And so my gf brought me to the 'surprise' place for my birthday dinner... it was at Graze, in rochester park... very nice place too bad i didn't take a lot of pictures of the place itself though.. but u can check it out online. hehe
While we waited for our food, we had some water and a phallic-looking bread. haha. So you can roughly see the restaurant settings in the background... pretty much al-fresco, and very nice choice of furniture and lighting.
Looking at the menu, I was wondering what "barramundi" was... Sherms said it was a fish. I told her she was thinking of "baracuda". We were laughing over it for awhile until the waiter told us it IS a fish. hahah well steal my slippers and call me susie! who would have known?? haha anyway the top left pic's the barramundi (not fantastic, but fresh nonetheless) and sherm's totally delectable wild mushroom risotto. She enjoyed it of course... i mean, she loves risotto and wild mushrooms individually...so when u combine them, u get a very happy shermeen. hahaha
We also shared a plate of BBQ sausages... not too bad~
My 'dessert' is at the other end of the table. Muahaha...
Typical fine-dining: Huge plate, with small portions of food.
Okay here was the actual dessert... SO SINFUL i tell you.. It's called pimms poached pear... basically a pear with white chocolate mousse inside, and with sweet walnuts, a slab of pure cream and biscuits by the side. The pear tasted really nice though.
And here's the 'dish' that really took the prize. ahahaha. The one that i'll be having for the rest of my life. hahah thank you so much darling for the wonderful dinner. Yummy!

Hey Mate,
Happy belated bdae!! So sorry it slipped my mind at the last min... haha. But i'm sure u wudden mind. Anywae, it's so coincidental! I also wanted to take my bf to Graze for dinner for his 24th bdae which lands on the 27th! But we went to Carnivore @ Vivo instead cos he was longing to go there for the BBQ meat...
Hey Pey Shyuan!!!
woahhh ur bf's bday so near mine??? hahaha well how was carnivore?? pls tell me! i might wanna go there one day!
Yesh... indeed. Dat's why it's easy to forget to wish u happy bdae.. muahahaha... sadly to say, the food wasn't fantastic. A bit overrated by the online reviews. There were friendly waiters walking around with big slabs of meat in a skewer plus a small plate to contain the residue. They will then slice the meat on your plate. Apparently there's a total of 15 types of "meat", but I dun remember tasting all. There's also a lot of variety in terms of the starters and salads. Got chocolate fondue also... but not very nice though. It's a place where you would not go back given the price but for the experience it's quite worth it. Overall, maybe i would give it 7.5/10. :)
Man the place sounds like "brazil" at sixth avenue. They also serve you meat from skewers.But thanks for telling me about it. i'll ask u more abt it when i intend to go there...
hahah the way u wrote about it made u sound like a food critic! hahah maybe you'd like to consider taking it as a full-time career! haha. =)
Serious??? Quite a number of people have been telling me this already and you're the 2nd person I hear/read from in today itself. I'm really keen to take up such a job man... it'lll be fun to just eat and eat and eat at restaurants and cafes everyday, for FREE somemore. But unfortunately I have NO idea how to get started on such a job...and i'm certainly too lazy to be chubbyhubby 2. haha.
