so i've finally got a chance to sit down infront of my compter with nothing to do and actually blog about my birthday. decided to separate it into three parts! so this post will be about my celebration with my family!
so this year i turned 19, the last year of my teenhood. and i've mixed feelings about it. hahaha actually, i think i don't really care. i'm not rly afraid to grow up. unlike some people who really can't stand being old like my sister. she's 21 this year. and she can't stop complaining!! hahaha i'm pretty okay with it tho.
but anyway, getting back on track, this year i turned 19 and i didn't throw a big party like i did last year. haha because 1. i didn't know what to do 2. when i decided on doing a bbq, it was too late to book because it was full :<
so anyway whatever, my parents brought me to this restaurant along river valley road called the tavern. and i loved it! it was really small and cozy, quiet too. it gave off this very homely vibe! haha
their big ass menu on display~ but we ordered the norm, 5 beef steaks, 4 medium rare and 1 medium
was served bread while waiting for our starters. i love bread like these so much. esp with butter. i love btuter so much i could just eat it on its own!! haha
my unphotogenic bf just acting shocked LOL
and me just trying to get a pic with my bf
so after a few photos, our starters came~ we ordered foie gras and escargot! and they were good! honestly on par with white rabbit!
after devouring our starters, they served us passion fruit sorbet to clean our taste buds! +1 for The Tavern!!! oh and btw, i totally forgot to mention that the service there is superb!!
while we were discussing how many mushroom soups to order, we decided to order 3 and share amongst all, they went to the extent to pour 3 bowls worth of mushroom soup into 5 bowls just to save us the trouble!! and the foie gras as well, they deliberately cut them up into 5 pieces just for our convenience! +10 points for The Tavern!!!
and of course our main! which was really god as well, the beef was done in medium rare, was soft and melted in my mouth. just how like my beef done. esp when it's a little bit bloody!! omg.. feeling so hungry right now.. hahaha
my lovely mom and dad (advertising his new s4 LOL)
and our happy faces after the dinner yum yum yum. only set back was that none of the desserts were appealing to me. and desserts to me is really important. no matter how much i eat, i will always save some space for an ice cream/ a brownie. but they didn't have that :<
but overall rating at The Tavern?
9/10!!
i've no complaints other than no yummy desserts. everything else was just perfect! i'd rather come here than white rabbit since the price range is about the same!
so if your gf's birthday is coming soon, this really is the perfect place :)
