*#*#* "Pure Indulgence!" *#*#*

My ms card in my phone is max-ing.. Tt's good, no? Ate dinner out with JJ 2 times this week!! First time at Au Petit, today at Marmelade Pantry!! Truly truly indulgence!!

-Au Petit-
Au Petit first! Set Dinner's abt $48++, comes with starter, main and desert. Our starters were escargots and the baby squid salad- both were good. i love their escargots!! served their way in the red clay dish-tray, totally drowned in pesto!

Mains: Duck Confit and Seafood risotto!! i love love love their risotto.. seafood and prawns were fresh.. perfect COMFORT food.. made me wish i had the talent to cook like that.. cool day with a bowl of this hot mulnch infront of the tv... tt would be.. wowz.

DESERTS!! pay $4 more for hot chocolate cake- comparabe to Baker's Inn's!! theirs has choco custard inside, Baker's Inn's more runny choc.. Ice cream is home made, taste of elegance! And of cos, Creme Brulee!! hahaha.. v v thin and sweet crust that juz melts in your mouth with as the custard slids down your throat... thin layer- cos they know it's good! =)

-- @ Marmelade Pantry (Holland V) --

I love their decor- simplistic white- elegant, pure and the little white puffs of blooms juz adds a soft touch..

We wanted to cheat by parking juz outside, opposite the resturant.. JJ sat across me, facin the street to watch out for any police/ warrants on the prowl.. suddenly, "police!!".. dashed to drive my car off and was quite lucky to find a lot at the carpark almost immediately... =) turns out the police were juz there to chase cars out so that they could close the street.. which is funny... cos it's a deadend street anywayz =p

Back to food...
Shared starter: Softshell crabs with rocket and coleslaw.. Their dressing was realli good with the rocket.. Softshell crab's juz simplistic luxury.. batter was crunch, and crab was fresh! we asked for wasabi mayo, and it was ooooh... lolz. the little plump cherry tomatoes were grilled to bring out maximum sweetness!! they were like little burst of sweet in your mouth!! yumz! =)
Mains: JJ's teriyaki salmon and soba - the salmon is one of the best!! i hate salmon which is overcooked.. theirs retain the texture that makes salmon such an extravagant fish!! we both loved it!!

I had the waiter's recommendation: Linguine and crabmeat in tomato sauce with a scattering of pinenuts.. it's really quite good- other seafood were mixed in to give it a realli seafood combi. Sauce is thick and there were plenty of crab meat!! Pinenuts juz brings flavour to a whole new level!! so they're actualli essential!! But pales in comparison to Zuko's.. i'm not a fan of tomato-based sauces, i guess.. =p

Deserts are to die for!!!

We had 2: Chocolate Truffle Cake (above) and their renowned, yannie-recommended, sticky date pie with toffee and vanillia bean icecream!!

Choc Truffle Cake is realli realli rich... cannot finish by oneself one.. and the portion is huge too! But the choc they use is realli good quality choc.. one cake can last for a whole afternoon! heaven if accompanied with a cuppa hot tea!! definitely for hard-core choc lovers!!
