1st Friendship:
Over last weekend, I visited a friend who had just taken over a quaint cafe. The moment i entered, I was dumbstuck by the bright flora wall paper that was so welcoming... Walking in, there was a great 'outdoor', pebbled lined floors with wooden benches to enjoy a drink, snack and desserts with great pals! And for vain gals (not me!) the back wall is lined from ceiling to floor and wall to wall with large mirrors! So no worries about having your makeup ruined if you had a drop too much! You can always touch up without having to go to the bathroom. Oh! The BEST part was this hide-away right at the top of the spiral stairs for a small group (read:-lovers). No one can disturb you at all! Unless you want food... Order some snack, a bottle of wine and you are set for the night! to my guy friends out there! if you are planning a proposal I seriously recommend this spot!
2nd Friendship:
Yes! I'm a teacher... and many great friends that I've made along the way are parents (mom's only okie??? I am no home-wrecker!) of the kids that I have taught.
Met up with 2 corporate high-fliers turned wonderful stay-at-home moms. Anyway it's about the food here! FOOD WAS GREAT! lunch was at NARA, a japanese restaurant at Thomson Road, opposite United Square. Best quality sashimi - tuna belly that melts in your mouth, crunch jelly fish, huge ebi... *drool* Delicious fresh salad with an addictive miso sauce, HUGE (as big as the soup bowl that was used) fresh oysters in a light vinegrette sauce (we didn't waste the sauce and used it to dip the shred of veg that bed the sashimi), thinly fried crispy sardines and grilled fugu dipped with jap mayo and roe! Yum.... *i just licked my lip.. haha* We had the special maki and it was freshly made! The fried fish inside was hot!!! oh my... can you beat that? As you put the maki in your mouth, the 1st intense that hits your mouth was the mayo sauce, followed by the freshness of the fish... ooo so good...
oh course, how can we not end the meal with wonderful desert? We had sesame ice-cream (taste like the sesame paste! real deal here!) and pomelo ice-cream sorbet (a nice refreshing tangy taste) and on the hose was grill japanese sweet potatoes that were oh-so sweeeeeeet!!!! saviour every bit of it!!
*lick* did i make anyone drool?
Ok the pricing is not very cheap, but truthfully speaking it's not good it's GREAT food that's worth paying for!! They even have a private room for those intimate moments!
Chief Executive Chef is called Ben.. so you know what to do!! go "gao-sua, gao-sua" a bit, but he's married already... heh... even i didn't have a chance *sobz*
Thank you, K for the wonderful meal!! Call me anytime you need a lunch or meal ka-ki! I'll fly down instantly!!! hehe...
