Good morning guys! Back at it again with another vlog here in Singapore.
Today's a special day because it's Ann's birthday!
Happy birthday babe! It's our birthday today.
So today's really exciting because Jan and I are gonna do something a little unique here in
Singapore. We're actually gonna start off the day making our own perfume and cologne at this
workshop on Sentosa Island called Scentopia. And I'm really excited because I've actually
always wanted to try making my own perfume. I know that's so true. You've been wanting to do
that for a long time. So yeah we're starting off the day making our own cologne and perfume. Yeah
that's so cool. Let's go! Just a raw vlog today guys. I know you do enjoy these as well so like
we said we'll bring it back and here we are. Yeah starting it off with cologne and we'll probably
get thinner later. We'll bring you guys to that as well. That's gonna be a cool experience. Wait on it
because I mean you probably already know it's on the thumbnail. So yeah let's go start the day.
Another day here in Singapore. Happy birthday to you Ann. Happy birthday to you too.
All right so just like with any other day starting it off heading to the MRT station
because that is the cheapest way to get around Singapore. We've tried Grab and we've tried
another thing. It's so expensive.
All right so we're finally here. We didn't get too lost. We're getting used to it. So if you
want to go to Sentosa Island they actually have their own MRT station inside the mall.
Inside the mall. I think this mall is called Vivo City. So if you're trying to get to Sentosa
Island through MRT but you're in the city you'll have to get on an MRT to Harbour Front and then
from Harbour Front you get off you go to Vivo City Mall. On the third level they will have
their own Sentosa Express is what they call it. Since we have our tourist pass we can just use
that to get on the train to Sentosa Island. Yeah or you can do a cable car. So much more
expensive. Yeah like what we did the other day. Yeah. Let's go back to Sentosa Island.
All right so we are finally here at Sentosa Island. So this is where the perfume shop
or whatever it's called. Sentopia. Oh Sentopia. It's so nice here. So the MRT that you just saw us
get on that MRT actually takes you to a lot of tourist attractions here on Sentosa Island such
as Universal Studios. I think the Sea Aquarium as well. Yeah. They also have a cove water park here.
Sentosa Island is so cool. There's a lot to do here. So there's a zip line. There's a bungee jump. It's
basically like its own little mini resort. Yeah. Like your own island where you can do so much.
There's so many restaurants. There's resorts, hotels you know and lots to do. And a beach. Yeah and a
beach. So if you are staying here, you're lucky. It's beautiful here. Sentosa Island.
Ann wants to make her perfume from Singapore. I've never done this before as well. So
should be quite interesting. Okay so before we start picking out our scents, we were given a
Sentopia perfume personality test which is where we answer a few of their questions. First question
So the next step after we take our personality quiz, we come up here and this is where we're
gonna pick out our favorite scents to make the perfect one I guess. So this is the women's
section and then they also have a men's section. There are five categories. This is all citrus
scents and this is fresh scent. This is floral. This is wood scents and this is oriental scents.
I will start off with a citrus scent and basically. Pick which one you like. Yeah I'm just gonna pick
a random one and see if I like the smell. If I like the smell, I'll write down the number. That's
basically it. I'll just keep doing that throughout all the categories. We're starting off with the
It's very calming. They're all the same scent. Some are just stronger than others so if you feel
that this one is not as strong, you can pick one. Maybe this one. Maybe that one's stronger but it's
the same scent. This one's lighter. It smells good though. It's very light. I feel like you should go for
something more manly and citrusy. Wine. The wood scents. You want me to smell like cahoy?
Time to smell like a tree then. Do you like it? It smells like metal. A dude and a boss. Try that one.
It smells really good. Oh I like that. I think this is your section right here. Yeah I know.
Why was I going to the citrus? Cigar on a rocking chair. It's probably when I'm 80 or something.
Oh yeah it smells like a grandpa. Can I smell? Oh yeah. Oh yeah this one I'm a grandpa.
They also have black pepper here if you're hungry.
No it's to uh what is that is it called the palate for your nose too? Yeah cleanse your palate.
Yeah cleanse your palate. It's like coffee beans. It takes off the previous scent that you just smelled.
So this is what we came up with. We're about to smell it. I really like mine. Yeah mine smells.
Can I smell yours? Mine smells really good. Yeah it smells like you. Yeah that smells like you.
Okay so she took it now and she's gonna make it. It's so weird how like. It's just like the perfect
perfume for us after just picking our favorite scent. Like I actually really like mine. You're
gonna wear it like would you wear it every day? Yeah I would. Yeah. It's cool because I was like
what we're gonna mix it. This is gonna smell funky. Yeah because we were just like mixing
everything. Yeah and then once it's mixed she was like smell it. So we smelled it like oh what the
heck. It turned out. You made your perfume. Yeah now that's pretty cool. That was a cool experience.
And then here they have like the attractions of Singapore. So they have gardens by the bay.
That's so cute. The marina bay sands. The fountain. That's so cute. I'm actually gonna use mine.
We got our perfume and Jan's cologne. I was telling Jan just before coming to Singapore that
I wanted to start a perfume collection. Yeah yeah yeah. Like I wanted to start a perfume collection
and what I wanted to do was I get a perfume in each country that we visit and then I'll use it
the days that we're in that country while we're traveling. And so when I bring it back home and
then I smell the scent because scents bring you back to places right? Yeah. They bring back memories
so when I smell that scent I think of that country we traveled to. So I wanted to start that
but then I saw that they had a perfume making workshop so I was just like let's just make our
own perfume. So it worked out perfectly. Yeah so you got like from Singapore and you made it. Yeah
I basically killed two birds with one stone. I'm so happy with what we made.
All right guys so we are now here at Marina Bay Sands. This place is incredible. It's so
big. Oh my goodness. Like it's huge. Yeah it's huge. Oh my gosh. There's actually three towers.
That's how huge this place is. Whoever built this place is wow. Yeah. Engineering. Wow. Incredible.
Yeah this place is just nuts. But we got here a little early for Lavo. They opened at 12. Yeah.
It's only like 11.20. We got here super early so we're gonna walk around first. Check out Marina
Bay Sands and then we'll come back there when it's open at 12. We got here early because we're hungry.
We thought they were open earlier. Yeah for some reason I thought they were open at 11. Yeah. But
their Sunday brunch is actually open from 12 to 3 only. Their Sunday brunch. Yeah.
Couldn't wait. Couldn't wait. I know. We're excited for this. But yeah we're gonna walk around
see this beautiful place. Okay so we're just walking around. Honestly we wanted to do like a
one night here just to experience it. Yeah because Jan wanted to go to the iconic rooftop pool. Yeah
the infinity pool. Yeah but guess how much it is here per night guys. It's $800 per night. Dollars.
Dollars. So like 35,000 pesos per night. Yeah. Oh my goodness. So we're like do we really want to
spend that much on one night? Maybe one day. Maybe one day when YouTube pays. Okay so we're walking
at this is like their shopping center and man this place is expensive. Yeah they have all of
the designer shops like Hugo Boss, Rolex. Yeah. They have what else they have? They have Richard
Mill. They have. Yeah they have brands that I don't even know of but they're like designer.
Yeah. Like high-end. Very very high-end. Man sometimes like when we want to buy something
expensive we always tell ourselves oh maybe we can just use it for travel. We always hold back.
It's like oh but we can go here instead. Yeah I know. You know how much McDonald's we can get
that money? You know how many burgers we can get? Okay so they're finally open. It's 12 now so we're
about to line up. And look how many people are in line already. Okay so Lava Buffet is at the rooftop
at their highest floor. 57. 57th floor. Yeah. I'm excited for this buffet but I'm also excited for
the view. Yeah. So we're about to go all the way up to the Marina Bay Sands.
All right so we are here now at Lava so it's probably a little loud.
Yeah. But man this place is crazy nice. I've never dined in a restaurant like this before and
I just saw a glimpse of it and it's beautiful. Yeah we can't wait to show you guys the view.
And the food looks amazing. We passed by the buffet and like everything looks so good. So fresh.
Yeah. Should we show them the view now? Actually yeah let's start with the view. Okay we're gonna wait Mona
anyways for our drink. Let's go show you guys the view right now. It's so good. Let's go.
Look at this place. Oh my gosh. Look at the view behind us guys. So amazing. And the sun decided
to show up again. We can literally see everything. Rooftop vibes man. This is so nice. You can see
everything from here. Gardens by the Bay is right there. Let me show you. Gardens by the Bay right
there. We were right there on our first night and then the Flower Dome and the Cloud Forest Dome.
So cool. Like I have no words. Guys look at our view right now. Oh my gosh. Look at that.
Holy crap. I think this is the most insane rooftop restaurant I've ever been on. No same.
I mean that's why it's priced the way it is. Yeah you pay for the experience. Yeah you definitely
pay for the experience and this is so worth it. Yeah if you can't stay a night at Marina Bay Sands
at least try out one of their restaurants. They have so many restaurants here. They even have a night
club. They have shopping centers. Just come here for the day. Yeah experience it. And yeah they even
have the observation deck that we were supposed to actually do the rooftop observation deck but
we thought that since Lavo already has a rooftop of its own and a view, we're just going to do
this instead. Kill two birds with one stone. I'm imagining it at night with all the city lights
and stuff. I think it would be even more beautiful at night. We chose to do brunch because obviously
we wanted to show it to you guys. During the day. During the day. Yeah but I think at night it will
be just as beautiful if not even more beautiful. Yeah maybe we'll come back for dinner. Oh wow.
This is so beautiful. Love you. Love you baby.
Okay so we're gonna get food now. It's a buffet so we just go up there and get our food obviously.
So let's go see what the hype is all about. Let's go. I think we're gonna start it off
with dessert. Okay so first impression so far. The food just looks so fancy. So good. Yeah fancy
and good but it might look good but does it taste good. We're gonna get some appetizers first. It's
right here. I don't know what to do with this. Are they just for decoration? Yeah everything here just
looks amazing. He's gonna be a savage and take the whole thing. Gotta be fancy with the fancies.
So what did we get for our first uh I guess course? Honestly I don't know any of the names. It was just
a huge charcuterie board. Yeah it's a charcuterie board and I didn't really look at any of the names
so. Yeah whatever looked good. Yeah it's just so we got some tuna. Tuna, cheese, we got some meat.
Yeah we got some meat, some ham and yeah that's basically it. And then after this we're gonna get
the main course. The main course looks amazing. They have crabs, they have lobster. Honestly I wanted to
like dive right in but I wanted to try everything. Yeah I want to try everything you know. The tuna is so
good but I already expected that because we love tuna. We love raw salmon and tuna. Even the meat
so good. I'm not really a big fan of charcuterie boards. I like to look at them because they're
pretty but the meat is so good and the cheese as well. Oh yeah so far the drinks, the food and we're
just at the appetizers. This is nothing yet. This is nothing yeah we're just starting it off light
you know. You know us we love to eat so we're about to go bankrupt. Okay so we gotta stop playing
around and grab the real deal. No but that was amazing appetizers, pelang. Yeah. So so good. So right
now time to get the main course. Let's go. Let's get to the goods you know. Let's get it. I'm about to get my
money back out here. I'm gonna get some salmon with garlic butter. I got some salmon and the sauce is
so good. Did you get this too? It's like salmon. Okay so we got some seafood here. Their seafood section
is amazing. We got like lobster, we got some crabs, we got some mussels, we got some shrimp. Let's try the mussel
That's so fresh. Try the shrimp.
Look at that. This comes off.
We know that face already. That means it's good right? Huh?
It's already cracked. It was already cracked. Did they crack it for you? Oh yeah bud.
So one thing that we also did notice here at Lavo, the service is 10 out of 10. They literally
come to you as soon as you have a plate that you're not using anymore. If they see that you're
halfway through your water or your drink, they refill it right away. Service is so good here.
Honestly the thing for me is the view is just so amazing. Yeah. So for reference, if you guys are
wondering, it is a Sunday and on Sundays they do this thing called Sunday brunch and it's from 12
p.m to 3 p.m. It's called champagne brunch because it is bottomless champagne with booze. So it's
basically a buffet. You get the option of doing just the buffet, just the food with no drinks for
$98. If you do want the whole bottomless drinks and unlimited food, it's $168 per person I believe.
Look at this right here. All right so we didn't see this section.
Look babe, we didn't see it. Look there's more here. They have a cheese roll.
Good job baby. My last round. I got some lobster right here, some more mussels because it was so
fresh and I also got some meatball pasta. Okay baby so we've been here for an hour. Yeah. Do you
think it's worth the price? Yes absolutely. Why is that? It's not only the food that you get,
you also pay for the amazing service and you pay for the amazing view that you get outside and just
the overall experience. I definitely think it's worth it. If you have the extra funds, definitely
pay a visit to Lavo because not only do you get to explore Marina Bay Sands, it's an iconic place
here in Singapore but you get amazing food. Let's try the salmon first. I'm so excited. I'm glad I
found that area. Yeah. Cheers. Oh wow, let me get some more of this. Cheers guys.
It's not like completely raw, it's like smoked salmon. It's smoked salmon, yeah.
Wow. So good. Man.
They have two dessert tables. They have like this full-on dessert. They have pastries and
everything but then over there they actually have gelato which I'm gonna try out first.
This is so cool. Wow look at this. Unlimited gelato. This one is a chocolate tart with gold.
Blueberry cheesecake. That's good I think. We got some dessert. Their dessert looks amazing.
Oh my gosh. This is one of my favorite dessert. Oh yeah. Yeah right? Yeah. We even get that in the
Philippines. Yeah so it's an egg tart basically, right? Yeah. Let's try that one with the gold.
Look at this one. It literally has gold on top. Gold flakes. Oh my gosh, that's so good. Oh my
gosh. It's like dark chocolate. Jen loves dark chocolate. Babe, that is amazing.
Guys, that is delicious. Oh my goodness. That is so good. Oh my gosh. It's so good.
I love lemon. Oh my gosh, that's amazing. It's like a lemon tart
with marshmallow. Yeah, no, you're right. It's super soft. Like it literally just melts in your
mouth. Alright guys, so we just finished the Lavo experience. I rate it 10 out of 10. That was
amazing. I honestly think that it is worth it. Like I said many times in this vlog, you not only
pay for the amazing food but you pay for the incredible view that you get even when you check
into the Marina Bay Sands. You get the same view but amazing food and amazing service. I think no
matter what time of the day you go, you will still get an incredible view and I'm really glad that we
went during lunch because a lot of people may think that lunch is not as fun as it is in the
evening but lunch was really fun. Yeah. So as always, I hope you guys enjoyed this vlog. Don't
