Ecreative

cake is orderd from Ecreative, courtesy of the loving sister, Xinying. Xinying was giving good reviews of Ecreative, on how they managed to take in her orders on very last minute basis. apparently she only ordered 2 days in advance and its really cheap, only $120 for a 2kg cake like this. and honestly, it tastes decent as well. Not saying its damn good but ok, at least not those outside look nice but inside taste lousy kind....



and of coz, the design was a great choice that goes very well with tonight's party!

Imperial Treasure Cantonese Cuisine

Yesterday was his birthday and we were supposed to do a FaceTime call but Charming had already fallen asleep when i was done with my stuff. We arranged to do dinner today and Ken (my prospective father-in-law) suggested Crown Prince Hotel's Imperial Treasure coz he said he owed me roast meat from there. haha.. he has previously raved to me about Imperial Treasure's roast meat.







crab meat fried rice...



not bad.

charming's favourite deep fried white fish...



roast pork!



it was really quite good! yummy!

soya sauce chicken...



beef brisket...



si ji dou..



salted egg sotong...



and my mother in law wanted more meat so we had another serving!



overall, the dishes were good. except the salted egg sotong which was probably a little overcooked hence the texture of the squid wasnt as good.

Twelve Cupcakes

after dinner, we bought some cupcakes and headed over to their place for movies night!

we got cupcakes from Twelve Cupcakes...




what a cupcakey day! haha



the twelve cupcakes this time round proved to be better than my first try the other time with joelle. It is more moist and pretty yummy.

Poulet

the other time i was at illuma, Poulet caught my attention. After flipping through the menu at their offerings (and prices), i knew i had to check out this place!

arranged to meet up with bernard for dinner and it was poulet we went! After reading a couple of online reviews of this place, it got me even more hopeful. 







we basically ordered most of what was recommended.

first was the onion soup...




it was strong in taste and pretty tasty.

mashed potato...



the mashed potato is TOO smooth. so much so it taste like baby food. not my kind of mashed potatoes.

and of coz, their signature dish, the roast chicken....








it is good! the creamy sauce at the side is really good. the chicken is nicely seasoned. and even though i had the breast and i typically dont like breast, i enjoyed it! bernard thought this is pretty good too.

oxtail bourguignon....




while it was decent, it didnt wow us.

escargots...



again, decent but not wowing.


for dessert, i just had to order their tiramisu in a jar...







it was soooo good!

at the bottom, you can really taste the moist cake. i really liked it!

Paulaners

meeting up with joe and little bee at paulaners for dinner.

complimentary bread...



sausage platter...



pork knuckles!



while i don't think the skin is very good, i like their meat. the meat is quite tender.

Charlotte Grace

we surprised clammy with a customised birthday cake! from charlotte grace....



we kind of expected the design to be a little different but overall it was fine...



the cake was chocolate flavour, moist and yummy!








happy birthday clammy!!

Shin Minori

clammy's birthday celebration today! she booked a room over at shin minori...




the food spread at shin minori is good. except the service can be better. taste wise its decent.

the sashimi...



tempura...



yakitori meatballs...



pork...



my favourite of their dishes, the fried beef....







clammy's favourite chicken skin!!!

Professor Brawn

met up with cynthia to catch up. decided to go to novena coz its near both of us. She chose Professor Brawn...



apparently this place is a bit like Joan Bowen whereby they provide employment for autistic teenagers.

we both went for the set dinner.

soup of the day was mushroom soup...



comes with choice of drinks of orange or lime...



cynthia went for the fish & chips...



which was decent.

i had the chicken in truffle sauce...



the chicken is pretty good!
