Whether or not you’ve got a bae to spend Valentine’s Day with, here’s something everyone can enjoy this February regardless of relationship status: Good deals. Most of what we have this month is for food – which is just as well, since we can’t say no to tasty bites – but there’s also a karaoke promo and a mega baby fair for the parents out there.

Have a relaxed afternoon nibbling on Thai-style high tea at Baan Ying, a Thai restaurant hailing from Bangkok itself. While normally priced at $38.80 for 2 persons, there’s now a 1-for-1 deal that lets you enjoy the tea set at the same price for 4 people – which works out to the very affordable price of just $9.70 per person! Looks like our tai tai dreams are coming true after all.
Included in each set are a mix of sweet and savoury bites like chicken wings, prawn rolls, and heart-shaped mango sticky rice cakes. Each person will also get one drink to wash it all down with.

The grand Alkaff Mansion has recently reopened, and with that comes a bunch of fancy new dining options as well. One of them is TXA Pintxo Bar, a Basque restaurant serving Spanish tapas on skewers known as Pintxos.
Fret not if you’d rather have one hefty meal instead of many small bites, as they also serve a selection of mains and steaks.

Channel your inner Beyonce with a karaoke session at Manekineko, which is currently having an ongoing $1 nett per person per hour deal. Yup, you read that right – just $1 per hour!
Before you get overexcited, here are the T&Cs:
Taking all that into consideration, though, it’s still a comfortable $8 per person in total for a good 3-hour singfest and all the munchies and thirst-quenchers you could ask for. That’s still cheaper than other KTV joints which don’t even offer any snacks.
Promotion period: Ongoing

There are so many new bubble tea stores opening up these days, it’s hard deciding on which to try next. But matcha lovers should make a beeline for TP Tea, as they’re having a 2 for $5 deal on their Matcha Latte (U.P. $4.80 each) with fresh cream poured over the top. This means you’re paying just $2.50 per cup! You can choose to have your beverage either hot or cold.
Promotion period: Until 7th Feb 2020

As the cool season fades away and we go back to our usual hot weather, make a trip to Wild Wild Wet to beat the heat. They’re offering 50% off all Day Passes (U.P. $32) from now till the end of March, so take this chance to go on their spiralling water slides or float along in their wave pool.
The only catch is that the Shiok River, Slide Up, Torpedo and Water Works will be down for maintenance during this period – which probably explains the slashed prices. Nevertheless, it’ll still be a fun day out with plenty of other rides to enjoy.

Mazesoba is a dry Japanese noodle dish that typically involves pork, lots of spring onions, and an onsen egg. But Nadai Fujisoba Ni-Hachi puts a local spin on it with their chilli crab version – and they’re so generous with the sweet gravy that it doesn’t even look like a dry dish! *slurp*
Their Chilli Crab Mazesoba is now going at a discounted price of $19.50, down from the usual $27 – which means $7.50 in savings. You’ll also get to enjoy a free top-up of crab meat, which you can have together with any leftover gravy and the provided mantou buns.

While Mother’s Day and Father’s Day may still be a couple of months away, it won’t hurt to take your folks out for a meal just as a kind gesture. And when you dine together with them at Swensen’s this month, you’ll get to shave off a bit of the bill as the restaurant is offering up to 2 free mains for those eating as a family.
Image credit: @katfaye
You’ll need a minimum of 5 diners in your party, and every 2 mains entitles you to 1 free main (maximum 2 free mains in the same bill). To make the most out of this deal, it’s best to dine in a group of 6 to redeem the maximum amount of free mains. If you don’t have enough siblings to make up that number, ask their plus-ones along too!
Promotion period: Until 29th Feb 2020
