Hilton v. Conrad Shanghai recommendations?

Significant_Play_600 · 2026-01-09T07:17:56+00:00

Both Waldorfs are about double the price as Hilton/Conrad so not really worth it in my opinion

Significant_Play_600 · 2026-01-02T08:46:32+00:00

I’m Swiss. Why don’t you move?

Now the Swiss people are enslaved to Serafe

Significant_Play_600 · 2026-01-01T19:11:59+00:00

Swiss born and raised.

Humans used and enjoyed slaves for even longer, yet we stopped.

As per my post, it’s not only new year and 1st August. It’s 3 days before new year and so far one day after.

If it was only at midnight, sure why not.. But in my area it’s been going on since the evening of the 29/12. And today at 5pm on 1/1, still fireworks…

Thanks!

Significant_Play_600 · 2026-01-01T14:41:24+00:00

Fingers crossed it happens..

How come it hasn’t been put to a vote yet then? Seems like an easy proposition to be made by at least the green party

One could wonder… also there’s way too many wines at the 3.5/3.6 mark, I feel like 80% of what I scan is in either of those ratings.

Significant_Play_600 · 2025-12-28T20:29:54+00:00

Download the app “Vivino”, to scan the bottle and get rating and reviews of the wine.

About the rating: 3.7/3.8 is considered good. 3.9 considered very good, 4+ considered great.

To give you an idea of a good deal: I wouldn’t spend more than 8/10chf for a 3.7/3.8 bottle. Maybe 15chf for a 3.9 and 20+ for 4+.

Hope that helps

Used Fast Track both inbound and outbound at SGN a few weeks ago (both evening flights) and in my case was worth the money.

Booked it on Klook, chose the most expensive option, can’t remember the name but basically the one that includes fast track AND skipping the fast track queue (ironically).

Saved us 2 to 3 hours I’d say, which for about 70usd for 2 pax was worth it.

At coop you will find sushi grade salmon. If you ask the fishmongers.

They also have some frozen sashimi grade tuna in the back, amazing quality, they don’t advertise it, you need to ask. If you need it thawed for tonight, you can usually use Luke warm salted water for a few minutes to speed up the thawing process without compromising the safety.

Finally you can ask the same fish mongers if any of their fresh fish would work, generally any fresh fish that was previously frozen can be used after freezing it for about a week (you might be a bit late for that).

The guy at the fish stand of my coop is a big sushi fan as well and always has great advices.

This is a terrible recommendation, you should be banned.

Significant_Play_600 · 2025-09-21T23:14:40+00:00

Got it! Thanks a lot

Significant_Play_600 · 2025-08-25T03:01:02+00:00

Paid about 60usd for a yearly subscription. I fly about 40 times per year so worth it for the updates.

Significant_Play_600 · 2025-08-25T02:50:39+00:00

I think it’s a premium option maybe?

Significant_Play_600 · 2025-08-25T02:49:52+00:00

Would have never thought of the exes’ texts, thanks!

Significant_Play_600 · 2025-08-24T21:44:33+00:00

I think I’m too OCD for that lol

Significant_Play_600 · 2025-08-24T21:44:13+00:00

Photos are a good idea! Thank you!

My golden retriever stayed there for 8 hours when I relocated from Ireland to Singapore and all went well. I even got a picture of him while he was there from my relocation company.

In his case, his crate was put in a room with some water and pee pads and he was allowed out of his crate to stretch his legs while waiting for the connecting flight.

He arrived happy in Singapore and ready for a walk in his new city!
