all the shopping and hurting feet was worth it..
cos i got treated to the fanciest dinner in my 24 years of life...
all thanks to a very generous and thoughtful friend (who wants to remain annoymous on my blog)..

here are some pics... but these pics do not do justice to the food.. (partly cos i din use flash, din wanna spoil the ambience...)
it was omg Y.U.M.M.Y.
and the ambience....
well...let's just say if my friend wasn't attached...
....i can seriously fall in love with him right there and then..
(i think when he reads this post, he will gag :P)
MUAHAHAHA


"...exceptionally fine cuisine..." - i totally agree on that...

...go check it out if you got the money....there's 2 levels, the one below is less classy (translate into 'less expensive') but i think the food should be equally good...


before the food came...i must admit i felt teensy bit out of place initially...stressful lah, in that kind of environment which i have no experience with *blush*

ooh, and the champagne was goooooood. the best i've tasted (well, i haven't had many before, but i reckon it's really good...)


appetizers...
left=double baked crab souffle with avocado and dill mustard dressing...this was so GOOD. when i took my first bite, i just went 'OH......MY......WOW....'
right=natural oysters with chef's horseradish marinade...this one was okie lah. oysters were fresh..but the sauce was...normal...tasted abit like bbq sauce..haha



me with my main course: atlantic salmon fillet grilled, served with honey dill lemon sauce and Eschebeche marinated vegetables...it was quite yummy, but the taste was quite strong (esp the honey)


my friend's main: blue eye cod fillet steamed, served with lobster sauce, chopped prawns and leek...his main was better...more savoury...and LOBSTER sauce....*drool*


desserts: Creme caramel with strawberries and orange segment in cointreau and Crepes with vanilla bean custard strawberry compote and lemon yogurt ice cream...

this is possibly the best dinner i'll ever have...
a big big BIG thank you to my friend...
if i ever have the money again, i'll make sure i'll go back to melbourne..so he can bring me to fine-dining again..
muahahahaha
