Before the movie

Shopping and dining at myVillage: AllScript, iSteaks and Yogiyo

The movie isn’t until 7pm, so take the time to explore Serangon Gardens. There are plenty of fun retail options at myVillage. Highlights include the edgy and affordable bracelets, necklaces and earrings at U Design Fashion (#01-06, 6634-2166, www.facebook.com/udesignfashion). Hipster types will appreciate a browse through specialty magazines like Kinfolk, Cereal and Fantastic Fox at AllScript (#01-05, 6509-3813, www.allscript.com) right next door.

For fun hawker fare, there’s the Chomp Chomp Food Center (20 Kensington Park Rd.) nearby. But for an air-conditioned, sit-down affair, head to iSteaks (#02-03, 6285-8839), which has a surprisingly solid and affordable menu, including a 200g grass-fed steak for $20. Carnival games and activities start on the rooftop a whole two hours before the movie, so grab a bucket of decadent Korean fried chicken at Yogiyo (#B1-K01) and head up early.

After the movie

Udders and Little Wimbly Lu

Once the movie is over, there will be lots to discuss. Head over to specialty ice cream shop Udders (#01-11, 6634-5839, www.udders.com.sg), which is open till midnight on weekends and grab a scoop of their boozy flavors like Bailey’s & Bourbon and Orange Choc Bitters. If the discussion is going to be a long one, have it over the famous waffles at Little Wimbly Lu (#01-09, www.facebook.com/littlewimblylu). Also open till midnight is Desert Bowl (80A Serangoon Garden Way, 6285-1278), famous for their epic durian mousse.

No sweet tooth? Have a tea at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf (#B-01) or Toast Box (#01-01), both just downstairs at myVillage. If you’re in the mood to head off-premises, have a wine or digestif at Mediterranean restaurant Plonk (7 Maju Ave., 6286-4688, www.plonk.com.sg), which is open till 1am.
