But every once in a while, it feels really nice to out with friends. Especially those who are so dear to us. :)
The past Sunday, we went out of our humble hole in Lakeside to meet up with Fred and Hazel, the Laus, and Capt Jet to share a (pre-Christmas) seafood dinner at the No Signboard Seafood restaurant in Vivo City.
Side topic >> Surprisingly, we have figured out that we can take a bus directly to Vivo City from the bus stop just across our block. Neat! The bus ride takes around 40 minutes, which is just about the same time if we take the MRT which requires a transfer from the EWL (Green) to the NEL (Purple).
Okay, so on with the group date. :)
The original plan was to have it at the Holiday Inn in Orchard so we could checkout the buffet lineup they have over there, but the restaurant was already fully booked. Too bad. So, the next best thing is to do Chili Crabs! Hehehe... It was then decided to have dinner at the No Signboard Seafood Restaurant.
We ordered the usual - Chili Crabs with Sri Lankan crabs, Crispy Baby Squid, Cereal Prawn (which I only found out from Hazel you can request to have the prawn shelled), Sharksfin Soup with Crab Meat, Hokkien Mee, and Yang Chow Fried Rice. Fred kidded about the bulk order to be our last meal. Hahaha.. Well, can you blame me, these are my all-time favorite foods at that restaurant, and you asked me to place the order. What do you expect? :P
Baby Cedric joined us for dinner. And he was truly adorable! He ate on his own, and inspite of the little mess he made, it was just delightful seeing him scoop the rice from the bowl and taking a mouthful of it. And the way he had his noodles with a big slurp is just soooo cute!
And the face he made when he had a spoonful of Sharksfin Soup will definetly bring a smile to your lips. Hehehe...
After dinner, we headed for a little stroll on the roof deck to see the giant Christmas Tree. Of course, it's photo time! :)
And to cap the night off, a nice Christmas Fondue dessert at Haagen-Dazs. It was a good way to start the week. :)
So that concludes the Pre-Christmas Dinner with Capt Jet. Now I am off to plan the Christmas Dinner. Hmmm... Ideas, ideas...
