safra yacht club @ admiralty road west











if you love listening to the sound of the waves lapping on the shore and taking in the sight of our northern neighbour, you can do it at the safra yacht club. the club located at admiralty west is open to the public. as a non-member, all is required of you to gain admission to this place is to register yourself at the security post.

in the past, you had to surrender your identity card at the entrance to the army guards before being allowed into the base. today, there is no such restriction. some friends have celebrated their birthdays at the club before. i remember we had a bbq there to celebrate either jim or freddie's birthday.

the food is so so and the prices are quite reasonable. it is soothing to be seated by the side of the sea while enjoying your food. there is a bar and a karaoke lounge next to the restaurant aptly named gallery by the straits. my friend, who has eaten there, recommends the fish-head curry.
for entertainment, there is live music on friday, saturday and sunday's nights.

Another place with seaside restaurants, similar ambience, and reasonable prices is the Republic of Singapore Yacht Club. It is located in the west and non-members can also patronise the restaurants.

yes, that's another place i like to go and have a meal once in a while, just to enjoy the ambience. non-members have to make payment using the crdit card. once, when i was there, i saw the gypsy moth iv.
