Dear Dayre,
Birthday boy's birthday weekend! β€οΈ Had a really nice time together, we really should put in more effort into dating sometimes….
Though I suppose technically it wasn't a date because we had Ben along with us to celebrate as well! That's how you get all the photos you see here π Thanksss Ben!!
First, we had lunch at Ma Maison Tonkatsu at Mandarin Gallery.. π Been there once a long time ago but I remember it being really good by Singaporean standards heh. Since YZ loves fried food, I brought him there for some yummy Tonkatsu!
It was good, lived up to my expectations! Plus, free-flow cabbage, rice (we had the brown rice), and miso soup.
Their miso soup is THE BEST I've ever had! It's not the powdery sort with nothing but wakame but has radish, mushroom, pork etc and is damn nice π
We were soooo damn full after lunch but still made space for Llaollao dessert! Love a well-balanced meal like this π
Gotta say Ben's not too shabby a photographer too, hahaa.
Was real excited for today cos we booked YZ a party staycation at Hotel Jen Tanglin, big thanks to @ronineel who made it happen because I was told that there were no more rooms initially!!!
Thank goodness all my friends are awesome!
Look! Birthday cupcakes and even a handwritten card for the birthday boy!
Hotel Jen is definitely one of the hippest hotels around for staycations π I love how it's fun and trendy while still top-notch in terms of comfort and style.
Welcome to our executive suite! π
Well-stocked fridge with mixers and some snacks for party time!
Since they gave us a hugeass pizza float in our suite, we brought it down to the pool side for some floating π
It was so difficult to get onto the float wtf we all failed epicly at it!
Then @royngto and @urbandoll came to join our poolside partyyyyy! πππ
After some steam rooming and jacuzzi we were all steamed out and headed back to the suite to find that the party had only just begun! πππ
Sweet treats and canapΓ©s!
And a watermelon vodka mmmmm!
We only finished half of it though π
It was really huge!!
It's so hard to plan surprises when you're living with your partner, so I had to send Ben out to get the cake I ordered for YZ because I couldn't collect it myself since YZ was with me the entire morning π
Ben actually went to collect the cake in the morning and drove down to Hotel Jen to put it down before lunch!
We called room service to bring the cake up at 8.15pm and since Ariane also arrived at the same time, she brought in the cake for the birthday boy!
Surpriseeeeeeeeeee!
The Patissier does the most amazing meringue cakes and I ordered the passionfruit meringue. Everyone loved it! It has a really delicate flavour with meringue layers that melt in the mouth, damn nice!
Their cakes are pricier but super delicious!
My old man πππ
And then we spent a good one hour over trying to record amei and jay chou's new duet πππ
Sorry Roy and Keline they had to hear the same song about 30 times hahaha!
The chipmunk version is on my IG and the real version is on YZ's IG.
It's quite a nice song!
Horribleness screenshot of our dinner/supper!!
Really satisfying fried chicken at Chir Chir that opens late til 3am. But it's a little hard to get to the restaurant cuz many of the exits and entrances are closed. Remember to take the fireman's lift and then turn left when you're outside the building to get to Chir Chir's external entrance/exit π
Chir Chir is my top favourite Korean fried chicken at the moment! Reasonable price and taste is great!
Think I made my man a pretty happy one this weekend βΊοΈβΊοΈβΊοΈ
Thanks to all the friends who came down to join in the fun with us!! ππ»ππ»ππ»
