Afternoon pick me up at Rocket Room

Beatnik Bourbon and Rocket Fuel

As initiation to our little group, all cousins must have a glass of Rocket Fuel. A spicy concoction of Silver Tequila, JalepeƱo Pepper Vodka, Cointreau and Lime Syrup.

  I already had one before with the other half of the group, so most of tried something different. I had Beatnik Bourbon which is a mixture of Bourbon, Cherry Juice, Cointreau, and torched orange slices. Zesty yet smokey!

Christmas Treats at Slice!

Stock Market's Sliders

Meat.Lettuce.Tomato.Zucchini.Caramelized Onions.

With the Christmas season in full bloom,  it was just about the right time to meet up with a few friends for dinner before everyone gets even busier with all other engagements related to Christmas. As expected, every restaurant in High Street was packed so our group decided to give Stock Market a try since it was either that or eat at 11pm.. (which felt like just about the same time we ended up eating since our order took forever in the kitchen)

So for my order of sliders, a promising combination of ingredients which failed to deliver. The meat was meat, the veggies were veggies, and the bun was a bun (which was not even toasted at that). And for the amount of time that our orders took, it seemed to have taken a huge amount of effort make something unimaginative and forgettable. 

The only thing good from our visit was the amazing company of friends...

on to the next one!

Shangri-la's Lobster Eggs Benedict

The perks of an early business meeting..

Lobster Eggs Benedict served with a side of Mushroom and Cherry Tomato Salad and Hashbrown


Admired the perfectly poached eggs!

Was a bit disappointed though with how the Lobster part of the dish meant a small slice of lobster meat on top of each eggs benedict..


Hope you're having a good Monday!!
