2. Rooftop Peruvian grill
Switch up your weekend plans with dinner and drinks at Tiger’s Milk, Singapore’s first Peruvian rooftop bar and grill.
Enjoy signature items such as Tiger’s Milk Trio of the Para Picar (small plates), where shots of seabass and octopus are served in three different variations of spiciness; Amarilla, Ricoto and Nikkei. For gutsy diners, be sure to try the Peru street delicacy, Lamb Heart, which is marinated in harissa paste and red wine vinegar, then served with salsa criolla.
Finally, end your night with a classic Peruvian cocktail like the refreshing and tangy Pisco Sour.

Can’t wait for Star Wars: The Force Awakens to begin? Then join Imperial Stormtroopers and the starfighter X-wing pilots in an action-packed exhibition at Changi Airport Terminal 3, where a life-sized X-wing takes centre stage, and the TIE fighter stands tall at Terminal 2.

2. Watch the epic return of Singapore’s #1 musical
Beauty World has seen multiple stagings since its debut in 1988, but this time, it’s back with a difference. The story follows a small-town girl from Batu Pahat who sets out on a quest to find her father in Singapore. She winds up in a dubious cabaret, where she learns some heartbreaking truths about love and life.
One highlight to look out for is actress Jeanette Aw, who has forgone her usual good-girl roles to portray the beautiful but vindictive cabaret queen, Lulu.
