Hard Rock Hotel, Starz Restaurant, is located in a centralised location at Sentosa. This means you are minutes away from some of the region’s top attractions, such as Universal Studios Singapore® and S.E.A. Aquarium™, as well as Asia's flagship of the world-renowned ESPA.
 
 

 

International Buffet Dining

This colourful and fun restaurant offers buffet Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, with a wide variety of international and local cuisine, which is ideal for both locals and tourists.


Activities for Kids

On every 1st Sunday of the month, starting from 6 July 2014, a whole range of kids activities are specially lined-up for the little ones. The adults can watch them play and laugh while they indulge in the sumptuous spread.


Kids’ Activities
12.00pm – 1.30pmRegistration / Face Painting
12.00pm – 4.00pmSpecial Kids Buffet and Movie Screening at Hall of Fame
1.30pm – 2.30pmStory Telling / Games
3.00pm – 3.30pmMagic in a 'Bottle' by Mr Bottle



As a diner, I might not be aware that there are activities only on the 1st Sunday of the month, and might have mistaken and head down for a Sunday Brunch. Upon knowing there isn't any activities, I would get rather disappointed and probably decide to dine at another place before stepping in. I might even decide not to patronise the restaurant anymore to avoid disappointment again. I would rather the restaurant have activities on all Sundays, with 1 or 2 activities per time. In this way, regular diners can enjoy different activities on different visits. This will give them a refreshing and surprise feeing on every visit.
   
 It is great to have activities for kids all lined-up for the Sunday Brunch. However, what about the adults? For those who just come in with their small family and does not come with their friends, it is unlikely that they will stay there for 4 hours. Hence, there is a tendency that the parents will want the kids to leave the restaurant. It is commonly seen where parents will "grab" their kids and stop them from what they are doing/ watching. To counter-act this, the restaurant should also have some activities for adults, e.g. Close-up Magic, Caricature & top-up a certain amount for Wine for the drinkers.

Handcarved Rubber Stamps Workshop

SiYin Crafts

 
Believed everyone have seen or used rubber stamps before, but how many of us have carved their own rubber stamps?
 
This is a new and creative craft. Kids definitely love to have a unique symbol, be it a cartoon character, wordings or picture to represent themselves. Adults can get this as a fun sign-off method. Even teachers can use this to chop on his/her students work. Companies can even think of DIY their own company stamps instead of getting someone to make.
 
The rubber stamp is very durable, so one does not have to worry the picture gets fade off after some time.
 
It is great for family bonding! Parents can help their children with the carving part. Kids are not being left out too! They can help with the safer task like tracing, image transfer, cleaning of stamp surface, test printing and mounting of carved stamp to wooden block.
 
This is perfect for School Holiday Workshop, Birthday Party and Bring Your Kids to Work event. Basic and Beginner Rubber Stamp Making Workshops are available. Alternatively, you can also purchase the ready-made stamps.

The drawing paper as well as the drawing itself can be customize to Angry Bird theme too.

Renting or even buying Angry Bird mascots and having them taking care at each station can be a great idea!
