Best chill-out spots in S'pore

By Tony Ng

We've asked for your suggestions on the best chill-out places in urban Singapore and you have answered.

Among the suggestions received, Upper Peirce Reservoir, One Rochester Park, Sunset Way and Chijmes seem to resonate with our readers.

However, three readers' suggestions stood out for their creativity and effort.

Avid forumer 8559 suggests a pristine place that seems to have withstood the modernisation of Singapore - Bottle Tree Village @ Sembawang.

8599 says, "The place will be good for a special family outing, with parents, kids and even pets, especially if you like taking a leisure stroll along the shore."

8559 also points out that the alfresco dining serves fine wine and good cuisine next to the sea and under the starry sky, ideal for couples.

Another forumer, ymun1375, says Dempsey Hill is one of his favourite haunts. The variety of F&B nooks provides an exquisite dining experience amidst lush gardens and soft-lit surroundings.

AsiaOne member Applecow suggests another alternative: "There is so much to do in the Lim Chu Kang area."

Applecow says Bollywood Veggies is a fantastic organic farm with its Poison Ivy cafe while the area is also a great place for animal lovers with its numerous dairy farms, fish farms and the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve.

These three forumers will walk away with the a Volkswagen Tiguan watch worth $120, crafted exclusively for the launch of Volkswagen's newest car in Singapore, the Tiguan.
