Brewerkz Singapore - Brewerkz Riverside Point

Jolly Wolf and Frederic Fox are at Brewerkz Riverside Point. Brewerkz Singapore is an award winning microbrewery restaurant. Our previous Clarke Quay Singapore entry mentioned that we will visit Brewerkz and here we are.

This is the view of Singapore River from Brewerkz Riverside Point sitting at the alfresco on a lazy Sunday afternoon.

Brewerkz Singapore is a microbrewery restaurant, which means they have humongous barrels in the shop to brew their own beer.

Brewerkz Singapore occupies a massive stretch of shop houses at Riverside Point, the place is huge and can occupy hundreds of people, the biggest Brewerkz outlet in Singapore.

What beer do both of you wanna order? They have a wide selection of beer at Brewerkz compared to Paulaners Singapore where you only have dark beer or lager.

You can always ask the waiter what is the beer of the week and get additional discount for it. Beer of the week is steam beer today, not what we wanted, so we went on to order the great India Pale Ale and the popular Brewekz choice - Golden Ale.

Our Brewerkz beer came in a minute, talk about efficient service. The beer at Brewerkz Riverside Point cost different at different timings, to know more you can refer to the pdf file here.

Frederic Fox quickly jumped on top of the Golden Ale beer claiming his drink.

The beer on the left in a lighter color is the Golden Ale and the beer on the right is the India Pale Ale. Golden Ale is more of a sweet malt beer while India Pale Ale is a stronger bitter malt beer. Both are tasty beer and the most popular choices at Brewerkz.

Jolly Wolf and Frederic Fox came at the time where beer is cheapest at Brewerkz. From 12 to 3pm everyday, a pint (500ml) of Golden Ale only cost $6 and the India Pale Ale cost $7.

Nothing beats a cold refreshing beer on a Sunday afternoon sitting by the riverside of Clarke Quay.

Jolly Wolf and Frederic Fox will work for beer! We want to work for Brewerkz Singapore and get to drink beer by the riverside everyday!

Brewerkz Singapore is definitely a great place for a good Ale at a very reasonable price (depending on your time of visit). If you are there for the first time, order the Golden Ale, it will be hard not to like for its sweet refreshing taste.

Images of Singapore

Mini Frederic Fox takes you to a walk on a Sunday evening to show you some images of Singapore.

This is the old supreme court building of Singapore, now on the way being refurbished into a cultural arts center.

Looks like a soccer match is on at the Padang (field).

There are so many open fields in Singapore but only this green patch is called the Padang.

Frederic is now at a war memorial cenotaph at Singapore's Esplanade park.

The cenotaph was built in memory of the soldiers who died in World War I

The cenotaph war memorial was later dedicated to the Singapore residents who perished in the World War II.

Frederic Fox is passing by the Esplanade park on the way to...

Frederic Fox heard some music coming from the Esplanade outdoor stage ♪♫♪♫

Frederic grabs a seat and enjoys the performance. See you next time round on the Images of Singapore.

How to wash plush, soft toy, stuffed animals

How to wash NICI plush? How to wash soft toys? How to wash stuffed animals? Washing machine or hand wash? I'm sure we're not the only ones having these questions popping up our mind. Today we're gonna show you how to wash your beloved NICI plush, soft toys or stuffed animals.

Frederic is our nici fox plush today under the mercy of the water tap after having a sublime trip in Zhangjiajie & Guilin, China. Frederic got himself really dirty climbing the gorgeous Avatar movie mountains, so we decided to wash our beloved stuffed animal toy. First we put the fox plush in a small blue pail and here comes the water which is pretty warm in a hot sunny day in Malaysia! The method of washing our stuffed animal is hand wash + washing machine (the drying part).

NICI fox plush has drowned! *HELP* Don't worry, Frederic is just playing :-) Okay next, we mix the washing detergent into the water thoroughly. It is not recommended to add the washing detergent on your plush soft toys directly. You can also use soap for delicate clothes if you have them.

Hot springs in grassland! Our nici plush soft toy is totally indulging in his own paradise *read: day dreaming* This is the first time mini Frederic gets a wash, so just let our cute stuffed animal soak in his bubble bath for a while.

Soaking in soap of course is not enough to thoroughly wash your stuffed animal. Okay enough of your day dreaming Frederic. Next we rub our fox plush not-so-gently to remove the accumulated dust and dirt. Never use a brush! We'd only ever use a soft tooth brush while washing our Jolly Mah sheep plush.

Frederic Fox's tail is the part we're most concerned about as it is made of longer and softer plush than the rest of the shorter plush on his body. This is where we did a terrible job of maintaining our Jolly Mah's fluffy-ness when we washed our sheep soft toy, hence we are extra delicate here with our fox plush to ensure we don't repeat the same mistake.

After rubbing all parts of our stuffed animal soft toy thoroughly, we leave him in his bubble bath for about 10mins, not counting. Look how happy our nici fox plush is!

After that you need to come back and squeeze all the detergent out of your soft toy gently. Second step, we wash nici fox plush in a round of clean water and squeeze him dry again. You want to make sure all the detergent is out of your stuffed animal. Repeat the second step if you are washing a bigger plush soft toy.

 Frederic Fox is now a happy immaculate nici soft toy

NOT

If you want your stuffed animals to be extra soft and fragrant, be sure to do this final step before putting them in the washing machine dryer. A small amount of Softlan fabric softener to make your soft toy really fragrant and soft. Softlan Floral Fantasy is our favorite choice of fabric softener.

Note: You only need to add a little bit of Softlan just like this. It is mandatory to mix the fabric softener with clean water thoroughly before putting your soft toy or stuffed animals in it

We let nici fox plush soak in Softlan fabric softener for another 10 minutes or so. Frederic fainted from inhaling the extreme fragrance of Softlan. You can leave it for half an hour if you want or add more fabric softener, your soft toys will be even softer. We have tried that with our Jolly Mah sheep plush and realized that minimal amount of Softlan and soaking will do. After which, we bring our plush toy to tumble dry in the washing machine.

Frederic! Don't just jump into the washing machine like this. It is always recommended that you wrap your soft toy or stuffed animals in a thick towel to protect their plush. Either that or you can wrap your soft toys in a pillow case or laundry bag before putting them in the washing machine.

After a minute, we brought Frederic out of the washing machine and hung him up to dry. While hanging Frederic to dry, we keep rubbing and patting the plush on his tail to ensure it stays fluffy after the wash.

Our nici fox plush still looks very fluffy after the wash and his whole body is extra smooth due to adding Softlan fabric softener.

Frederic is a much easier stuffed animal to wash than the other nici soft toys like Jolly Mah which has really long and fluffly plush you must be extra careful of when washing them. 

If you are wondering how to wash plush soft toy like Milo Gorilla or those My Lovely Bears with thick and smooth plush, you may try the same method we did here.
Frederic's tail is still fluffy and very smooth because of softlan! Some NICI soft toys with dark colored plush like Hugo Wolf, we just spray Fabreze on him! We also love to know how you wash your soft toys and stuffed animals. Please comment and share!

2011 Closest Full Moon to Earth

The moon is freakishly full and bright tonight! We peeked through the window from our house and was amazed by the beauty of the moon. We took a quick shot with our camera, the moon is so bright it lightened up the sky where you can still see the clouds. Later we'll go out and see if we can get more pictures! If you have read the news, it says that today March 19, 2011 is where its the closest moon to Earth.


We went out to take a few more shots of the March 19 full moon. Notice the cloud changes very swiftly, so every time you see it'll be a little different. We actually did not know until just now that today is the closest moon to earth in 18 years. People are actually calling it Supermoon


Say hi to Frederic! How can NICI-Mania's pictures do without any NICI plush in it. If you're with your family and loved ones, hope you have a great time watching this supermoon tonight. We don't know how many years it will be until the next closest moon to Earth phenomenon. Enjoy your Saturday night!
