Birthday!

My birthday was a very very fantabulous one... Had many friends sending me birthday loves and wishes from all around Singapore. (Sounds like i got hundreds and thousands of friends, but yeah, nice dream there) Spent the entire day in slow motion, taking my time to do things i want. Then at night, the big man and i went for dinner at FRIENDS. The ambience was fantastic. The food was oh-my-gosh. The service was great. And, the company i had was something to die for. Hehehe...

Forest Mushroom Soup(This ain't no powder/msg kinda soup, it's all real ingredients and one of the best mushroom soups around) - $8.90
Timbale of salmon tartare, guacamole & caviar
served with tomato vinaigrette(This dish is a jap and western fusion. The salmon sashimi is prepared in western style, the taste is something i've never had before. Very very appetitising for a starter) - $16.90Seasonal Oysters (This is very fresh and has the zesty mojo feel, slurrrrp)
These are the oysters, baked style.
Big man slurping his mojo...!
2 main courses served together.
One of them is a
Grilled 100 days grain-fed ribeye steak served with
garlic waffles, sautéed vegetables & veal jus - $32.90
&
Roasted sakura chicken supreme stuffed with
ricotta mushroom, split truffle jus - $19.90

Frankly speaking, the ribeye steak is grilled much better than what i've eaten at Aston's. Aston's is becoming more commercialized that their standard is dropping. Besides that, the sakura chicken, it's the most tenderest meat i've ever had for a breast meat.
The meat is so succulent and soft. Unlike the usual dry chicken breast meat you eat.

The owner ( i suppose), served us 2 glasses of complimentary wine, Chardonnay if i'm not wrong, to go with the main course, because "you guys are nice people". It was amusing.
After tha fantastic main course, i was feeling rather filled up already, we had last but not least, our dessert.

Warm valrhona chocolate cake served with
mango yogurt ice cream - $14.90 The big man says the cakes are all ordered and made kinds. So it's freshly outta the oven. It's very rich bittersweet chocolate. The mango ice cream serves as a refreshing sweetener with the warm chocolate.

Thank you Mel, Elaina, Steph, Chanel, Tan, Ruby, Cheryl, Pam, Syaf, Broc, Vic, Claire and Belle for the top and gift vouchers. =D Waoah, that's a lot. Muack~
These 2 are the most satisfied and contented couple on Earth after the dinner.
My birthday gift from him.
Italian style tiramisu made with mascarpone cheese,
sponge fingers and soaked in coffee and lots of liqueur.
Birthday cake from him too.

Happiest birthday girl on Earth...
Blessed with friends and family and loved one.
