it was a fun filled weekend. too bad it lasted too short.

Fri was Villa Bali and ktv w a few new friends. that was awesome!

Sat nite... Michele was supposed to meet me... then cancelled w me... =(
and i was left walking around Raffles City shopping centre. alone.
ended up meeting Neil at New Asia Bar to drink 2 rounds of aperitifs.
then coz i wanted see fireworks,
but New Asia Bar was fully booked for 7.30 meaning we won't get a table,
Neil figured we could go up to Jaan French cuisine at Equinox.

i wasn't at all prepared for the fine french dining.
the clear view from the 70th storey of the Westin was... superb.
the ambience of the restaurant was avant-garde.
the service was prompt and non-intimidating.
the food was... pretty good for its price. Neil thought it was.. decent only.
call me 'swakoo' okay? but i have never tried fine french cuisine before. ever.
i had this crab soup and a main course of vegetable pastilla (steamed vege in pastry puff).
completed it with Moet & Chandon champagne.
Neil has clam soup and medium-rare steak, complete with white wine. it was sinfully divine.
the entire experience burnt $200 in Neil's wallet.. thanks lots guy! treat u back soon!

the nite didn't just end there. we drove down to Dempsey Rd to meet Neil's ex-gf Joanna
(she's a lawyer!) and his best friend Aaron (banking also).
we had 1 fruity white (topnote of rockmelon, body of lychees), followed by 1 pizza,
and ended with a Cab Sauvignon. ATAStrocratic company! the conversation was... fun!
Joanna is really intelligently witty and Aaron was cuddly.
if that drinking wasn't enough, we went down to Central Mall's Blue Bistro for more whisky.
ended the nite bitching about Gordon Wee.

Sunday... spent my afternoon walking around Orchard alone...
ate ice cream.. went to Hello Singtel to see mobiles phones..
bought a Tissot Titanium watch for $380.
retail therapy never fails to cheer me up.
awaiting my nex manicure session. i need a good spa too!
