Saturday social bbq at timbre in singapore.

AJ, Linna, and I were invited out to the premiere of Timbre @ Gillman's Saturday Social BBQ for families last Saturday. This restaurant in the Alexandra area brings in activities for kids every first Saturday of the month. When we went, there was arts and crafts, henna tattoos, a field with activities for the kids, and a BBQ. AJ and I were able to relax with a col beer, while Linna immersed herself in the painting table, and played the drums with one of the restaurant workers (the drums were a big hit!). Since the BBQ was outdoors, it was REALLY hot. They do have fans, but it's still hot without a breeze. However, please consider that we are from chilly Minnesota, and everywhere in Singapore is hot:) We asked one of the restaurant workers to move a fan closer to our table, and once he did that, we were just fine. The restaurant does have an air-conditioned bar that we stepped into every half hour or so. We are weak;)


We all enjoyed our dinner and drinks, and Linna had a blast! All of the children's activities are free, which is great, and it was a nice way to keep the little ones entertained while parents relaxed a bit. Our service was excellent, the food was decent (I wish we would have ordered off the grill/BBQ menu), and our drinks were nice and cold. It was a nice change of pace for us, and we got to experience a restaurant that we hadn't been to yet. I'd like to go back (sans Linna) for a date night with AJ, as they have live music in the outdoor area most nights. I'd say it's worth checking out, but make sure you don't wear long pants, as the restrooms were a little less than "clean" (the floors at least).


Thanks for having us Timbre @ Gillman! We'll be back... only next time I'll wear shorts or a dress instead;)
