8 RESTAURANTS IN SINGAPORE WHERE KIDS EAT FOR FREE


Despite having such tiny stomachs, kids’ meals can sometimes be expensive – especially if you have a small eater who is notoriously fussy and never clear a plate. As a matter of fact, “Kids Eat Free” is often music to the ears of parents.


There aren’t a lot of restaurants offering free meals for kids nowadays. In fact, the numbers are getting a lot lesser now than few years ago. I don’t understand why. If I’m a restaurant owner, I’ll definitely offer “Kids Eat Free” because it’s the best promotion to attract families and show appreciation for my business. After all, kids deserve to be happy and have yummy free meals to eat.
 
 
The good news is – we’ve scoped out the few remaining restaurants in Singapore that offer free meals for kids, from pizza and burgers to a full blown lunch buffet. So, check out this list now …

7 TIPS THAT WILL SAVE YOUR ASS FROM GETTING FLOGGED IN SINGAPORE

Some travel tips are “just useful” meaning that somebody can take it or leave it unheard. But, as long as we are talking about laws, it’s serious and you can’t roll your eyes like “err, whatever.” You know Singapore still does floggings for punishment, uh? Singapore has a damn hard-core law system.

If you don’t want to end your travel in tears, now pull your chair in and keep your eyes open throughout this page. 



1. No smoking under an air conditioner (1,000 SGD)

Smoking a cigarette indoors takes 1,000 SGD fine, which is 740 USD. But, it’s not that the whole city is cigarette-free. Ashtrays are here and there around the street and you can smoke at the designated smoking areas. So, don’t get antsy too much. Calm down.



2. No drinking any beverages on the public transportation (500 SGD)

It will fine 500 SGD. Hygiene is like a virtue in this country. When in Rome, do as Romans do. But, you know what though? You won’t use public transportation for that long anyway because the size of the country itself is quite small.



3. Illegal trash dumping or spitting (1,000 SGD)

No wonder why the streets of Singapore are so clean. Not many countries would fine for spitting, but many of us would hope our countries are clean like Singapore.



4. Possession of gum (1,000 SGD)

You don’t need to go back to check if it was gun. It’s still G-U-M. In Singapore, nowhere sells gum and nobody is allowed to bring it in from overseas. Chewing gum is, out of question, illegal. The gravity of gum chewing violence is on a par with illegal trash dumping in Singapore. Why? The former prime minister of Singapore back in 1992 once pointed the finger at gum chewing for a culprit of the squalid street. 

Since 2004, gum for medical use has been available. But, it’s hecka hard to get or sell one. Someday, they may have a “gum control” issue in the future. Who knows?



. Leaving un-flushed in toilet (150 SGD)

In Singapore, you won’t get disgusted by someone else’s unsightly trace in the restroom. When the hard work is done, finish strong and flawless.



6. Things to check up before getting on a bus

The mass rapid transit system in Singapore is nicely designed. But, it isn't perfect because Singapore buses are not kind enough to announce at each bus stop. So, check in advance how many bus stops you need to pass up to your destination.



7. Taxi fare gets different depending on the color of vehicle

Wikipedia
In Singapore, blue, yellow and red ones are normal cabs charging 3~3.40 SGD at the basic rate. White limo cabs charge 3.90 SGD and Black Chrysler, 5 SGD. Don’t lose your shirt on cabs. Be smart!
