First Up.. Wednesday's outing at the Prive Restaraunt, Bar Bistro, Cafe @ Marina at Keppel Bay, on Keppel Island. Elaine and I headed to Prive Cafe for a not so early brunch which later turned into lunch.
We didn't have desserts as appetisers on purpose, just that we wanted to wait till 12 before placing our order for lunch (cause that's only when lunch is served). Anyway, there were NO REGRETS having desserts first because they were simply decadent, so much so that it would be a cardinal sin NOT to have them..
Introducing the Praline Hazelnut cake..
This beautifully presented cake has a top layer of chocolate with praline that melts in your mouth instantly, with the perfect match of a layer of crunchy crisps that line the base. The textured sensation of this pleasurably sweet slice will send you craving for more!
The Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake
This rich chocolate cake mixed with a thick layer of mildly salty peanut butter paste is a refreshing new gastronomic experience. It isn't your typical sickly sweet chocolate cake, but one that you can't stop having. Imagine a thick creamy layer of dark chocolate fudge poured over chocolate cake with a layer of rich peanut butter paste sandwiched right in the middle for maximum palate satisfaction! This highly addictive combination will leave you asking for more!
Irish Cream Milkshake
Many will agree with me that some milkshakes leave you feeling disgusted, sinful and exceptionally bloated.. But this wonderful creation, both in taste and in form, will change your take on milkshakes. First sip of this creamy milkshake will hit you with a little help from the slightly alcoholic Irish cream, then sooths your palate with the rich chocolate syrup and ultimately leaves your gut feeling happy and satisfied. It's the kind of milkshake that you can finish all alone and not feel selfish that you have not shared. If you're looking for a substitute for your "chicken soup for the soul".. Trust me.. This is just IT!
Dinner at Marche
I suppose it's not surprising that many of you have had the Marche Experience. Marche has indeed re-invented eating and dining, though I still do not understand why people would pay the price they do at Marche, but I must say, they do serve decent food. I won't call it exquisite or above average, but in some way, it's decently delectable.
What's on the menu.. Wild Mushroom Soup with loads of Croutons. Cesar Salad, Mixed salad, Rosti with Garlic Pork Sausage and for dessert.. German Apple Pie, Chocolate Mousse and Bailey's Cream and Loads of Great company from Elaine and Emiko.
What's worth mentioning is the Rosti with Garlic Pork sausage topped with a dollop of sour cream.. This is Fantastic! Potato shreds pan fried till crispy on both sides, having the best of both worlds of "french fries" (the fried sides) with baked potato (the potatoes in the centre), really, can it get any better?! The sour cream just brings this dish to an extra ordinary level! Love it!
Alright.. Then came Friday Breakfast with darling Liru at Dome @ Dempsey..
We ordered the same thing for breakfast, what can i say, great minds think alike.
Presenting Dome's.. The Big Breakfast!
This sumptuous breakfast comes with two eggs, either sunny side up or scrambled, two chicken chipolata sausages, Pan fried Back Bacon, Fresh Mushroom Buttons, a Hashbrown, half an oven grilled tomato and two slices of whole grain bread with condiments. (Quite a mouthful huh!) I honestly wonder, why would anyone do Macdonald's when there is a true Big Breakfast at Dome! Honestly, if you run out of places to have breakfast, Dome is a place where you'll never, NEVER get bored!
Not to mention, the decor in Dome is just so cosy and in its own unique way, old school! You'd love it! Well.. I DID! (P.S. That's my supposedly "new" haircut I had the day before I went for breakfast! I so SO regret the CUT!!!!)
Well.. That's all for now.. More good food coming your way!
