flyingirl

Hi there thanks so much for the heads up. :beer:

Your answer to Which is not an up and coming attraction at The Marina Bay? is wrong. It is not The International Cusine terminal but the Universal Studios which is going onto Sentosa Island (not anywhere near Marina Bay).

I didn't check on the fish head curry question using the link although my gut answer was South Indian. If someone is working their way through these questions, do check it first!
