Merry Christmas! Happy Christmas! We have been to Sentosa this afternoon but there was nothing much to say about it. I will skip it for today as it is almost 3.00 am now. I am very tired. Let’s just talk about our Christmas dinner. We thought that we could have a nice dinner at the hotel’s restaurant but it was fully booked. A hotel’s staff told us that it would be hard to get a table in any restaurant on Christmas Eve in Singapore if we did not make any reservation. We walked to ION Orchard and found Nara Thai Cuisine, a restaurant that serves authentic and delicious Thai foods. The ambience was dimly lit with wooden furnishings making it quite cozy.

Nara Thai Cuisine Singapore Review
We ordered a selection of dishes with steamed Jasmine rice. The Tom Yum Kung was really good and had the right blend of sourness, sweetness and spice level, definitely a must try. We liked it so much. The Pandan chicken was well marinated and full of flavor. Everything was tasty except the desserts were a bit too sweet for us. Nara Thai Cuisine serve tiny portion and it was not enough for big eaters like us. The staffs were friendly and attentive. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience.

Christmas Eve at Singapore Orchard Road
We walked on Orchard Road after dinner. There were a lot of people. We did not wait until 12 o’clock because we were too old for that. First Christmas in Singapore is so so so boring but the decorations were really beautiful.
