Pokemon Hunting Event || Chock Full of Beans (25 Sept 2016)

Went for the Pokemon Hunting Event organized by Tanjong Pagar CC which my friend asked me, along together with her friend (also a Pokemon go player). It's rather worth it since you only have to pay $5 (for passion card holders) or $8 (for non-card holders). Lunch is provided and this event brings you to 3 locations for the hunt - Changi Village, Woodlands Waterway, and MBS. Timing wise, it's from 9.30am to 6pm or so, with 2 hours spent at each venue. And something we didn't expect would be that goodie bags are also given to us, consisting of 2 bottles of water, one bun, poncho, and other items! Not bad right?

So anyway, our first stop is to Changi Village! 



Look at this!
Is this a new kind of pokemon? HAHA

It's funny how our pokemon hunting landed us at a cafe instead - Chock Full of Beans! We were just walking around trying to catch pokemon and suddenly we came across this place which we have all seen from social media but have yet to try - the 3D foamy drink! So viola~ there we are ditching the hunt and instead find ourselves seated at the high table browsing through the menu. 


Pretty crowded place!


Our cute little drinks!
Initially, we had thought that the 3D foam only for the hot beverages. But apparently, it's for the cold beverages instead! Too cute to destroy the foam:(


And as usual a dessert person, we ordered the Lava Cake with Ice Cream!
YUMMYYY!!
Doesn't it look like a smiley face smiling at you?


Photo together!
We are definitely going to come back here! Very soon~

And thereafter we headed to the next stop after trying to consume our provided lunch - Nasi Lemak, after being rather full from the cafe food actually :P 
We did tried our best since we do not want to hold on to the packet. haha. 

Next stop is towards Woodlands Waterway.. Definitely not a good place to go to in the middle of the day! Super sunny and hot with the sun just above. And there isn't really a air-conditioned shelter for us to hide away from the hot weather. Everywhere is pretty much open. How we wished that there's a cafe or something else that sells cold drinks/ ice cream at that point in time! So we were pretty glad when finally 2 hours is up and we get to board the bus and depart for the next location. Rather disappointing there due to the hot weather and on top of that, there's also not much catch over there in the middle of the day. I think there's more opportunity at night.

And the last stop is MBS - which we were dismissed there. MBS - Air-conditioned place and even if you are outside near the river, it's not as bad as compared to Woodlands Waterway! 
Overall, this event is not too bad I guess! Though I didn't get to catch any new pokemon that day. It gets harder since most pokemon you already have. Haha! 
Anyway, can really consider to participate in such events together with friends! :)
