[INSIGHTS] Have lunch on us with RWS Invites
Dragging your feet to lunch? Tired of the same old dining options?

So here’s something sweet for all RWS Invites members – grab one paying friend or more and you can have lunch on us at seven of our fine restaurants from now till 31 July 2012. Just present your RWS Invites upon ordering.
Here are some highlights from each restaurant.
[INSIGHTS] 6 Ways to Master a Master Chocolatier’s Culinary Demonstration
Can’t say no to chocolates? That was exactly what happened when chocolate enthusiasts convened at Boulangerie on May 10 for French chocolate maestro, Chef Bruno Le Derf’s culinary demonstration. Armed with the recipe book, pens and cameras, guests were treated to an hour of chocolate tips, tricks, and tantalizing smells, before sinking their teeth into some of the most delectable and sinful chocolate creations (we know, we sneaked a bite too).
Here, we’ve put together 6 simple things you can do to make the best of any cooking show-and-tell.
[VIDEO] Voyage de la Vie – Costume talk with chief of wardrobe Claire Loh
Part of the fun of theatre is watching how the costuming and sets form the backdrop for the show. The Journey of Voyage de la Vie has seen an evolution of colours on stage, thanks in part to costume redesigns, for both aesthetics as well as for functionality. Here, chief of wardrobe Claire Loh shared a little of the work the wardrobe team of 17 does, her favourite dress, and how often the costumes get laundered (thankfully, often enough).
Catch Voyage de la Vie before the curtains close for the final time on July 16. For more information and ticketing, visit the website here.

[INSIGHTS] 5 Things to get Mummy this Mother’s Day
I remember the Mother’s Day cards my brother and I used to painstakingly hand-draw when we were children, and how mum would cherish them all. Just last year during the spring cleaning season, she unearthed a box that held all the cards we ever made her. Something about that box of archived memories spoke louder than any declaration of love or comfort that she could have given us, and I realize the greatest gift is an experience and the meaning behind the gift, rather than the physical gift itself.
With only a week left to 13 May, we’ve put together a list of experiences that you can get Mum for Mother’s Day, to show her how much she means to you.
