Indeed this year is special for Singapore. For the first time in 50 years, all students and teachers in Singapore will get a special commemorative Singapore50 Lego set of three iconic Singapore landmarks specially customized and designed by Lego. These three landmarks include the iconic Changi Airport, Cavenagh Bridge and the Gardens by the Bay. The public can only purchase these SG50 Lego set after National Day (9 August).
Apparently for this set, you can only build one landmark at any one time.
Which one will you build?

The Little Prince Sculptures at The Fullerton Hotel
I was enjoying a solo night stroll from Tajong Pagar MRT station to Cityhall MRT station after attending the MAAD (Market of Artists and Designers) at the Red Dot Design Museum. On the way to Cityhall MRT station, I passed by the Fullerton Hotel to use their clean and posh toilet and was delighted to see The Little Prince sculpture near the entrance.
Written by French aviator and writer,Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900–1944),The Little Prince first published in 1943, is an inspiring story of how the Little Prince discovers the true meaning of life and his encounter with the stranded pilot. The Little Prince shared with the stranded pilot his encounters with different people like The King, The Businessman, The Conceited Man inhabited in different planets.
My favourite quote from The Little Prince,
"And now here is my secret a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye".

Seasonal Menu Crustacean Combo at Fish & Co
From March to June this year, Fish & Co is offering seasonal catch 3-in-1 combos namely the Crustacean combo and Omega-3 Power -up combo(mussels, cod and salmon). I had the crustacean combo which comprises a slipper lobster, three prawns and scallops. I like this dish very much as they already scooped out the slipper lobster meat and all you need to do is just dump the empty shell to a empty plate. Under the slipper lobster is creamy smooth mashed potato which taste really good. I be back for more.

Creamy sauce flows from the centre of mashed potato when I scoop it.
Prawn salad is one of my favourite dishes at Fish & Co.

Delicious SG50 Lobster Roll at Swenson
I had SG50 special Lobster Roll with chili crab sauce at Swenson recently. This dish is only available at Swenson Restaurant in April this year as it celebrates Singapore 50th birthday this year. Every month, they will feature a local dish with a twist.
I think this is the best lobster roll as I love the warm buttery grilled crispy soft bun filled with generous fresh lobster in spicy chili crab sauce. Sadly it is only available in April. The lobster roll is served with potato chips and garden salad. I prefer Bedok Mall branch as they allowed me to change garden salad to coleslaw. The other branch at Nex is not so flexible.

Yummy lobster roll!
