I first heard about Pasarbella at Marina Bay Sands when a girl friend told me it had opened there (from 7-30 March 2014 only). Considering the original Pasarbella at The Grandstand is a short distance from where I live, I wasn’t overly eager to check it out at it’s pop-up location, since I heard it was all the same stuff.

In retrospect, I’m really glad I did, because the ambience is nicer. A LOT nicer.

The beautiful outdoor market features independent shopfronts that sell cafe-style edible food and alcohol, as well as goods and nickknacks stores that sell adorable homewares and decor. It’s situated right on the water, so the breeze is beautiful, as is the view.

We were ‘saving’ ourselves for the Savour food festival afterwards, so all we had was a frozen cocktail. I forgot what we got but it was icy cold, delicious, and really hit the spot!

I think Pasarbella @ Marina Bay Sands is well worth a visit if you’re closeby. The open air concept is lovely, and you’ll find all the same good food as you do in the original Pasarbella. Nothing like chilling out over a cold beer (or four) with your partner or some friends!
