week, I decided to shake things up for TGIF. My husband and I headed straight down to Gastrobeats 2026 . To be completely fair, I had one very specific mission in mind: the Coca-Cola booth. I am a massive Coca-Cola fan (hey Coca-Cola, if you’re reading this, wanna sponsor me? I can do a very good job you know!). But beyond my soda obsession, I just wanted a classic festival night filled with good food, thirst quenchers, and live music. It truly felt like a festival for the people. P.S. If you haven't been yet, you need to hurry! Gastrobeats ends this weekend on 28 June 2026 , so this is your sign to go before it's gone!

Food Review | HONGUO (Revisit)

I'm back for HONGUO again after almost 2 years. A real long hiatus. Well... you just gotta try something else till it brings you back where you start.

Simple dinner. Just one side. Enough to fill 2 hungry souls up.

Garlic Cucumber
Naturally, cucumbers are refreshing fruits (technically) to have on hot weathers, esp if you slice and put them in fridge for hours or till it is chilled. Here is a simple dish and kind of easy to cook too. Garlic, soya sauce and sesame oil in mixture, then pour over it. Or maybe put the cucumbers into the sauce mixture for absorption of taste. I shall do it at home myself. Interesting find.

Lotus XO Seafood Fried Rice
Right from the start, when we talk about seafood fried rice, I will first turn to their seafood varieties like prawns and/or squids. Sometimes, crabsticks. Then the freshness of their seafood. I give it a pass for their seafood items here. Lastly, I will turn to their rice. Fragrance and you taste the every rice grains. Flavourful, and top with some spring onion. That is how Fried Rice should be.

Lotus Chicken Chop Fried Rice
The last time we came for dinner at Honguo, my husband had this chicken chop fried rice. I shall not comment further on their rice because is the same as above. Here, we talk about the chicken chop. At the right texture, it tastes a little juicy but fatty. A little suggestion here is to cut the chicken chop further half, smaller pieces for easy consumption. The batter can be a little less to get the taste of chicken much closer with every bite.
