We went all the way to 111 Frankel Ave for our dinner... It's the same management as the French restaurant we frequent at Boat Quay (but it's not a French restaurant, it's more of an International cuisine restaurant) - GoUrMeT pLuS PtE LtD...
Decided to go there to give support the merchant... do some networking too!!! :)
Let's see the "itinerary" for the evening:
Starting from the appetizer:
We made a special order for Shrimp and Scallop Salad (not found in the menu!!)... not too bad but we thought it would be better if the "vegetables" had some dressings, too bland.
Main course:
TaT had Duck Confit while i ordered Seafood Linguine in tomato sauce...
Yummy yummy... the Duck Confit was served really crispy and the sauce was nice... ~TaT enjoyed it especially the crispy skin!~
For mine, most people would expect tomato pasta to be served with lots of sauce but the unique point about this dish is, it was served quite dry, yet not lacking tomato taste... GOOD!! ~i actually like the fact that it has less sauce coz i usually don't take much sauce when i cook it myself~
We also enjoyed 2 housepour on the house (1 Red, 1 white wine from jess...thanks dear)...
Dessert:
I had Chocolate Lava Cake with Vanilla ice-cream and birthday boy had Bread & Butter Pudding (popular dessert there!!)
Not too bad but i still prefer the Chocolate Fondant served at Pichon (French restaurant @ Boat Quay)... TaT din mention much about his but i guess was just so-so...
Conclusion:
We still prefer Pichon...hee:), in terms of Food, Ambience and of course location!!
Birthday Present!!!
It's a birthday dinner so how can we not have a present??? Okay!! Here is it... i bought a Black Braun Buffel wallet for him... something that he wanted to buy. Together with the present is a birthday card (Bear carrying a Strawberry chocolate cake ; Strawberries are his fav!)
Hmmm, i'm quite sure he likes the present... and he also smiled when he was reading the card so i guess i did a great job... i made him happy on his birthday!! (Good job, Korina!!)
More years of happiness awaits you, Mr TaT... years after years.... :)
Tonight's dinner, though simple but quite enjoyable... Life is about simplicity and happiness!!!
Look forward to his post-celebration on Fri with Lily, Julian & Peggy @ Pichon!!! wahahahaha...
