Formula 1 Grand Prix Singapore 2010 – Nothing else comes close
And the sounds will roar yet again in Singapore, the only host country of the World’s First Formula One (F1) Night Race for two consecutive years – with the third one in the making! Sleek and fast race cars will flood the area, and make your dreams of the F1 grand prix come to life. If you already have tickets to the race, then sit back and relax while we bring you the sights and sounds you should not miss in this whole spectacular event.
For S$2, you could purchase the survival kit consisting of a pair of ear plugs and a poncho. It could save you from having to stand in the rain (if it rains), and prevent you from becoming deaf due to the loud revving of cars, screeching of tires, a small crash incident or maybe, just maybe, shouts and screams from adoring F1 fans.
Besides the roaring and fiery cars, you have to take care of your rumbling tummy of hunger. And so, we also go that extra mile to bring you some good eating places to visit while you are enjoying your trip to Singapore. We understand that you all have gone through much trouble to locate the best vantage points for your memorable picture shoots and so now, let us do you the honour of being your eyes and legs, while we bring you the best this small host country aka the little red dot has to offer.
1. Imperial Treasures at Marina Square
Famous for its “Xiao Long Bao” or soup dumplings, this quaint Chinese Restaurant has much to offer. Ranging from a full course meal to just snacks and yummy “La-Mian”, visitors wanting a taste of Chinese food with a hint of local flavour, this is the place to go to.
2. My Humble House at the Esplanade
Craving for contemporary Chinese cuisines? Look no further than My Humble House at the Esplanade. Headed by Chef Sam Leong, what more could you ask for? He is definitely a big name in the industry and since you are already in Singapore, why not drop by the restaurant and give your tastebud a fresh, new surprise? Go on… Don’t be shy.
3. Overeasy at Theatres by the bay
If booze at the F1 area is still not enough for you, do make a trip to Overeasy just at the Fullerton area. Serving till the wee hours of the morning, you would be ensured of a constant flow of alcohol with steaming hot food waiting for you when you are there.
4. Muthu’s Curry at Suntec City
Feeling game to try Indian food? Take a short leisurely stroll to Suntec City and immerse in the strong aroma of authentic Indian curry! Hot and spicy are words to describe them. And if you feel like trying out to be a Singaporean for a day, say “saappadu rusiya irukku”! (Yummy food in Tamil)
5. Satay at Lau Pa Sat (Old Market)
Located in the heart of the CBD (Central Business District), this market sells really delicious food and may we say value for money! Mostly crowded during lunch hours, the long wait is still well worth it. Something not to miss is the many satay stalls, easily identified by locating the satay man using his bamboo fan to control the flames – perfect satay. “Sedap”!
And as a visitor to the F1 night race in Singapore, you have additional privileges or discounts to some of these places. Do remember to bring your F1 pass wherever you go!
Although all these notes are still a little early to you, good things get snapped up fast. So we help you to get prepared… And let’s count down to the F1 Singapore 2010 – where nothing else comes close!
