Call us turtles but we just discovered this really cool bubble tea shop started by a local entrepreneur which sells Pei Pa Koa Bubble Tea!
For the uninitiated, Pei Pa Kao is a traditional Chinese natural remedy used to relieve sore throat and coughs. It is thick and sweet like honey and the aftertaste leaves a hint of peppermint.
Here’s how the Pei Pa Koa looks like..
Refreshing!
The Pei Pa Kao Bubble tea we want to introduce is known as the Herbalmint Bubble Tea, which coincidentally (or not) is also the best-seller drink for the company.
A regular-sized drink costs $4.10, while a large-sized one costs $5.80.
These are the outlets to get your Pei Pa Koa Bubble Tea:

After Mcdonald’s Singapore introduced a Japanese themed menu in July, they are set to wow again with two new items on the menu.
This burger has a breaded shrimp patty topped with roasted sesame mayonnaise and fresh lettuce.
The Ebi Burger is available in either the choice of single or double patty.
You have probably heard about this new dessert by now. Afterall, this white chocolate strawberry cream pie post went viral shortly after Mcdonalds Singapore posted it.
Try it later and let us know if it’s worth the money and calories!

This year’s Halloween is going to be special with Asia’s first ever zombie survival game that will happen on 26 October 2019 at the National Stadium.
During this day, the National Stadium and the area outside it, will be transformed into a mega play area with zombies taking over the land.
Most of the players start as survivors. They run around the premise completing quests sent to them via a mobile app to earn virtual coins. These coins can be used to purchase items from a black market within the game.
However, they have to do all these while avoiding the zombies. Once a zombie tags a survivor by touching him/her, that survivor has to hand over his/her dog tag to the zombie. The survivor then proceeds to a makeup room to get a zombie makeup done and continue the game as a zombie.
As time passes by, the zombie hordes grow and surviving gets harder. The aim of the game is to survive not being tagged by the zombies during the 3.5-hours play time.
This is the handphone app that survivors must download to play the game. At the beginning, survivors must choose a team to join and to complete quests as a team. (Think Pokemon Go teams)
This handphone app also gives real-time updates of the zombie and survivors count.
Here’s the official trailer to get you excited:

When: 26 October 2019
Sessions: 12PM & 6PM
Cost: Individual survivor ticket – From S$60
