This is the first time visiting the new Vivo CIty since its opening in October. All the exam hypes and projects are hogging me up for the past few weeks, finally got chance to go there today when my exams are just finished.

First impression of the place — it’s big and filled with quite a few shops i have not seen in other shopping centres, like gap, desigual, and some other names which i forgot already :p

It seems like vivocity is very engrossed with its watery theme, the logo is, the internal design architecture also.

Got this wavy pillar

And the wavy ceiling designs

And there’s a very large roof-top garden cum playground at the top level.

Doesn’t look like it’s the roof-top of a shopping centre right?

There’s a very large below-knee deep pool spanning across the roof-top for children to play However, I don’t really like the colour of the water.

I don’t really think anyone would expect a lifeguard to be stationed there…….

There’s a marche coming up!

And a planet fitness gym at the balcony towards the sea, what a nice view for jogging, eh?

Got a few cafes at the balcony with great sea view, a good place to chit chat, relax or study, hmmm…..

A good view of sentosa from the balcony, and isn’t that the new monrail to sentosa?

A good view of the harbour at the right

And there’s even a playground, vivocity is so kiddy-friendly eh?

There’s a food republic foodcourt at the top level, with a very nolstagic 60’s theme.

All the stalls are designed like olden day food stalls; even the tables and chairs are the old wooden type. Guess what, the speakers are playing chinese classic oldies like ’shanghai tan’. Overall, atmosphere is good, the food is good but the food’s expensive…

There’s also a small division at the 1st storey with all the spanish shops like desigual, chocolat factory and also a barcelona fc shop. But the stuff are super expensive though, saw a jacket from the barca store selling at $308, and the price of the other shop is also above a 100 bucks on the average.

Last but not least, the cinema’s seats are rather comfortable and widely spaced apart between rows. Anyone can easily walk through without any difficulties.

btw, if you are driving there, i recommend you to take one of the leaflets near the escalator, it indicates the area where your car is parked. Me and my friends spent like about 20mins looking for the car, haha :p

Food Republic @ Vivo City - Lau Di Fang Saturday, 28 June 2008 - Written by anoymous Food Republic is one place I often avoid. The food is very expensive despite its wide variety. And the place is always packed with curious customers. It's always difficult to find a seat and when you are eating, people keep watching you finish your food and not mentioning people walking around brushing against you when they look for seats.    We are all sick of eating set meals. Thus my dad bought ala carte food from the curry rice stall instead of the stipulated set consisting of meat, vege & egg.     He ordered one vege side and a fish on a plate of white rice topped with curry gravy. He was charged $7.50.    The receipt read:    Vegetable x1 $1.00  Fish x2 $6.00  2 @ $3.00  Rice x1 $0.50  Total $7.50    Dad explained that he pointed to the chef in white cap an order of vege and an order of fish. However, the lady cashier counted the fish as 2 pieces simply because it was broken into 2 pieces when scooping it from the main dish.    As a typical Singaporean, we didn't really make a big fuzz out of it to avoid trouble. Dad just paid up unwillingly. We just swear that we won't ever go back to that stall that's all...    Poor me gotta hear dad's nagging all the way home.    Lesson learnt : Just stick with set meals. :( Reply / Leave A Comment  walao haven't got chance to go yet Wednesday, 06 December 2006 - Written by banghong1 too busy Reply / Leave A Comment  No wonder Thursday, 23 November 2006 - Written by KOG everybody is dicussing vivocity vivocity........  like it's becoming a fashion.

Finally I can see some different shops in Singapore.     If you go to orchard or somewhere else in singapore, you can only find most of the franchise shops, like levis, mango, zara, watson, delifrance, all the same!!     this vivo has its unique style, various shops with different design & deco... it's cool and fun!
