Alive Museum Museum (AMS)

I have heard many reviews about Alive Museum in recent weeks but have yet to visit the museum. So, when the opportunity arose, I jumped at the chance! 

Alive Museum is the original 3D visual illusion museum from South Korea. Aside from the 8 branches in Korea, it can be found in China, Thailand, Vietnam, Turkey, and of course Singapore! Alive Museum is located in Suntec City Mall (between Towers 3 and 4). 

Details are as follows:
Opening hours: 10am to 10pm
Ticket Prices: $25 (Adult) $20 (Children 3-12yrs)

From now till September 2014, you will get a free Burger Meal if you "Like" Alive Museum Singapore (AMS) and purchase a full price ticket! For more details on this promotion, visit http://alivemuseum.sg/news-events/promotions/.
What do I like about AMS?
  1. It has Pose Point and Photo Point icons at each art exhibit. If you have run out of imagination, just follow the Pose Point suggestion! And if you are not too sure where is the optimal spot to take a photograph, just find the Photo Point!
  2. It's worth a return visit as 30% of the exhibits will be refreshed every year and there are special exhibits held during major holiday seasons!
  3. Free wifi, which allow you to post all the pictures on Facebook immediately

==================================================
This is one of the participating restaurants under the Palate Card.
In order to be entitled to 50% discount, you will need to order 2 main courses and 2 diners.

We were excited to try out as this is a popular dim sum restaurant.
It has a nice fine dining ambience.

However, it not meet my expectations as I was expecting a finer touch to the dim sum. The skin of the dim sum is rather thick. There is no wow factor..





For dim sum, we ordered some of the specialties, i.e. 

  • Scallop dumpling with dragonfruit in salted egg yolk sauce 
  • Baked Abalone Tart
  • Custard Bun
