Drowsy Birthday Celebration :)))

A gorgeous nite view awaits the birthday boy. :) It's a belated celebration for Beanie at Sky on 57. 

The actual day was Monday. We postponed the celebration as he had to do an endoscopy this morning and needed to avoid some food for the last 3 days. He was still drowsy from the anaesthetics but his spirit was up! :D 

Today's call for champagne. :) 

When our lunch was too early and too little today, having some bread to munch is welcomed. ;)

We went for Indulgence for Four this evening. :) The first dish of crispy skinned salmon was delightful. :D 

We love the xiao long bao with abalone too. :) The broth was fabulous.

Hahahaaahha we didn't expect such a big slab of wagyu beef... *.*

Too much...I will abstain from steak for a while.... :)))

Salad to go. :)

And the chef dessert this evening was mango pudding with coconut sorbet. Erm...Lin's very pleased but not me...

A little surprise for the birthday boy. :) We are thankful for God's blessing upon him. Despite being emotional with frequent mood swings (to the point we think Beanie's having menopause), he's an amazing dad. :D 

I had to complete our dinner with Crazy about Chocolates. :)))

Note to self: to take more family group pics! :D Our pics are mostly one person i.e. on his/her own, some twos and rarely four together.

Birds Of A Feather Flock Together :)

I rarely blog about the F&B scene in Singapore because Lin & I hardly eat out here due to our health conditions and we save all out cheat-day coupons overseas. We have come to terms with our health issues and our cheat-days have spilled over to our homeland now as well. :))) It's Angie's b'day and it warrants a cheat-day coupon. :))) I stumbled upon Birds Of A Feather while googling for something & decided to check it out with, in Angie's words...baby gals? :)))

Love the place instantly upon stepping in. :)))

Birds Of A Feather serves modern Szechuan cuisine and cocktails. Unfortunately the menu doesn't have Angie's fav Szechuan Spicy Boiled Fish Fillet (水煮鱼). Anyway, we decided to try out their starters while Angie deliberated if we should adjourn to a traditional Szechuan establishment for the 水煮鱼 she had been craving for the whole week. :)))

But bam! The starters were so fab, she chose to stay on and savor the rest of the menu. :))) Yeah!!! :D

This place scores on taste and presentation! :D The starters that made us stayed for more... 

Fortune Skewer in Szechuan Pepper Broth

These Fried Potato & Japanese Sweet Potato with House Seasoning was so good we had two servings. :)

At least they have 辣子鸡 which is another Szechuan dish Angie loves. :))) It's called Find The Chicken In The Chillies at Birds Of A Feather. ;)

The birthday gals is into calamari too. :) Fried Calamari with Yuzu Tartar Sauce. 

We gave the honour of shaking these Crispy Pork Trotter in a Bag with some salty and spicy powder to Angie. :)

The seats were too uncomfortable... we requested for a change in table after taking this pic & finishing the first round of starters.

I found these Crispy Gyoza with Truffle Soy Vinaigrette lacking. Pretty presentation nonetheless. :)

Each of us chose one main to share. Tina opted for Roasted Chicken & Avocado Salad with Szechuan Pepper. :)

I think breads are served when you order any mains. :) They're so good, we will come back again to try their breakfast. :)))

Wendy chose Tofu Burger with Mapo Meat Sauce. :) Some parts were a tad salty.

I chose Oriental Bolognaise with Onsen Tamago, Mizuna & Ebi Sakura. :) It was good!

Lin chose Hot & Sour Chazuke to share. Lovely comfort food. :)

We didn't stay for dessert as we still had a birthday cake from Chateraise at our store. :) 

What a blessing to grow up, older, wiser & happier together. :D

Checking Out Google Singapore's New Office :)

Lin took me to Google's new office today. :) Amazing working environment with lots of perks for staff: gourmet cafeterias, barista run cafes, spa & massage, salon with mani & pedi, gym etc etc.

These hanging clouds provide music and changes colors. :)

The iconic green fella. :)))

Presenting the cafeterias... :D

We chose to sit by the window. :)

Overlooking these gorgeous landscape :)

What's for lunch today. :)

Gone were the days we could eat lots. :)))

For the coffee lovers... :)

One last time, it's an amazing office. :)))
