Monday Blues

I'm feeling blue.

Not blue (depressed) but ubber happy because.............

Chelsea won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And it was a fantastic win to boot!
8 goals to cap off their final match.

Not that I'm an ardent Chelsea fan...
To add insult to Manchester United fans' injury, I'd rather Chelsea win than the Reds :/

Arsenal did well too!
Finished 3rd in the league and van Persie (swoons) scored the second goal!

PS @ Palais yet again

Went for dinner at PS cafe some time back in Jan.
Have been neglecting my fav restaurant quite a bit this year...

Got to revisit it more often in order to conquer the neverending PS Cafe dessert list.

Their flowers at the dinner table never fail to impress me.
Wonder how much they spend on flowers every month.... they have it everywhere, in the washroom, at the entrance, at the dining table, at the cake/dessert counter. It's fresh flowers mind you!

Settled for the airconditioned indoor area as the heat & humidity outside was unbearable.
Palais indoors was nice as well but give me Harding's indoors anytime!

Darren and our food :)

This time i tried the Chocolate Crunch Doorstop Cake. What a mouthful for a name.
This cake was indeed very crunchy as i ploughed through layers of nuts, biscotti (i think) and maltesers.

The maltesers on top of the cake.

After several mouthfuls, i was done.. the cake was too rich for me. bleah...

I saw this Granny Smith Apple Toffee Pudding from PS website and it was love at first sight!

So naturally, I came, I had to order and I ate it.
The real thing looks different (if not better) from the photo in their website.

Remnants of our dessert.

A round up of the dessrts that I've tried at PS Cafe:
Double Chocolate Blackout Cake
Chocolate Crunch Doorstop Cake
Granny Smith Apple Toffee Pudding
PS Profiteroles

The following to-do list is not exhuastive (which I am sure i will thoroughly enjoy).....
Florida Key Lime Pie
Lemon Pudding
Ginger Pudding
Sticky Date Pudding (not sure if it will beat Marmalade Pantry's version?)
Sticky Lemon and Chewy Florentine Cake

Gastronomic Wishlist

In a bid to try out and strike off as many culinary escapades from my gastronomic wishlist, here are a few nice ones that I've been to lately.

House @ Dempsey

Had been dying to eat their american sliders (mini burgers) and sweet potato fries!!!

On the way down to the old barracks...

Their quirky menu in the form of newletter

Fun and colorful table setting

Lamb shank.... so-so i guess

Grilled corn cob was excellent!

Now for the main star................ My american sliders!
I chose mushroom and blue cheese.
Check out the huge pile of fries. Its truffled flavored fries btw.

And the thicker and darker colored fries are the sweet potato fries (or nibblets as they call it).
The sweet potato nibblets are damn good!!!!!
Although i'm a huge fan of anything that is truffle-flavored, the sweet potato nibblets totally outperformed the truffled fries.

Cute-looking tiffin punch drink on the menu

We ordered it and this is howw it looks like real life

Its some grapefruit-lychee cocktail.

Nice presentation!
And i had fun stacking and unstacking the individual compartments into the carrier.

kan-pei!

The interior of House....

But of course, i sat outside which was even nicer as it overlooks the luscious forest.
Since then, i;ve gone back to eat several times and their skinny pizzas are damn good as well!

Everything with Fries @ Joo Chiat

Just about explains what kind of food they serve huh.

Clean and white

and sparse, if I daresay

Awaiting my dinner, cos fries are my fav food!

They have pretty cupcakes on display too

And finally, my garlic fries!

And burger with onion and sour cream fries

And dessert was their famed Nutella Tart! Good but sinful.

Oh and I just HAD to try OUAM again during coffeebreak

einny-minni, minny moe

This time i tried Agent Strawberry :(

Regretted my decision.. I think Sir Chocolate Truffles is way better!
