Zara will be opening a massive new store at The Shoppes Marina Bay Sands.

The Spanish clothing and accessories retailer is based in Arteixo, Galicia and was founded in 1975 by Amancio Ortega.

Zara has resisted the industry-wide trend towards transferring fast fashion production to low-cost countries. Its most unusual strategy is its policy of zero advertising; the company prefers to invest a percentage of revenues in opening new stores instead.

Zara stores offer men's clothing and women's clothing, each of these subdivided in lower garment, upper garment, shoes, cosmetics and complements, as well as children's clothing (Zara Kids).

RS Deli is a new youthful, chic diner serving traditional Indonesian cuisine with a modern twist.

Their menu consists of mould-breaking East-West fusion creations such as Nasi Lemak Burger, Kampong Spaghetti and Belado Fish & Chips. Other creations like the Satay Chicken Burger and Beef Rendang Burger are both covered in traditional sauces but tucked into a burger bun and served with fries and Indonesian coleslaw.

The inspiration and backbone of RS Deli is the founder’s mother Lai Siu Ing who has 30 years of experience in baking and Indonesian culinary. She is also the pioneer behind Rasa Sayang, a renowned home bakery specilaizing in festive goodies, such as kue lapis, that she still runs out of her native Jakarta today.

Her brand of crackers, cakes and savoury snacks have carved out a loyal following in Singapore ever since she first started selling her confections at Takashimaya's annual Chinese New Year food fair in 1998.

RS Deli is a place where Mdm Lai’s extensive culinary skills and knowledge are translated into something new and unique, without breaking from the Indonesian roots. There are also traditional Indonesian offerings like Chicken Gulai, citrusy Javanese-style curry chicken and Chicken Lontong done with turnip instead of cabbage. The dried shrimp floss-dusted potato chips that come with the rice sets are also instantly addictive.

Their cheery red-and-white interiors exude an atmosphere of hip, fashionable café rather than a traditional Indonesian eatery. The hand drawn lampshades are also a testament to the warmth and passion that is invested in the restaurant.
