Birthday celebration at The Clifford Pier!

I shall make an effort to blog more since i'm slightly less busy! I really want to have a collection of all my memories in this blog! Gab's birthday was about two weeks ago! Although it was his birthday, he still took the effort to fetch me around. Heh, i'm really so blessed.

Since i had booked our dinner date at 7pm, we had quite a bit of time to spare before that. We decided to head to our favourite ice cream place at Tom's Palette! We love Tom's Palette so much because their ice cream is SO creamy. They have so many different unique flavors too. This time, we opted for their salted egg yolk and milk flavor. It costs a total of about $5-$6 for two scoops of ice cream! I thought it was quite worth it!

Happy with our ice cream at Tom's Palette!

Then we headed to The Clifford Pier at The Fullerton Bay Hotel. We've walked past Fullerton Bay Hotel so many times but we never didn't know that this was actually Fullerton Bay Hotel. It's so beautiful and the decoration is so luxurious.

I like how their decorations are so symmetrical. It just makes everything look so elegant!

At 7pm, we headed to The Clifford Pier. It was a Saturday night but surprisingly, it wasn't crowded at all. In fact, it was very quiet and perfect for a romantic dinner.

We ordered three dishes. The portions weren't really that big so thank goodness we didn't over order. We opted for their lobster roll, carrot cake and rickshaw noodles.

Two Generation Rickshaw Noodles ($18)

I thought this was not bad! It's very unique, richly flavored dry noodles in pork broth. The sous-vide egg was perfect too and Gabriel loved it! It also came with very light and refreshing soup. For the price, i thought that it was worth a try!

Fried Carrot Cake ($16)

Unfortunately, the carrot cake only came in black sauce and there was no option for the white version. I thought for the price, this isn't really worth it. There portions of the egg were not generous. I thought i could easily get this (or even a better version of this) for $4 or $5 dollars at a hawker centre.

The Pier Lobster Roll ($29)

Gabriel really enjoyed the bread that came with this. It was soft and piping hot. It was also very well buttered. This was my favourite dish! The lobster was so fresh and juicy! They were also very generous with their servings of lobster. To top it all of, this lobster roll was accompanied with a good portion of truffle fries.

I can't believe how i managed to wolf down all that food.

Although the food at The Clifford Pier wasn't that mind-blowing, they certainly had some good dishes like the Rickshaw Noodles and Lobster Roll. I guess for the price, it was quite value for money, considering the fact that they had quite decent food. Furthermore, the ambience was superb. There was even a live band playing some oldie songs.

This really just sums up how we celebrated Gab's birthday! It wasn't anything fanciful but what was most important was the company we had in each other.
