Lava Edge @ Changi City Point {Foodee}

Well it’s Friday again! Whoop de doo! Do you have any Friday night plans? Good food, live music, Jager bombs? Perhaps I can suggest a place, the one we went to last Friday for our quarterly team dinner. It’s called Lava Edge. We chose the venue because it had all that we were looking for – live band, affordable food and drinks – and it was within walking distance from our office in case some of us had to work late. We’re practical, you know?

Lava Edge is at the edge of Changi City Point. (See what I did there?) I’ve passed it several times but it was my first time to actually step into the restaurant-bar. It was surprisingly large and nicely decorated, with that whole lava theme going on.

We were seated on high tables and chairs towards the back but we could still see and hear the band clearly. Those are my colleagues smiling at the camera. Behind them is the live band singing a bunch of songs we actually know, some of them new and some of them from our youth like Spice Girls songs. It set the perfect mood for a relaxing, fun Friday evening.

I got to try a bunch of different dishes and I liked them all except the mussels and oysters which tasted like the sea. Well I suppose that is where they came from but did they really have to be that salty? I liked the spaghetti bolognese, which I didn’t take a picture of. I loved that it was not too sour. Below are pictures of food that I did get to snap.

Buffalo chicken wings – om nom nom!

My favorite dish was the baby back ribs which was actually Mildred’s order. Here is a picture of her looking shocked at its size. She didn’t expect it to be that big. The next time I go back this is definitely what I’m ordering! But it’s so big that I need to share it with someone. Maybe Dred.

Whoa! So big!

Though we were happy enough with the food and music, our favorite moment of the night came when we discovered Jager bombs. One of our colleagues ordered and one and let us try it, and we were hooked by how yummy it was! A Jager bomb (pronounced as yey-ger) is a bomb shot cocktail mixed by dropping a shot glass of Jagermeister into a glass of Redbull energy drink.

A bunch of us decided to order a round. When the waiter served the drinks, they lined them up on the table like so:

And then our colleague Gopi flicked the first shotglass at the head of the line and it knocked the other shotglasses into their respective glasses, like a domino effect. It was an awesome spectacle to watch and if you don’t believe me, just look at my collegues’ facial expressions in below picture. LOL!

Unfortunately nobody remembered to take a video of it, so here is another Jagerbomb train video that I found on Youtube to show you:

We just found a great Friday night hangout for people who work in Changi Business Park! See you there, eh? Find out how to get there through their website.
