Giraffe For Dinner
I met up with LL for a post-birthday dinner tonight. The original plan was to go to a Japanese Restaurant. We nearly ended in a salsa club, if not for the hefty price tag that goes with it. LL told me that they charge $90 for a 4-course dinner. Now THAT immediately sets us back many times, as I do not think LL (with 3 kids) would want to spend her money in this way. So we settled for the Giraffe Restaurant instead.
The restaurant is situated at the Istana Park, just opposite Istana + Plaza Singapura. I would say the internal setting of the restaurant is superb. If you would not notice the cars passing by, you may be tricked to think that you are actually dining in a rainforest or resort or something.
Starter-dish: Crumbed Mushrooms - Mmmmmmm...... The picture next to it is a pot with cubes of sugar. You hardly find them presented in this manner anymore. So this was a rare sight, compared to the packet sugar u see in Starbucks or Coffeebean...
LEFT: Baby Pork Ribs (sorry, my hand shook :P) and RIGHT: LL's pasta MMMmmm....
Dessert (forgotten their names :P) Check out the pretty edges of the cakes:
I'll give the restaurant 4 stars for the food. Staffs were friendly, but they nearly charge us extra for food we did not order. So, do check your bill before you pay.

I thought it was a great time that LL and I could spend a night like that. It's been so long since we could talk and yak girlie stuffs and catchup on gossips. I had noticed earlier that we have been having awkward silence when we meet up recently, probably due to the unfamiliarity build up over the years of not staying in touch. But we've been doing catch-ups recently, and tonight, there was absence of silence :) We talk and had a lot of fun making fun of each other and others :)
After we parted, we sms-ed each other, thanking one another for the company. And I confessed to her that I was happy that we do not have awkward silence anymore, and that we will should meet up again.
I am looking forward to the next fun time! :)
