Horsecity

Yesterday we went to Horsecity. It’s just off Dunearn road, not too far from where we live.

The first time my husband and I came to Singapore, we lived close to Horsecity, at that time it was called Turf Club if I’m not mistaken. It was like living in the middle of nowhere! I remember there was nothing there, just empty spaces and a rundown shopping centre, but nowadays the place is bustling with activity. There are many things that you can do there… Eat out, yoga, capoeira, gymnastics, tennis, golf for kids, and horse riding, of course. There are also futsal courts, a spa, a dance studio, an art studio, and the rundown shopping centre has been completely refurbished. It is now called The Grandstand and it has a lot of cafes, restaurants, interesting shops and activity centres.

Unique Seafood Market, The Grandstand, Turf City

In our last post about soap making class, we mentioned something about a “nice surprise” on level 3 the Grandstand… So, what was it?

Well, we found a seafood market! We didn’t expect to see anything there actually, since we came out from the lift and found ourselves in a warehouse-like area of the building… But we walked around a bit and suddenly saw a lot of big aquariums stacked until they almost reach the ceiling.

Soap Making in Turf City

Today we went to the Grandstand, Turf City, to have lunch and make our own bars of soap!  We went to Turf City some time ago and we found a place that offered soap making classes for children and adults, but we didn’t do it at that time. This time we decided to try it.
