week in review

it's been a long week and unfortunately we're about to start another one but at least for me, there'll be something to look forward to on friday which is my flight off to Tokyo. tokyo will be part work and part fun so i'm looking forward to shopping and eating :)

midweek, lance was nice to bring along homemade ottolenghi kisir for lunch
it was very healthy.... haha really yummy too

in between parts of craziness both at work and out, i've managed to check out the new le bistrot du sommeliar




they just moved to 53 armenian street and for j and myself it was rather sad seeing how it is now. however the food is still as good. we started off with duck rillete and chicken liver. thankfully our order of broken eggs did not come as we were seriously heading towards full before the mains arrived. next off were the cote de beouf and lamb of the day. it was amazing. ddokpokki was being extremely indulgent and ordered 2 bottles of 2006 Chateau haut-marbuzet, a french red that was able to break my sworn promise off alcohol after a crazy night out. j decided she had space for dessert and ordered an apricot souffle

on sat morning, i had a really bad craving for sandwiches and just as i was abt to msg jeanette, she contacted me too so i made my virgin trip to tiong bahru bakery. (this was also coz lance had gone there earlier in the week and i really liked their squid ink baguette and really wanted to try their sandwishes)
i wouldnt mind taking the trip up again really soon as i fell in love with their squid ink bun. croissant's alright, i still prefer the now closed down mirabelle but for a croissant craving, i'll definitely head there. atmosphere and coffee does help with a reason to go :)

have a great week ahead! see you guys after tokyo
