Anniversary 2/3 - Dinner


For dinner we headed to Starz at Sentosa which was a slight disappointment. The food wasn't anything special and not very fresh either. This buffet really loses to all those I've been to so far. Nonetheless the personnel were cooperative about food allergies and afterwards we headed to Sentosa Cove for champagne by the shore. It was as if we were in a different country completely! So silent, low buildings, small restaurants and bistros along the beach. We also checked out W Hotel that has astonishing surroundings, but I would guess the place is more suited for young couples.

Let the pics speak for the night! ;)

Date Night Out and a Restaurant Review


Some time back we went to have buffet (both of us looooove buffets!!) at Holiday Inn with some coupons we had from somewhere. The menu is pretty Asian but as many of the warm dishes were something I could't eat because of numerous allergies, the kitchen manager was kind enough to arrange special dishes for me!! I don't receive this kind of service often so I was very impressed by her helpfulness! I would like to point out that this review is not sponsored so she was really just a very kind and understanding person :)

My outfit for the date night was my new watch (as presented just a couple of posts ago!) and my new matching skirt ;) I wanted to wear something very colorful and bright for a change!



The highligts of the restaurant were the chilli crab and the small cakes in the dessert section. My main courses were a pan fried salmon and extremely delicious fried clams!


Some improvements that could be made; some of the dishes had run out or only a few pieces were left and the filling took quite a while or it never happened. The variety is also quite limited and some of the choices are not of the best quality. Also, the cheese&fruits section could have more variety (I'm nuts over cheese!). Overall, I'm sure that everyone can find something in the selection and the place is very family friendly with lots of families with small children enjoying their food. A definite plus for service quality - although tissue and cutlery had to be asked separately from the stuff.

After the dinner we went to Wine Connection for drinks. I adore this place! Great cheese and wine for affordable prices!


Last weekend we also attended another beautiful wedding (you can read about the previous weddings we have attended, from here and here, these posts are among the top ten most read posts all time!). I will make another post about the wedding soon! :)

Happy New Year 2014 + a Restaurant Review


Happy New Year!! Better later than never right? ;)

I'm planning on a post about the highlights of my year 2013 but before that I will tell you how I spent my New Year's Eve! This is also my first time doing a proper restaurant review so please tell me if you like it and if you would like to read more reviews!

In the "morning", we had a buffet lunch at Swiss hotel's restaurant Equinox. I had pretty high expectations because I've heard good things about their brunches - also the fact that Swiss hotel is the tallest building in Singapore is not a bad thing at all (imagine the view)!

However, I was positively surprised about the service as well as the quality and variety of the food. Having food allergies makes it sometimes very difficult to dine out but this brunch exceeded all my expectations and unlike usually, this time I didn't feel like I missed out on anything that non-allergic people can have. Almost everything was something I could take :)

You could choose from soup, selection of breads and filling salads, seafood, sashimi (at least five different types of salmon!!) and sushi. Main course is selected from the menu. For dessert there was an amazing selection of cheeses, fruits, cakes, mousses, ice cream... I'm getting hungry writing this (luckily I'm eating at the same time :D) I I must warn you about the photos!


It's so difficult to choose a favourite but I LOVED the chilli salmon sashimi, seafood salad and the amazing cheeses (a definite plus for having so many of them made from goat's or sheep's milk too!!). My favourite sweets were the crème brûlée and a mint chocolate ice cream with chuncks of chocolate :) Yummy!!


I can't even remember how many platefuls of salmon and all the goodness I took, probably close to a kilo :D haha. As  it was New Year, we had some drinks that were not included in the price ;) 


A happy girl with lotsa good food and some champagne :) For main courses we chose boracay fillet and tenderloin steak. I must say that at least the fish was a disappointment. I would rather save my stomach for all the other amazing food! My husband liked his steak though.


For desserts....


If you haven't figured out yet I'm actually on a fattening diet, and it's working pretty well so far! ;) As I predicted, the view was breathtaking!


At night we watched the fireworks with dear friends of ours who recently got married. You can read about their wedding here.

I hope you all happiness and joy for the coming year - remember to be kind and respectful not only to others but yourself too!
