Valentine Day 2009

Another date for double celebrations. It was our monthly anniversary, hubby's birthday and valentine day. As usual, everywhere will be super packed and dinners would be super expensive. So, we decided to go somewhere special this year for our dinner.

First part of the celebrations started with the dinner I prepared for hubby. The last time i did up a special dinner was when we first got our house..think we shld do this more often cos its super special and not too ex. Anyway, I went home in the afternoon to do the marketing. Total expenses is only around $30.

Appetizer is Italian Style Scallop..I named it, "You are my Sun." cos the scallop happens to be orange color.

Main course..Pork Ribs with Teriyaki Style Cod Fish, breaded scallops and corn. Yummilicious but serving was too much.

The setting. I think I did a pretty good job with the setting. There was strawberry scented candle-light, rose petals, music in the background and our dimmed spot light. Beats any atas restaurant hands-down. And most important it is much cheaper!

Next day, its dear's turn to plan the day. Started with shopping at Orchard. Free ice-cream to start our sweet day.

We ventured out of Singapore for our dinner. Took a lot of effort to print the maps and google for this place cos we couldn't find it the first time. But thank God, we found it on our 2nd attempt this round - Orang Asli Seafood Restaurant.

Food quality is not that good i feel...the taman sentosa market is much better. But for the view and experience, it was quite worth it. Our dinner with mantis prawn, drunken prawns, cheese calamari and lala only cost us around RM$80 ~ SGD$38.

After dinner we decide to venture somewhere new..discovered this place...we use to have 2 of this in Kallang Leisure Park. This is a cheap alternative to KTV. Costs RM$1 per song ~ SGD$0.40.

Their supermarket is really different, things are sold in the cartons...canned food, drinks etc. Guess its because Malaysia is quite big so its not easy to visit the supermarket every week. If I stay in Malaysia, I'll need a super big fridge to store all these food. Everything else there reminds me of Giant..even prices were rather similar.
