Next day we went to queue for Wicked day seats. Every day, Wicked sells 24 front row seats for 29.50 pounds on a first come first serve basis. We went at about 8am, were the 7th person in queue, but as everyone in front of us bought the matinee show, we were able to get front row centre for the Wicked. Afterwards, we headed for Singapore Day, which is a day where they bring Singapore to London, like the food, drinks, etc.. To be honest, I regretted going there as it was on a Saturday and I could have gone to explore Borough market (Fri and Sat are the best days to visit) and watch two musicals (most shows have a matinee and night show). Instead, I queued like an hour to get a small plate of Sambal Stingray, another hour for Char Kway Teow, so on and so forth. Not a very efficient way to spend half my Saturday.
Afterwards, we went to get Burger and Lobster, which sells only 3 mains: Burger, Lobster and Lobster wrap and they all come with salad and fries. Costs like 22.50 pounds each after service charge. It tasted heavenly and was so easy to peel the meat off the shell compared to eating crabs at home. I would eat this again but 20 pounds really makes this a luxury item. Then we headed to Apollo Victoria Theatre to watch our Wicked show. This is my first musical and I was completely dazzled by the cast. Being front row rocks because I could see clearly everyone's expression. A truly unforgettable night in my life, so much so that I would watch this again if I ever come back to London.
