Check this out…was invited down to Google Singapore’s Holiday Gathering and Open House last Thu (yup, when MRT decided to break down) at their new digs at Asia Square – part of the new buildings at the Marina Bay Financial district.
Google hired the same photography group that took those instant-print photos at Wenqing’s wedding! Below is me taking a photo of Willy taking a photo of me. Haha!
I found it so cute that they named their staff restaurant canteen ‘Goopitiam’ which is in reference to our Kopitiams (coffee shops). I am soooo jealous of it though. Imagine – free lunch everyday? They also have cans of lemon tea, soda, coke, litres of soya bean milk, Snapple and even a machine that squeezes fresh orange juice! Heard from my salesperson that the kitchen serves porridge and other foods in the mornings.
Wine, pistachio ice cream topped with candied peanuts with candlelight setting amid the Goopitiam’s other lighting. Both were yum. 🙂
Sir Stamford Raffles the rap star/ graffiti artist? I guess he was one of the pioneer men to stand with his arms folded in the super cool manner.
Now…we come to their massive kitchen. That’s just the dining portion. I already had major kitchen envy so…let’s just say that the portion with the fridges, microwave, dishwasher etc is larger than my bedroom and parents’ bedroom combined. Imagine.
Although I didn’t win any prizes that evening, I had fun and am looking forward to next year’s Holiday Gathering!! 🙂
