Welcome to the new normal. That is, if you’re vaccinated. Now that dining out and heading to the gym is permissable, it’s safe to say that there’s plenty of exciting stuff coming up. To spice up your weekend, we’ve gathered some things that you can do both online or offline.

EXPERIENCE | Slurping Good!

As children, our parents used to tell us: “Don’t play with food.” Well, now there is a great excuse to do just that. Brought to us by Invade – the organisation behind Eatbox, a new instant noodle theme playground has popped up and it looks too fun to miss. The whimsical space includes a 1.7-metre tall cup noodle fixture, interactive games, claw machines, and more that are perfect for the gram.
