We’ve all been there: it’s mid-week, the weekend still feels just out of reach, and the daily work grind is starting to feel a little too routine.
But rescuing yourself from mid-week burnout shouldn’t require high-effort planning or an expensive getaway. A simple, low-stress detour to KINEX is all it takes to hit the reset button with their variety of retail and food offerings.
We’ve collated ways on how you can transform a routine mid-week afternoon into an effortless, reward-filled escape that’s less than a 10-minute walk from Paya Lebar MRT Station. Plus, read on till the end to find out how your mid-week reset can win you a 3D2N vacation at Dorsett Changi City Singapore!
Get your kids’ creativity running
Give your little ones the gift of music! Let them discover the joy of learning with immersive, expert-led instrument classes at Aureus Academy (#B1-23/27). Pick from an array of instruments such as piano, guitar, drum and violin. There are even vocal lessons for those who aspire to be the next pop sensation.
- Get a complimentary two-month lesson upgrade (worth up to $279) when you join as a new student.
By spending $30 or more at participating stores, such as Aureus Academy, you can redeem a free one-hour parking coupon at the customer service counter. This gives you a stress-free hour to slip away and pamper yourself without worrying about the meter ticking.
Enjoy ultimate me-time while the kids learn
Instead of spending time waiting outside classroom doors, parents need only take a couple of steps for a quick pampering session.
If you’ve been wanting to change up your hairstyle but aren’t sure what trends would suit you, leave it to the experts at 8titude Korean Hair Salon (#B1-14) to take care of the cut and styling. Otherwise, walk out feeling refreshed with a scalp treatment.
- Purchase a five-session haircut package at $180 and enjoy a one-time complimentary scalp treatment (worth $180).
Feeling dull and stiff? M.YES Beauty (#B1-16) incorporates Traditional Chinese Medicine practices into their beauty and wellness sessions. Treat your skin and body to a soothing, TCM-inspired beauty service designed to melt away mid-week stress and restore your natural glow.
- Get 25 per cent off regular-priced services as a first-time customer.
Chase away mid-week blues with a sweet or savoury treat
After the whole fam is done with their mini pick-me-ups, reunite with a hearty meal and sweet treats without needing to leave KINEX!
For picky eaters, create the pasta of your dreams at Pasta Play (#B1-K1), where each bowl of pasta is customised to your own liking. Pick a sauce like Truffle Cream, Aglio Olio, Tomato Sauce or their inhouse special Kombu Shoyu, decide on a pasta shape, then add toppings like smoked duck, prawns and protein-rich soft-poached eggs. You’ll then get a bowl that’s all yours in mere minutes.
- Dig into the ultimate cheesy comfort food with the limited edition Four Cheese Cream Pasta at $9.40.
No family day out is complete without a sweet treat. At Geláre (#01-K1), dig into warm, fluffy waffles and rich and creamy ice cream, or keep things simple with a cup or cone of your favourite flavour.
- Enjoy 1-for-1 on a Classic Waffle (worth $9.90).
