The Blue Basil.

Blue Basil is a restaurant in the row of old shop houses along Cairnhill Road. Tucked at one corner of Orchard area, amongst the condominiums, it is hidden from the crowd, a perfect place for a nice quiet evening dinner. We only get to know this place from the recommendation of HungryGoWhere.

The Occasion? Valentine's is round the corner, but it is also Friendship Day. Celebration with my bestest-best-of-friend.

For appetizer, we had Sauteed Mussels. Delicious!

Main course, she had Cray fish with broccoli, pilaf and blue basil pesto...

and I had Norwegian salmon with bouquet of vegetables, fries and hot garlic...

Delicious again!

They ran outta lemon sorbet and chocolate. But the vanilla and strawberry gelato made up for it.

Overall, I enjoyed the food alot. The sauce was really good. I like the fact that it wasn't crowded and we were free to sit anywhere we like. I would recommend that you give it a try. Please bring along your empty stomach and great company like your partner/spouse or best friend to enjoy the ambiance. And if you are a beer-person, you can continue your chit chat with beer, alfresco-style, after your meal. While the price was above average, we enjoyed great discount for the wine and 2nd main course.

Leave you with another beautiful photo of bestest-best-of-friend. =)

Resolutions 2012.

While my one-year-old is going for his first steps, I am also learning to walk (again). 2011 was full of ups and downs.  I was promoted for the 2nd time in my first job. Not fantastic but not bad either after six years. The challenging issues justifies for the few more dollars increment to the stipend. Murphy is my good friend. With only the final milestone left, I hope to overcome all odds and pull the rabbit outta the hat in 2012! If I am lucky, I may run another project.  For the consecutive year, I expended all my medical leave. After hearing my story, some may say 父爱是伟大的. Some may think I was pure clumsy. As my son likes to watch basketball playing, I decided to show him how to do it myself. At first I felt good, I got it plenty of shots. Unfortunately, I broke my ACL while chasing after the ball. It has been two months and my knee is still weak and hurts occasionally. I plan to go for surgery in 2012, while performing the balancing act of pulling the rabbit and recup...

The Last 24 Hours, Twenty-Twelve.

It is becoming a tradition. This is the fourth time for me. This year, two new companions joined me for this journey in the last 24 hours of 2012. As usual, is only for a few hours in the afternoon. But I like the sound of it, "last 24 hours".  It started out in 2008 for me, a ala    Eye é City . For the record, it was another rainy new year's eve. We started our journey at Thian Hock Keng, Amoy Street and ended at Raffles City Shopping Centre. It was interesting for me as it was my first time to Thian Hock Keng. This year, instead of posting the photos here, I have uploaded them to my Flickr account . The photos look better there as I don't have to reduce the size of the photos for this blog. I will re-edit the past photos and upload them as well when I am free. Who will join me next year? You can sign up now!
