 When the menu in a western restaurant begins with a pig’s ear dish, connoisseurs will immediately wonder if it has something to do with the British chef known for his philosophy of “nose to tail” eating. Take a seat at Osia from 24th to 27th April and you’ll experience the culinary pleasures brought to you by one-Michelin starred chef Fergus Henderson.

[INSIGHTS] How to maximise your enjoyment at a pool party

There’s nothing quite like a pool party, a hedonistic experience which one may not recall much come the morning after – especially when it involves lots of booze. What about free booze? That’s definitely the icing on the cake for the guests who attended last weekend’s Splash! Liquid Buffet at Hard Rock Pool. The RWS Invites event sampler provided a glimpse of what RWS Invites members can enjoy.

We braved unexpected splatters of water, ear-shattering party music and a very huge beach ball to dish some tips on how to have a splashing good time at a pool party.

Get wet!

What’s a pool party without getting yourself wet? Before going to a pool party, remember to pack your coolest beach gears because you’ll never know how things can get more competitive than a catwalk show. Besides, you want your board shorts or bikini to look their best in front of flashing cameras.

You’ve probably done this before.

While surfing on Youtube, you come across random videos of aspiring musicians. And you click on the play button, thinking it’ll provide you with comic relief like the audition rounds of American Idol. But just that one or two odd times, you  end up with your mouth slightly agape, marveling at the singer on the screen with that soothing soulful voice , and wonder why he or she’s not discovered by some major music producer yet.

[INSIGHTS] At RWS, a red carpet affair with Housefull 2

Gazing at the beautiful people and their even more beautiful outfits that grace red carpet events on television is a different exercise from seeing them walk by right in front of you. For one, it’s not all about the glitz and glamour as you’d have expected, as experienced from the red carpet event world premiere of Housefull 2, a Bollywood blockbuster comedy directed by Sajid Khan.

The calm before the storm.

[FOOD] Resorts World Sentosa hosts World Gourmet Summit 2012

I remember the year the annual World Gourmet Summit (WGS) brought in Ian Wright, the host of Globe Trekker on Discovery Channel. Titled ‘The Food I Like’, Wright regaled guests with fascinating travel stories, including the time he ate cooked cockroaches. When an ‘irreverent’ guest decided to query how the dare-devil landed his job, Wright’s rebuttal of “bugger off and go find your own work” left many in stitches.

WGS has introduced to this part of the world many Michelin-star chefs and made people excited about food. Ian Wright has done that with a pinch of entertainment and others with more culinary flair. This year, WGS 2012 is coming to Resorts World Sentosa. We’re the official premium hospitality partner which means RWS will be hosting many of its events in our restaurants and pssst, exciting venues like along New York Street and in Stage 28® at Universal Studios Singapore®.
