Raffles Town Club

Never have I heard of a club so mired in lawsuits than Raffles Town Club, though some other clubs have also made the papers in recent years/months.

The thing is, we hardly go to RTC except for Sunday dim sum at the Chinese Restaurant. When it first opened, we did explore the place and facilities. Did you know they also have rooms like a hotel, so you can rent to stay there.



The swimming pool which is pretty nice though not really meant for serious swimmers. There are lessons for kids too. I have only used it once many years ago. It is too much of a hassle to go there just to swim.

The theatre which screens movies for both children and adults. It is actually not too bad.

The interior of the theatre. The seats are comfortable like those in Cathay or GV cinemas. I have only watched one movie there too. Hahahaha. We just do not use the facilities often at all.

There is also a bowling alley and games arcade, besides the usual tennis courts and gym. There are ballrooms for functions and other restaurants. The Western food restaurant (not sure of the name) is always full house on weekends for the lunch buffet and they do not take reservations at all. The Japanese food is pretty decent based on my last experience. The bar lounge is warm and cosy with English-style plush armchairs. Nice for an afternoon tea.

It has gone through several managment changes and that probably explains why the food at the Chinese Restaurant is so bad now.
