Well here is the planning thread for the 2013 SIN DO. I've got a lot of details to plug in, but here is the sparse outline. I've already got my hotel booked and will be getting a flight in a few days.
Pre-Do: If anyone wants to grab dinner from 1/13 to 1/16
infoworks will be in town early and will happily meet up with other FTers for dinner at a kopitiam in Chinatown that I like.
Thursday: Dinner at
8:00 and drinks for those that arrive early.
Sun with Moon Japanese Dining, around Wheelock Plaza
6 Eu Tong Sen Street, Singapore
Possible mini-bar party afterwards.
Also, depending on interest, possibly a late night hawker center to meet up with those arriving at midnight. This will be at Newton at Midnight.
Friday:
Lunch at 1:00 PM: Glory Catering
139 East Coast Road Singapore 428829
Drinks at 7:00 PM: This will be at
Mogambo (#3 Canton Street, Boat Quay, Singapore). It's the same place as last year which had a good setup outside for everyone to meetup.
Hawker Center Trip at 11:00 PM: This will be at
La Pau Sat, which is different than the last 3 or 4 years. This place is pretty happening at night. This is going to be on a rough timeline with epople heading over anytime from 11-12:30, but for those in town ahead of time, I would suggest if we all aim for getting there no later than 11:30 PM so we can grab enough tables.
Saturday:
Day Trip to Bintan Island: There are ferries that leave Singapore Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal at
9:10 or 11:10 AM. The return ferry leaves for Singapore at either 3:35 or 5:35. You lose an hour on the way there, so you get into Bintan about 2 hours after you leave. If you would like to go on this side trip, PM me because I'll schedule this around when the most perople will be able to attend. The ferry ticket is $70 SGD for a round trip and the Indonesian visa is $25.
Saturday Lunch (12:30 at DB Bistro Moderne): lowjhg is organizing this. This is located at Marina Bay Sands and the cost is around $25-40 SGD for the main entree.
Afternoon beers at Clark Quay if time permits.
Dinner 8:00 PM: This will be at the Long Beach UDMC East Coast Seafood Center location. Note the address below, because there are two locations that are considered the Long Beach at East Coast Seafood Center...
Long Beach UDMC Seafood Restaurant
1202 East Coast Parkway, #01-04 East Coast Seafood Centre
Tel: 6448 3636
Drinking time at the Grand Hyatt afterwards.
Sunday at 10:00 AM: For a morning event, this will be a different trail than the canopy walk the last two years at MacRitchie Reservoir Park. If anyone is interested in a run there, let me know. I would suggest we all meet up at the Hyatt at 10, and head over from there.
Lunch at 1:00 PM: Muthu's Curry on Race Course Road. I am 90% sure we'll do this, but will post any changes.
Dinner at 8:00 PM: Straits Kitchen at the Grand Hyatt. The cost is around $60SGD for everything.
Monday:
The Post Do in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam begins going from 1/21-1/23.
