It was free to play, we had a few games until the ball got stuck and never got out again.. then we walk back to our table. Dunno if Pail had enjoyed as much me or not..  but I had lotsa fun. =p<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_1_placeholder\n<p>Enjoying starters while waiting for our food to be served.. Fried Tripe wasn&#8217;t as good as people have raved about wor.. their bread was also quite hard and tough to bite.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_2_placeholder\n<p>Main course served! I ordered their signature dish &#8220;Roast Pork Collar&#8221; (cooked in a creamy Dijon mustard sauce, served w\/ brussel sprouts amandine, garlic potatoes &#038; forest mushrooms)<br \/>\n&#8230;while Pail had &#8220;Boeuf bourguignon&#8221; (grass fed beef marinated overnight &#038; braised in red wine, served w\/ sauteed mushrooms, pearlonions &#038; roast baby potatoes).. overall, YUMMY!! Next time, we wanna bring more friends to try out their &#8220;Poulet Roti&#8221; (whole hormone-free chicken for two-three pax but I think can be four-five pax! Marinated for 2 days &#038; roasted w\/ fresh herb butter, served w\/ gravy roast baby potatoes &#038; spring vegetables)<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_3_placeholder\n<p>The birthday &#8220;boy&#8221; gets to make a wish, blow the candles and eat the cake!! =D<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_4_placeholder\n<p>After food, we popped over to the Gotham City of Singapore for some drinks. OMG, It&#8217;s soooo COOL in there!! Drinks aren&#8217;t too expensive, quiet and cosy, yet there&#8217;s a piano bar with bossa nova live singing.. gosh, love it.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_5_placeholder\n<p>We promised and agreed that we shall save some money this year for our wedding and honeymoon, so no presents!! But I still did a lil&#8217; card for Pail.. heeee.. nope, I&#8217;m not publishing it here cos Pail doesn&#8217;t wanna publish it! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I listed a few options for Pail to pick, and he picked the exact one I had in my mind too.. haha!
