GV GOLD CLASS
And Fairoz is back from the DEAD! Haha. Well, jokes aside. It’s been a busy month for the Ilovelookinggood team! With the new blog layout, we still had a few more loose ends to tie up. Sorry for the delay and especially lack of post ups. Without further a due, today’s post shall be on the Classy & Sassy GV GOLD CLASS!
Well, to be honest, we have never tried the GV Gold Class at VivoCity. So for our last anniversary, I decided to bring Nurul to catch The Ugly Truth starring Gerard Butler(He is so typecasted in Romance movies! Time to move on to some action flicks bro!) & Katherine Heigl. The film was kinda okay for me although I that felt He’s Just Not That Into You was way better and covered most of the angles in relationships. However, the movie wasn’t the main highlight. Its the GOLD CLASS.
Both of us were like nervous school kids entering the big doors saying GOLD CLASS. It felt like entering the First Class Vip check in entrance at Changi Airport. And I have to say, I was impressed with what awaited us. Truly, value for money.
We were greeted warmly by the staff and were invited to either have dinner or drinks first at the Cinema’s own GOLD Class Lounge while waiting for the movie to begin. (They must have seen the giggles & curious eyes as one of the staff asked if this is our first time.) We both looked at each other & immediately agreed to enter the cinema first wanting to enjoy the supposed exuberant & well-gossiped about cinema. (Also, it did help that we already stuffed ourselves with Barcelos Portuguese Chicken before that! 
)
When we entered the cinema hall, I was really impressed. Heheh. Big screen, few seats (only 20 if am not wrong) & LUSCIOUS SEATS! I immediately jumped onto my seat while playing with all the gizmos on it. I loved especially the recline button which allowed me go back 180 degrees as i lay there asleep. Hehe. And true to it’s words as a First Class Cabin, with a press of a button, a stewardess (Eh. hehe. Just kidding!) A staff came and took our order for a mouth watering hot chocolate brownie with Ben n Jerry’s ice cream & tortilla nacho chips with sour cream & cheese sauce. Not to mention, a root beer float too.
I nearly fell asleep on the chair while waiting for the movie to begin. Also, it was fun being pampered and served by Nurul. Haha. Some guys just have all the luck. A memorable experience (although I can’t say about the movie though). I can’t wait for my next Gold Class Experience! Hint : If you want to get me something for my birthday, this is a great idea! And I can certainly cross out on my wish list of wanting to ride First Class. Why take a plane, when I can just easily walk to Vivocity.
