13. [Free!] Visit Ramadan bazaars
@thehoneycombers Here’s everything that you can get with $60 at the Kampong Gelam Ramadan Bazaar 🍵Gotcha Matcha (Booth number: MS12) | Pistachio matcha with Dubai chewy cookie ($15) The matcha was creamy and the portion was big, but we felt that the Dubai chewy cookie was overhyped. 🍝Gohed Gostan (Booth number: K20) | Steak carbonara ($15) The pasta was nicely seasoned and creamy. However, we wished that the steak was served in bite-sized cubes instead so that it’s easier to consume. 🐔Beef Roti (Booth number: K04) | Chicken roti ($9.50) A Chinese Muslim stall selling beef and chicken roti. It’s handmade on the spot, super crispy and the meat inside was juicy and tender. 🥔Supa Deck (Booth number: K22) | Mac and cheese spud ($8) A carb-lover’s heaven! Would recommend consuming it while it’s hot because it’ll get soggy with time. 🍵Broti (Booth number: K43) | Green milk tea ($6) A classic bazaar drink. We loved how generous the portion is and it isn’t too sweet. 🍉Coconut Sugarcane (Booth number: K13) | Watermelon lychee juice ($6) If you’re looking for a refreshing drink, you can’t go wrong with a fruit juice. 📍Kampong Gelam Ramadan Bazaar 📅Now till 15 March 2026 🕛Most booths start operating from 4pm #sgtiktok #ramadan2026 #sgfoodie #kamponggelambazaar #dubaichocolate

14. Now You See Me Live
If you’re a fan of the movies, this show is a must-watch. We loved how they found magicians and illusionists that reminded us of The Four Horsemen in the movies. And tricks like the Houdini-style water torture escape harkens back to scenes from the blockbuster, making us feel like we were transported into its universe.
The audience interaction has got to be the best part. From doing close-up tricks with members of the audience, to creating magic from throwing a massive balloon out into the audience, there were a number of unbelievable moments that made us feel like a part of the show. That, alongside the incredible on-stage feats made for an exciting show from start to end. And in typical Now You See Me fashion, they disappeared right befoe our eyes to conclude the show. If you’re looking for something wow-worthy for your weekend agenda, get your tickets to this show, we say
