Triple Bdae Celebration (1 Jul)

It was a gathering for Jeslyn, Zijia and me...our bdaes are all about 1 week apart from one another. This year, we decided to meet up and celebrate for each other since we are all hitting our big 3-0! We decided to give ourselves a treat and we went to The White Rabbit @ Dempsey :)

Before i went, i read a lot in forum pages about this restaurant. There are a lot of feedback about the poor service, the overrated food and the overpriced menu. However, i still decided to go check this place out becos i heard so much about the awesome ambience.

Arriving at the restaurant.....it really does live up to the 'awesome ambience' ... it is refurbished from a chapel and really ....we can imagine a wedding dinner there ....pretty cosy :) Too bad it was too dark for our auto cameras to capture the external view.....but the image of the beautiful place is still etched in my memory!

The service was pretty good except for the fact that they didn't allow us to sit at the nice sofa seating, citing that someone had reserved it....but then we were there from 745pm till close to 11pm and no one came to take that table.

Upon arrival, they served us drinks and while waiting for our main courses, we were served bread. The waiter would come to us one by one, show us the bread in the basket and ask us which we would like. The bread is served warm and soft.....really nice :)

Us with our main courses:

The menu is quite simple, not much of a variety......and really...it is quite pricey.....Zijia had the salmon as the main course:

Jeslyn and I had the chicken dish:

We had a good time chatting and chilling out......and then we ordered our desserts....once again, there isn't a lot of variety...but the desserts are pretty exquisite....

Zijia had the Baked Alaska with vanilla ice-cream in it:

Jeslyn had this souffle which is supposedly to be chocolate but didn't quite taste much like cocoa and the souffle is so eggy....

I had the chocolate tartlet which comes with some banana taste and some blackcurrant drink...quite cute :)We were so full from the dinner and really sat there chatting the night away....how time flies....and how blessed we are now that we can afford a meal like this...unlike the days in school where this was a luxury we can only dream of.....also most importantly, i'm glad our friendship has gone this far....we have known each other for 13 years and our friendship is still growing strong!
