~Happy V-Day~

Labels: food, halia restaurant

Although v-day dinners are overly pricey.. we still celebrated it anyways heee~ cos its our first! :D~ 2 days before the actual v-day which coincided with CNY~

The Place~

*~ Halia Restaurant in a nice cosy corner of Botanical Gardens ~*

Appetizers~~

*~ truffle mushrooms ~*

SUPER GOOD! with an interesting egg thing in the middle.. seems to be done with cheese??

*~ soft shell crab ~*

a sinful one... knowing how much oil goes into it~ but mm~ tasty! more than enough for 2 though~

Mains~

*~ angus ribeye ~*

looked a little bloody.. even in the dim lighting.. but tasted a little tough.. *disappointment*

*~ rack of lamb~*

we had a long wait for this one.. (think they forgot abt our order) but all good things are worth the wait yah? This was the BEST dish for the nite~ i'm not a big fan of lamb cos of the strong taste but this one was ok for me *highly recommended*

Dessert!

we were too full by then but definitely had to have something recommended from the menu right?

*~ teh tarik halia ~*

this was a teh tarik flavoured pudding.. iiinnnnttteeerreesstiiingg.. mm... that's all i can say~

if we go to halia restaurant again, its cos of the truffle mushrooms and the lamb~ :P~

*~ the 12 Chinese Zodiac Doraemons for HER ~*

A gift that was effort of him, his mom whom helped with the packaging~ and his bro whom queued the 2 hours to collect these babies from the seller~

*~ a Phosphor e-INK watch for HIM ~*

Had help from andrew who sent me a million links to a billion watches.. had a tough time choosing esp'ly when this is not my specialty.. my idea of "pretty" might not be his.. my only hint was *orange* hee~ saw this unique one and was affirmed by andrew when he said it's probably the first in SG~ :P~
