Dear All
There's a new shopping mall next to Singapore Expo called Changi City Point Mall.
We skipped the opening and past few weekends because of the various travel, then IT fairs at Singapore Expo. The carpark was full and traffic was lining the main road!!
So, after all the fan-fare and after all the exhibitions, we explored the place yesterday.
The queue to the car-park to the mall was terrible! Don't bother to park there! Best to take a train to the Expo station...the mall is just across and there's an underground pass. Otherwise, you can either park at Expo or illegally along the roads lining around the mall, as the other buildings are mostly business parks.
Dinner @ Spoon Soup....yummy hot soup on a cold "winter's" night :)

Testing my camera skills, heheh...
The mall is spacious. There's generous empty space for shoppers to move around. I wonder how long this luxury would last as past experience show how quickly little shop kiosks would take up these spaces very soon.
As the mall is near the airport, it's only 3 storeys high with 1 basement level.
Couldn't resist this candid shot of the kids & dad looking at more food after a hearty meal!!
It's a food paradise. Basement and level 1 are filled with food outlets. It also has 2 relatively big electronic outlets - Challenger and Gain City located just opposite each other, so that you can compare prices. There's also factory outlets like Adidas there. Bert checked out the factory outlet and says even after 50% discount still quite hefty.
Oh, did I mention there's a kiddie playground for kids shorter than 130cm too?
All in, quite a pleasant change in routine. We enjoyed our dinner at Soup Spoon with a promo family set which comes with 3 choice of soups, 4 buns, 2 salads, 1 potato wedges dish, 4 ice lemon teas and 4 chocolate muffins for just $34.90
The toilets are semi-open concept, a bit like our Zoo with an airwell filled with plants that's opened to the elements within the toilet. Since it was raining that night, a little rain was falling onto the basins. At least there's some natural ventilation :)
Within the mall are little glassed up airwells filled with water features like pond for children to walk through. As it was still raining, we just opened the glass door to have a better view but dare not walked in as the stone steps looked kinda slippery.
There's also a hotel wing construction going on. It will be connected to the mall in future.
If you want a new place to explore with your kids this Dec, visit this mall.
Love Theresa
