We had a list of "stuff" we "needed", so we decided to head to Ikea, which isn't too far away from our house. To sum up the experience, here's the quote of the day from David:
"The only thing worse than Ikea on a Saturday is Ikea on a Saturday in Asia."
I'll have to add, that even worse than that, is having to go back twice for missing parts. We bought a desk, but had failed to buy the legs which inexplicably came separately. We also assumed (incorrectly) that by waiting until 8pm, the store would have calmed down a tad. It was actally more crowded - so much that we had to wait in line to get in to the parking ramp. David swore he'd never go back again. I was just exited to qualify as an "Ikea Friend" - free sodas!
Yes, they basically have the same stuff at the Ikea Singapore store - furniture and room set ups on the main floor and all the accesories on the bottom floor, but the menu in the food area is a little different:
For example:
Curry Noodle A portion of spaghetti noodle in curry gravy, served with 2 pieces of potatoes, app. 120g of boneless chicken leg, fishcake and a whole egg.
Nasi Goreng A portion of fried rice with green peas, onions and egg, served app. 120g of fried chicken, otah fish cake and fish cake, with sambal tumis chilli, tomato ketchup and cucumber slices on the side.
Did I mention that I now get free sodas???
