Five things to do this weekend (Mar 5-7)

Time flies and it is already March. While there is still one more week to the March school holidays, there are plenty of things you can do to unwind while having fun.

Here are five things to do this weekend (Mar 5-7):

The annual Sakura event by Gardens by the Bay is back with Sakura Featuring Hello Kitty at the Flower Dome.

Walk through the traditional Japanese torii gate and snap insta-worthy shots with the fan-favourite Sanrio character. You can also marvel at the Sakura floral display which will feature Japanese red-crowned, cherry blossoms and peach blossoms.

The exhibition will be open from 9am to 9pm. Admission charges to the Flower Dome applies. Singapore resident adult tickets are priced at $12 for one conservatory and $20 for two.

With alcoholic bubble tea being the latest food trend, popular bubble tea chain Signature by KOI has jumped on the bandwagon with the launch of Rum & Raisin Earl Grey ($9.60) and VSOP Ruby ($14.90).

Both concoctions have an alcoholic content of two per-cent and will be available at all Signature KOI outlets. However, do note that you have to be 18-years-old and above (and not in your school uniforms) to purchase the drinks.

Local sustainable bookstore Thryft will be holding a book fair over the weekend (Mar 6-7) and bookworms will be pleased to know that there are over 2,000 titles to choose from.

The selection will span across various genres including art and photography, personal development, graphic novels and popular fiction. Visitors can also donate or trade in their old books for new ones at the fair.

The book fair will be held at Sprout Hub, 102 Henderson Road and opens from 11.30am to 5:30pm. All time slots for tickets are one hour long. You can sign up for a ticket here

Almost anything can be a pizza flavour these days. In fact, local food chain Pezzo Singapore and Irvins have collaborated to launch the salted egg fish skin pizza.

The limited edition pizza is layered with Irvins’ salted egg sauce and crunchy fish skin crumbs.

The pizza costs $6.90 for a slice and $35.90 for six slices. You can also purchase it in a food bundle ($28.90) which includes three slices of the salted egg pizza, two snack packs, four pieces of wings, and two cans of Coke.

This limited-edition pizza will be available at all Pezzo stores until Apr 30.

This March, myVillage at Serangoon Garden will be holding a Sun’s Out Fun’s Out treasure hunt where you can stand a chance to win up to $1,000 cash.
