a medditerrean affair

Celebrated the only June baby's bday (in our clique that is, i have like at least 6 frens celebrating bday in the month of June). So according to bday gal's wish, she demanded a dinner of med food, which was kind of exotic bcos i nv had the chance to.

Went to Club Med, located @ basement of Orchard Central. Funny how i walk right past it every twice a week but nv did try to walk into it.

The restaurant has quite a nice ambience, dim orange lights, candlelights on the tables and stuff. Concept of the place is like Marche, Ramen Champion tat sort. Given card, buzzers and a whole array of booths selling idiff areas of diff cuisines. Rather spoilt for choice and eventually settled for something really safe bcos wen tried it before- Duck Leg Confit, which was safely yummy!

buzzers of diff nations. tw's rang e moment he put it down. HA

what a spread. even looking at it makes me salivate!

duck leg confit above. Rosti below

So all of us bought a different dish from a different stall and then we ate them all together. Which i think is a brilliant idea cos we get to try a much wider range of dish! The Hawaiian Pizza was visually appealing with its thin crust and e spread of ingredients on it with yummy colours. But well.. not exactly the best dish. Slightly bland and not unforgetable. Lamb and beef kebah was yums though i dun really like these two kind of meat. But if gf deb was constantly picking pieces of meat from the dish, it prolly meant that it was good. Grilled Sea brass ordered by Ced was not that bad too, although he kept insisted that sea beam might turn out even better if not for the fact that the person who took e order head wrongly. Tsk! But it was still good. Tender and juicy with a crispy texture from the fish skin.Last but not least we had the Rosti with sour cream. Slighlt bland after all the savory food so slight disappointing.

So after dinner after some chit-chat, we decided to have an internal poll of the most memorable and must-come-back dish. Majority voted duck leg confit!



And then we had the best part of after dinner- desert! Look at all the yummy colours. Beyond words. But  of all things, ced chose a banana cake which i absolutely hate. (BANANA! How gross is tat :S)


Had a mini song singing, cake cutting after that. But bcos there wasnt any candles, we decided to make do with the candle on the table.


And ced being ced, made us do stupid things with the "in-use" stone. HA!

Followed by lots of talking, walking, cam-whoring. All photo taken by my pretty Leica but koped from ced's blog cos all edited alr. Hee



Supposed to be movie session but i heard there werent seats left n they decided to trek to bugis and take long bus ride home. IDK why. But it must be crazy tw's idea. Lol.

So on the other side of the island, went off to meet bf and his friends. It's funny how we're all classmates/ schoolmates at one point or other but that's just it. Frankly speaking, if we ever broke up, would i ever see them ever in my life? 99.9% Nope! It's not me being pessimistic, emotional or anything like that. It's just a plain truth that we need to realise. And the vice versa applies. Just a sudden qn that popped into my head and i ans-ed it myself. See, think abt it urself.

Didnt do much actually, hang ard, went to forbidden city (haven step foot into Clarke Quay for dino yrs) and  then slack at starbucks.

Slightly peeved by some stuff and den head home at 3-ish in the wee hrs. Think im getting old ba. Happening night life isnt exactly my kind of lifestyle anymore.
