ChillaxBBQ does kid’s birthdays now…

ChillaxBBQ does kid's birthdays now... Now there's a first. We had a brief from the clients Iain and Clair, that their daughter, Ottie, was turning 4 and she loves Jellyfish.

Baptism by fire. But we did it. We rocked (so we were told). So yes folks ChillaxBBQ does kid's birthdays now... Firstly to the crew; ...

If ChillaxBBQ did pizzas. Hold on, we do now…

If ChillaxBBQ did pizzas. Hold on, we do now... So my mate Ruthers and I are always looking to push the ChillaxBBQ model to the extreme. Recently we have been given the chance to take that up a notch with our first kid's birthday BBQ. She is 4 years old and likes jellyfish. Holy cow what to do? With the client, Claire, we agreed to try to do a seaside food diorama. A diorama that you can eat pretty much everything of. But also to keep the wee ones entertained how about we do a 'make your own ...

Kota 88 @ Siglap

Kota 88 @ Siglap Why have we never been to Kota 88 @ Siglap? It's been here a good few months now. Maybe it's because it sits next to what was Blooies that was not a favourite of ours. What was Blooies is now a fish restaurant so perhaps that is another reason? But tonight we went and now we all regret not having gone before. This place absolutely cracking, as in seriously good food and atmosphere. Believe me, guys this place gets mobbed. It was rammed last night. Huge family tables, as we did ...

Jewel @ Changi Airport, and lunch @ Tonito’s

Jewel @ Changi Airport, and lunch @ Tonito's When Singapore build stuff they truly do build it well.

Lunch @ The Bellevue Resort, Panglao Island, The Philippines

Lunch @ The Bellevue Resort, Panglao Island, The Philippines Today was the day that Amy and I get to take wifey to have Lunch @ The Bellevue Resort, Panglao Island, The Philippines.

And it is just a quality place. The staff are super friendly, the beach is exclusive, the views are stunning and for this blog, the ...

Saffron @ Amorita Resort, Panglao, The Philippines

Saffron @ Amorita Resort, Panglao, The Philippines The very first hotel I stayed in The Philippines.

Well, they are beach neighbours after all. It's a stunning place. ...
