IKEA Tampines

We were over at IKEA Tampines on Saturday to help them 'stress test' their crowd handling capabilities. IKEA Tampines in Singapore is not due to open till 30th November 2006. It is HUGE and is definitely a fresh change from the 'often cramped' Alexandra branch.

Huge entrance sign. Can't miss this
After parking, we had no trouble at all finding the entrance! The sign is big and clear! The carpark is spacious too!

As we were early, we had to do what Singaporeans do... QUEUE. Haha! It was really hot in the afternoon and luckily, there were tents set up to shelter us from the sun. However, the hanging fans were not working. It seems they have installed the fans but not the generators to power them!

(It was too hot... and I did not bother to go out to get a shot of 'IKEA' logo)

A lot of IKEA Tampines staff were there to greet and guide the 'Friends' of IKEA (as their membership is called). If I am not wrong, Mr. Philip Wee was there too... not bad... OH! We were each given a 'heart-shaped' plushie at the entrance.

One important thing to let you guys know is that the CAFE is very much better now! It is almost like my school canteen! It is spacious and we can forget about the 'excuse me' and knocks here and there, at the old Alexandra branch as we squeeze for seats! There are even two queues for people to line up to get their food!

So much for these bits and pieces of the new IKEA at Tampines! See it for yourself on the 30th lah!
