McDonald’s

Here's a confession: I breathe a sigh of relief whenever I catch sight of the familiar, brightly-lit Golden Arches in a foreign country. Cliché as it might sound, McDonald's offers me a taste of home. I know what to expect when I walk into a McDonald's wherever I am.

And deep down, you know that you're not all that adventurous with your food choices sometimes. I get it: it's just more comforting to eat something familiar than trying something foreign and scary. After all, a meal consisting of a Big Mac, chicken nuggets, and large fries will taste pretty much the same in almost every MacDonald's globally.

Come home to McDonald's

So – if you've been missing home an awful lot recently, why not visit a McDonald's? Also, you could invite your roommates and create new memories together!

Here's a list of exciting and interesting things you could do:

Throw a McDonald's party

Invite your roommates and bond over the silliness of wearing party hats and digging into Happy Meals! It doesn't even have to be anyone's birthday; you can liaise with the party professionals at MacDonald's for a fun-filled day of excitement. Click on this link for more information.

Bond over 'live' screenings of football matches

There's just something about football that brings people together. A bunch of random people can sit somewhere and watch a game and no matter their differences, they would have connected emotionally by the end of the game.

Have a housemate or a couple of housemates you've been trying to break the ice with? Well, why not catch the 'live' screenings of the Barclays Premier League (BPL) matches at McDonald's? Click on this link for more information.

All geared up just thinking about all the activities you could do? Here's more good news: you can jazz up the experience by exploring Singapore's 'coolest' McDonald's outlets:

McDonald's Gardens By The Day

Here's an idea: you could conclude an amazing first date at Gardens By The Bay by bringing her to enjoy the familiar tastes of your McDonald's favorites.
