Early Valentine Celebration

Due to work commitment next week, I had to celebrate Valentine early. Took her to Ember which is located in Hotel 1929. Although the restaurant is a bit small, however the environment, the jazz music, the design and service have already cover its weakness. Felt a bit guilty cos dear hurt her leg due to long walking. Cos most of the roads in Chinatown was closed for the Chinese New Year celebration. Luckily the restaurant didn't disappoint us and dear loves it.

When we arrived at Keong Saik Rd, there's a celebration going at Sri Layan Sithi Vinayagar Temple. I guess they are celebrating Thaipusam festival.


Here're the dishes we ordered:
1 Soft shell crab
1 Truffle seabass (must try!)
1 Pork Belly (must try!)
1 Chocolate cake with vanilla ice-cream

All the dishes we ordered were very delicious especially the seabass dear ordered. Very suitable for ladies and its tender soft meat that really melt in your mouth. While writing it, I'm hungry again liao! The soft shell crab was crispy and with the wasabi mayonnaise, it's perfect. For the pork belly, the chef has cooked meat real soft and the skin so crispy that you will just want to keep eating. The cake with molten hot chocolate inside is also another tasty dessert. If you wanna order it, make sure to give the chef 20 minutes to prepare this delicious cake.

With our 3/4 full stomach, we went to Seventh Heaven for another round of dessert. This location is really damn hard to find. Even with Street Directory, trial and error is still needed. Do note that if you are driving, don't park inside the compound. Just leave your car along the main road and walk inside, it will save you some $$$. Don't say I didn't warn you if you insists to park inside. I'm not a big lover of alcohol, so anything that has alcohol inside is definitely don't taste good to me. However, the ice-cream gave me a different opinion. It does not has strong alcohol taste and it simply taste good. If you hate cafe with too much noise, this is a perfect "no-man" place for you.

Dear was thinking very hard which to choose...finally she took Lychee Martini
