Nice. I like the semi circle view but feel the 2 short buildings cause distraction to me.

I like to know where is Equinox too.

Sheesh...what's up with all this name changes...

Nice shot there Siron. Crisp and clear despite the thick glass at that altitude.

Westin Stamford was changed to Swissotel simply because Swissotel bought over the building from Westin Group. Raffles Group Singapore then took over a few restaurants in the hotel. One of them was known as 'Compass Rose'. Raffles did a makeover and renamed it 'Equinox'. Not too sure about this but the name is a symbol of fusion between the East and the West.

Essentially you eat looking at the same view but everything else is different.

I like the picture. The sun is setting right? That yellowish shade alone hte side of the buildings just works for me.

Yes the Sun was setting liao. The food's great there. But serving portion quite small. Services are excellent too...

I feel that the distraction to the pic is what someone said, the short buildings in front, (maybe I can crop them away?)

I would say for the settings you get there plus the view and services, the prices are quite alright.

For a main course its abt $30 or so...
I spent abt $140 for 2... quite okay.

plus the view & the romantic night out! Not many places to go in Singapore my Penang wife-to-be lamented! Well the view is great!
