This is my first official birthday celebration for him although we had celebrated 3 birthdays together previously in office as our birthdays are quite closed.
We had an early celebration on sat as his birthday falls on tuesday.
The first surprise i have for him - Spa Indulgence @ Adeva Spa located at Paragon.
The package consists of a one hour deep-tissue swedish body massage, followed by a half hour seasonal spa polish. He loves spa & massage so he's happy with the first surprise i have for him. Satisfied faces.
Next up, it's dinner time. I have made all the plans, but he got to be the chaffeur. Our destination - Resorts World Sentosa. Dinner @ Osia.
open-concept kitchen.. V busy throughout the night as there is a huge group due to F1.
First to arrive, Black Olive Rosemary Stonehearth Flat Bread, served with olive oil, butter and a tube of Spiced Garbanzo, like a toothpaste for you to squeeze onto the bread. Nice fragrance, fluffy and filling. This is the most affordable dish in the menu. ($9) Hehe.
This is a very interesting dish. Seafood Ice Experience, one of the signature dish of the restaurant. It comes in a rack of 6 fat test tubes. And you are supposed to eat them from right to left. The flavors are as follow:
Pineapple Lemongrass Ice + Blue Fin Tuna,
Quandong Orange Ice + Amaebi Shrimp,
Calamansi "Mojito" Ice + Sea Scallop,
Lychee Martini Ice + Oyster,
Watermelon Lillipilli Ice + Maine Lobster,
Apple Celery Ice + Tasmanian Salmon.
I like the second one the most, followed by the lychee martini ice without the oyster. He ate the oysters and is loving it. Overall, all 6 tubes are quite nice and edible except the celery one.
This is my main dish. Atlantic cod served with potatoes.
His main dish. Yorkshire porkchop served with corn and tomato. I loved the corn!!
Looking happy, all ready to start eating!
We ended off with this signature dessert - Valrhona Hot Chocolate Soup. It's hot chocolate with vanilla/pepper ice cream, sinful but yummy.
After dinner, we walked around, behaving like tourist since its my first visit to RWS. I kind of like the place, it gives me a out-of-singapore feeling, as if i am on holiday =) we came across this Lake of Dreams. And i happily make a wish, for our next destination, to win back at least our entrance fee.
As we wonder around, we found the shop that i have been telling him that i want to go - CANDYLICIOUS. Taking pictures before we enter the shop. No photo-taking allowed in the shop, cos the candies are shy. Hehe.
This shop is much bigger and nicer than Hersheys. There are so much more varieties, that even a non-candy fan like him likes the place. Need not say for a sweet-tooth person like me, feels super happy to be in the shop thou we didnt buy anything.
Enough of shopping and wandering, we are ready for our next destination. The CASINO - Huat Ar!!!!
We spent about 4 hours inside. As we are both not keen on table games, we only played Jackpot.
And this is our winning ticket at the end of the day.
Minus away the entrance fee and some losses along the way, we make a profit of $400.
I always believe in buying a birthday present. So, even though i have pamper him with spa and dinner, i bought him a present as well. Ta da... Mont blanc wallet.
Last surprise i have for him. On the actual day of his birthday, wanted to bring him out for dinner, then buy him a cake. But then, the poor boy is down with fever. So i bought a cake to his house.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AH TICK!!!!!!!!!!!!
