For this week, not only do we have more events for you to keep the love and sparks flying between you and your partner, there’s also a Tekken championship for those old-timers who’d like to bring back the nostalgia, a new matcha ice cream shop to remind you life isn’t that bitter, and for the singles and adventurous; who knows, you might find your other half at one of the events :)
