26th Jun 2008, Thursday
we were both on leave =) so happy to have a day off work!
it was not a lazy day though as we had to wake up early to send the mini for servicing and rushed back by 10am to wait for the contractors to rectify the sliding kitchen door and toilet cabinet. left 6 mths of the warantty period yeah so we had to do all the repair possible.
we feasted on the Goodwood durian pastries that the man had sneaked home last night. yummilious! visited Traders Hotel and then to the surprise dinner venue that the man had in mind. smart me knew where we were going the moment he travelled along tiong bahru haha.
the view and where we sat
the lounge area at sunset
our starters a la carte fresh oysters *drool*
I had the Summer Truffle Set (June Special)
The man had the Menu Classic
- Scallop Carpaccio with Balsamic Vinegar Dressing and Truffles
- Gratinated White Asparagus with Poached Eggs and Truffles
- Parmigiano Cheese Rissoto with Red Wine and Truffle
- Roast Jumbo Quail with Truffle Cream Potatoes
- Dark Chocolate Mousse with Raspberry Heart & Truffle Honey
The man had the Menu Classic
- Pan Roasted Goose Liver with Green Apple, Honey & Hazelnut Sauce
- Homemade Spaghetti with Live Lobster
- Cod Fillet with Pistachio Nut Crust, Green Apple and Squid Ink
- Molten Lava Chocolate Cake with Sardinian Saffron Sauce & Wild Raspberry Sorbet
the Pan Roasted Goose Liver was to die for! After stealing a few bites from the man, we ordered another order a la carte. it was that GOOD. Orgasmic! thinking of it now makes me salivate already. It has a very mild flavor when you first taste it then as your chew and swallow, the full flavor hits you from the back of your tongue and you feel in total bliss! Coupled with the slightly sour tinge of the apple, it is not overly rich or oily unlike others we have had. A Must Try.
the man loved the live lobster spaghetti, unique rich seafood taste. the truffle cream potatoes were so delicious, i was swaying with every bite. i am not really a fan of the molten lava cake but this one really hit the spot. the cake was slightly crunchy and the molten choc was of such good quality that i just reached over and finished half of the
man's dessert =P.
The meal was so good that I forgot to take the pictures of every item. hehe...thanks darling, i loved the meal, it was just divine!
