Ronald McDonald's Big Red Shoes Bench



On 10 November 2013, I witnessed the flag-off of 150 volunteers at MacDonald's at J.E.M Mall as

they hit the streets from 1.30pm-5.30pm, to raise awareness for Ronald McDonald House Charities

(RMHC). RHMC is an independent charity that has been running a "home-away-from-home" facility

- Ronald McDonald House(RMH) at National University Hospital (NUH) for families with children

in intensive care since January this year.

Simultaneously, there was 350 other volunteers from other McDonald's outlets hitting the streets to

raise funds for Ronald McDonald House Charities(RMHC) by selling Ronald Smiles at $2 each.


Every year, McDonald's will have a McHappy Day and this year, they are inviting the public to help

raise funds for Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC).

The Ronald McDonald's Big Red Shoes Bench will be located at 4 different locations around the

island.

Dhoby Ghaut (NEL) MRT Station - 26 October- 1 November 2013
Harbourfront (NEL) MRT Station- 2 November-8 November 2013
Toa Payoh Bus Interchange          - 9 November-15 November 2013
Boon Lay Bus Interchange            -16 November-22 November 2013

If you have an Instagram account, do your part by submitting photos of yourself posing at the

bench and include the hashtag #mchappydaysg

For every photo, McDonald's will donate $1, capped at 5000 entries, to RHMC.

All proceeds from both McHappy Day fundraising activities will go to RHMC to support its

operations of RMH at NUH and McDonald's is looking to raise a total of $20,000.

Chuck Wagon BBQ & Grill





Chuck Wagon BBQ & Grill is run by a friendly couple who makes one feel at home when I dine

there. I went down one evening with my friends to Chuck Wagon BBQ & Grill that is located at

7, Portsdown Road.


The place is reminiscent of an American diner and situated in an open place that allows alfresco

dining and also inside which has a bar. It's a great place to hang out with friends to chill after a long

week at work.


The roast chicken was tender and the sauce that complement it was simply superb. 3 sauces to choose

from. Their buffalo wings which ranges from Level 1 to 10 (I tried Level 2 only) were tasty.



The décor of the place is very unique...check out the household utensils hanging from the ceiling...be

careful, that one might just drop onto you....just joking..


Their specialities are also a must-try, I would recommend the rib eye steak and tenderloin and prime

rib....especially if you are a carnivore like me... the portions were huge and I wish I had someone to

share it with.
 
 
The mushrooms were huge and I am sure it will be a hit with the vegetarians! There is something for
 
each and every one of us.


The desserts that they serve too were awesome and I could not resist trying not one but three desserts

(Lemoncello, Tiramisu and their special dessert-you need to ask the waiter or waitress).




The cocktails are awesome too! I had the one on the left which is Mango Martini!

So if ever you are looking for a place to chill with great music, food and drinks, be sure to check out

Chuck Wagon BBQ and Grill at 7, Portsdown Road.
