Complexity in Simplicity

BROUGHT TO THE "TOWN" OF HAPPINESS

In a blink of eye it seems, we celebrated our half a year on last Fri, 14 March 08! The sweet moments of having each other throughout this period feel like its only yesterday.

And while I really believed that we are going to somewhere near Heeren as told by him, i became confused when he turned into Fullerton's carpark. With half of my mind thinking..could there be a tunnel that links out to some shortcut? But before my curiosity kills me, I asked him "why are u turning into the carpark?" And this cheeky guy replied with a very simple yet self-explanatory sentence: "coz i need to park?"

And yes, I was like...oh, so you lied. A white lie I reckoned it to be.

Walking through the underground..hmm..tunnel? of Fullerton (photos posted in prev entry, I din know that there's this underground pathway until like Fri) before we finally walked past the grand ballrooms and reach our destination.

Entrance

Town Resturant at The Fullerton

I was constantly being asked to make sure I eat to my fill. hahas. And yes, not very far off from my guess after Shaun and Jer said that few sentences repeatedly. It was a buffet dinner. And thank god that its a 3-in-1 meal as there were simply too much food.

The interior

Brought to the seats at the lower level and I began to observe the patrons *again. hahas. Feels like a paradise for tai-tais. Despite that, the ambience was great, not so orangey compared to usual but like the quiet atmosphere. It allows one to indulge in sumptous feast and communicate with ease.

Interior with the view of fountain

At the far end of the seats, one can also dine with the fountain as the backdrop. hees.

The outside view from inside.

Another shot which I took when I walked around taking pics. hahas. I think thats the Cavenagh Bridge if i'm not wrong. Nice view! While I always stood on the bridge absorbing the sight of Esplanade, the river and Fullerton, I didnt expect myself to be able to look at the scenary from the angle of The Fullerton.

Interior - Top level and lights

Multiple times of observation still make me believe that the lamps hanging off the ceiling is the same as the one used at Black Angus. LOL.

The hot-dishes

Love the Sweet and Sour Fish, Crab Curry like sauce, and the POTATO CROQUTTE! :)

Human presence - Basking in love and enjoyment!

The Seafood

The mussels, oysters, scallops (raw and cooked), prawns and lobsters were nicely presented on a bed of ice.

Seafood on the plate & Starters

The man who showers lovely memories

The raw fishes & Sushi

For the first time I tried the Sashimi. Still feels kinda weird to me despite the well..hmm....soft,smooth and kinda oily texture. I still cant bring myself to try the tuna. :(

Tempura, Tepanyaki Meat,Dim Sum, Lobster

The Tepanyaki Pork was nice, cooked on the spot upon request. :)

Salmon Shooters and Others

I was quite amazed by the salmon shooters. My first time of hearing and seeing them. ;p

Happy and Lucky Koon >.<

And the time for desserts finally came after our trying of like one-piece per dish. Gals like me are just so drawn towards the beautifully presented desserts. They looked especially attractive :))

Desserts - So pretty!

A variety of choices to choose from. We had french pastries, green tea cake, banana crumble and cheesecake! And of all mentioned here, i would think that the cheesecake is the nicest with the rich cheese and crust below. Followed by the Green Tea cake that carries the fragrance of green tea with the right amount. :)

More yummy Desserts

Even more desserts coming up! In my memory, that's the oreo mousse, mango mousse and Clementine Creme Brulee. Creme Brulee was nice, topped with caramel. hahas. and when eaten with the huge strawberries! Yes, I love strawberries :)

Upside-Down plate of desserts

A photo that makes me giggle. hahas* upside down upside down.

A closer look ;p

And finally i like this relatively artistic shot =x

Leaving Town Resturant

Happy 6 Months - kisses. :)

I definitely had a great time that night! Had a superb bloating dinner and saw the sincerity from my cheeky man! All these months, I am extremely spoilt with all these exorbitance treats. Suddenly it made me wonder if I'm too young or still young for all these. I was constantly prompted by the question of "then your next boyfriend how?"...hmm, i've no idea. But extravagance needs perfect company to fully savour the moments. As far as what my beliefs and values are now, they need to come hand-in-hand no matter what. And for what I have now, I'm appreciating all of these and never let any of such treats or love to become an expectation.

While both of us enjoy such luxury together, i wont and dont wanna take anything for granted.

Over these 6 months, I have learnt and further affirmed that relationship should be of a relatively balanced two-way thing. The phrase ''it's better to be loved than to love" is not true at all. To be loved by the one you one brings greater and lasting happiness. Most importantly, little actions which seems insignificant to any other bystanders can make me happy for months, or even longer.

Months ago, I discovered a new Town...

- The Town of Happiness. :)

hahas. Yea. A random name!

hmm, yupps. having expectations can be quite bad coz it not only become obligations but also expectations climb higher and higher.

But sometimes its quite hard to really not have expectations when ur other half is not up to a certain standard...you just don't want to see the person ruining himself/herself.Expectations in this case can then be beneficial.

Nevertheless, not to have expectations would be ideal i think. Then again, depending on what issues.. ;PP
