These are the places that we started and finished the evening. The Kudeta (pronounce as for the military rebellion) is a night club. We went to a bar with the same name in Bali last year, who is apparently suing this place over the use of the name.
We went straight from the last museum to the restaurant which is a Mongolian buffet and BBQ place. There we met up with some other who did not take the tout - many locals plus otehr who had seen Singapore before and did their own thing.
There was an impressive array of food. My first pass had only crab dishes - chili, black pepper, breaded claws and deep fried baby ones. there were also multiple dishes with prawns, scallops and other seafood. After I got past that (and washed up), I had a BBQ course. This is cooked by a chef on a very large, round flat plate but you choose which meats vegetables and sauces you want in your dish. I skipped soup altogether. There were also traditional stir fry type dishes and a cold meat and salad bar. Desserts included fruit, icecream and marshmallows, which were most often put on a skewer and then covered with chocolate from the fountain. Needless to say, I won't have lost any weight on this trip.
Usually the final event is a party, either in someone's room or a conference room in the hotel. The former was originally planned but at the restaurant there was a general consensus that we go to the night club instead. I still came back to the hotel with a couple of others to freshen up and change and we headed over around 10 pm. This was on the top of the "boat" building we saw earlier from both the gardens and the bay and is a posh resort. Sunday is a free entry night and usually there is a cover charge. It was still pricey and i limited myself to one $22 cocktail.
The views were stunning so that is partly what you pay for. From the club itself, you had a view of the bay and the city skyline and from the other side you could see the gardens.
I headed home with a couple of others around 1am. Taxis are pretty cheap here with the 2 trips and the one back from the IT mall the first day all well under $10.
