Following my brithday celebration, we went to Robertson Quay to chill and I brought them to a newly found chocolate place that my brother had been raving about (especially their pleasure cake sinfully heavenly)..

The ambience here is like a hidden spot away from the hustle and bustle from the city.. Its quite interesting to people watch here. .. as there are many bars around.. so you can see the usual couple watch – we spotted a pairs of interesting couples .. and a nice place with a nice ambience to chillax

we settled ourselves down after waiting for abit and ordered ..

Laurent Cafe

 

Chocolate Mosaic

this was a very interesting dessert. It was ice cream inside, coated in a chocolate coating. The hot chocolate sauce next to it was meant to be poured onto this chocolate ball, and.. you will see the chocolate ball having its own mini ‘opening ceremony’ to reveal its hidden treasures inside

poured over

I spy with my eye

Of course I didn’t come all the way here without ordering the special Pleasure cake!!!

Pleasure cake

its quite a skill to cut through the layers without having layers of your cake breaking into different sizes and pieces. I loved the crunchy base and the layering of the chocolate, being held together with the hazelnut mousse was gave it an elegant touch.

Chocolate Souffle with Rasberry Sorbet

of course, not forgetting to order this special that took quite long to come (the best things in life is worth waiting for eh?) we were not disappointed.. but the friend that ordered this complained that it was abit too bitter for her taste – bitter in that it had too much cocoa powder..

I would return for my pleasure cake indulgence and chillax over a nice cup of tea while reading a good book.

Izakaya Nijumaru Restaurant

Because of my new passion and found hideout at Cuppage (where all the Japanese Gems are hidden), I decided to celebrate my birthday at one of the restaurants which I found.

The environment is very casual, and all the waitress are very enthusiastic in recommending their specials accordingly to what you feel like eating that day.

We went there and i think the troops loved it as much as I did (ok even if they didn’t I still did)

Salmon Sashimi

Assorted Yakitori

Tempura

Tenzaru Soba

Ika Butter

This dish has to be my ultimate favourite out of all the rest! I super love this Ika butter! I like how the mayonnaise mixes with the butter to give it like a buttery saltish taste. Eaten with the shredded cabbage, it balances out this symphony. The Squid is nicely barbecued, a little charred but not burnt. Love this dish and will definitely return!
