Pictures Overload: Oriole Cafe & Bar; Sky on 57 :)

A few weeks back, it was time to celebrate the special day of one of my angels :)
We hope you love our little gift, cause we seriously think you are in need of a new wallet haha!

It was a tough one to find a cafe that operates on a monday, but glad I found one! Reviews were not bad however, it was mediocre in my opinion! The company definitely compliments over the mediocre food! :)
We love you, our angel! :)
A random morning where he painstakingly woke up real early to make breakfast for me! =D
And yes everyone, I'm attached :) Thank you all for the blessings! :)
Me and my lovely bouquet of tulips! =D

His Main:

My Main:

Symphony of Dessert
My Verdict: 9/10
I loved everything about Sky on 57! We selected a few from the ala-carte menu. Our Hot Appetizers are surprisingly good. It was my first at Foie Gras XLB. The taste was alittle overwhelming at first, and I would prefer the traditional XLB. However, thinking back now, it was really a mouthful of goodness! Stuffed Soft Shell Tempura has a surprisingly richness of flavours in the mouth with each bite! Yums! I have a love for mushroom soup and this was not bad. We ordered Maine Lobster Marco Polo as our starter and it was awesome!!! I totally love the taste, texture and freshness of the lobster cooked in Aglio Olio Style! Totally wish I can have a portion of this infront of me now! *Saliva Drooling*
Our mains were not disappointing too! Anything with foie gras I will definitely give it a try! My risotto is full of the richness from the different mushroom types available! The lobster was also fresh and the mixture of everything together, I was in love! hee!
Lastly, we order Symphony of Desserts for 2 pax. It was a surprise as we do not know what was planned for us. We loved the different 'mini' desserts placed for us! The dark chocolate is so rich and not sweet at all, definitely to my palette! I will never forget the mini Chocolate lava Cake! Yums! 
I want to go back for more, shall we my dear? Hee =D
 
The night ended with sweet indulgence. The boy got me my fave laduree Macaroons and Moet! 
Thank you for coming into my life and loving me :)

Till then! :)

Weekends- the best time to relax the soul.

Weekends, the best part of the week where everyone looks forward to after a week of hectic work. How did you spend yours?
Friday night was the start of weekend! Headed over to JB for this awesome huge pot of Fresh seafood Porridge and Loads of LokLok, follow by blackballs! Everytime I go JB, I feel like a pig. All we do is chit chat, laugh and eat; nonstop! lols! But it sure was a night of fun and joy =D
The next morning, I had all my favourites in a plate! Lamb Chop Spaghetti in Homemade Tomato Sauce with Cheese Chicken Sausage! The portion was too huge, I had to share with mummy! =) Yums! Thank you :)
Headed out immediately after to my next found favourite hangout place, Assembly Coffee!
Cappuccino and I ordered something new, baby Chino (quoted by friend as Diabetes in a Cup, lols!) Surprisingly, its good! It's simply warm fluffy milk with marshmallows, biscuits and cocoa powder! =D
Milk is one of my fave! 
 
Hot Croissant and Pulled Pork Sandwich! 
Satisfying max.
Our usual routine awaits. My photographer suddenly has the urge to shot so there we go, Henderson Wave under the scorching hot sun for some phototaking!
And so *warning-photos overload again!*
Outfit: Bralet from Topshop
Midi from LoveBonito
LV Epi Petite x Ferragamo Sandals
And so, we can't stand the heat and decided to head back down! lols!
And the shots continue even as we went down =x
The skirt flew!
Grabbed this bunch of dried goodness off pasarbella market after assembly! A bundle of joy :)
Headed over for some cakes takeaway before my facial!

And the back alleys has something that attracts us and here we go again! hee!
Facial next =D
Tried their Raspberry Lime Tea Cake and Rosemarry Butter Cake and mine, they are so delicious! Rosemary is a herb I love loads and I'm anticipated to try the cake when I saw it in the store! The fragrance of the herb was perfectly right, not too overwhelming overall. It was a nice combination! The raspberry Lime tea cake was refreshingly good! Can't wait to head back more to try! =D

As I'm penning down this post, I'm heading to the hospital A&E with a heavy heart for myself. Hope everything will turn out alright. Cross-fingers and good night.

Till the next.
