yesh, pls do so. -
I was working there part time for a month before its opening. Don't bother hanging around lvl 1 to 4 unless you're feeling rich. haha
The nutmeg sculpture I heard from one management staff, it costs 700k, not sure if its true anot.
I have one particular grunt about that mall, the entrance and exits for vehicles is FLAWED! The loading bay, taxi stands, visitors parking lots and residential parking all exits towards one road, Orchard turn.
And that road definately needs to be widen as there is a bus lane there too. There is a problem with heavy vehicles exiting the ramp due to a road divider in the middle. Turn the wrong direction and you'll end up passing an ERP gantry.
I'm waiting to see how LTA decides to widen the road as ION and Wisma is on one side, and theres a private residence on the other side, quite a squeeze. LTA might remove the bus stops and bus lanes completely.
But it is worth a visit... cos theres dunkin donuts!!

all opened liao ah?

They'll never forgo the bus lane, cos that's needed for those heading to Scotts RdI'm not inclined to believe they forgo being practical over traffic matters for nice design. End up now need LTA, TP to be station there

just went there yesterday. high end shopping for rich peeps. I shopped for caviar in the high end super market. they actually hired jap peeps to sell their sushi in the supermarket. I didn't exactly went up to them and asked "hey are you jap", but they look, sound, act like Japanese peeps.
-
Didnt explore the entire mall.... will do so next time.
Damn crowded.
-
ion was okay.. now burberry has a proper mens collection too.
no versace / gucci / prada mens :( (unless i missed it)
waiting for DG to open. (sept)
the food was dissapointing, i'd read that theres 30 restaurants, maybe they counted the basement food stalls? (like plaza sing /bugis basement that kind) and theres 1-3 european places. all asian food :(

they had interesting seafood etc, reminds me of meidi ya at clarke quay.
hard to make money selling expensive perishables
i went on the 22nd and it wasn't crowded already.
hope sg's TEN new malls and ir and sg flyer can pull through the world's bad shape now
-

The shopping mall is for those high class 'tai tai' want, from my observation, don't you guys think so? All the shop are those branded company etc. LV.
Anyway i rate the shopping mall 3/10 for the overall shop.. -
yea.Only rich people go in with something on their hand.Can say 90% is see see look. is like paragon just that it nicer and bit more convience and high class=)

the upper levels are mostly for the high end peeps. i didn't explore the basement as i was rushing home, but i read from a blog that the basement is for more causal shoppers. like those shops at plaza sing
-
If you aint rich, going there is really boring. Went there last week & it only seems that the basement is worth 'touring'. Lots of Japs food~
-
Can go there and see fashion handsome dudes.
-
yah. alot of high end stuffs. no money don't go.
-
Heaven and Hell design concept.
Upper floors very spacious, basement all cram.
-
Anyway i saw Chen Tai Ming & Li Nan Xing that day lol
-
lol heaven and hell. sounds a bit insulting. =x rich people go to heaven.. poor peeps go hell hahahahha
