have been heavily indulging in lots of good food lately. steak on wed, sushi on thu, pasta on fri, and salmon on sat. I'm curious on what the weighting scale will report next time I step on it.. :)

went to basil alcove on friday. after some effort (read: look for the phone number and then call the cafe itself), we managed to locate it outside fortune centre, middle road. they serve good food, presented nicely and priced reasonably. but the portion is quite small, though.

visited samar, arabic restaurant at kandahar street. they have a unique interior concept, with carpets, low tables, pillows, yellow lights, fan and clothes hanging onto the ceilings. ordered karkadeh drink which was quite refreshing, made from hibiscus leaves.

went to esplanade this evening for dinner at al dente trattoria. stayed for some time to watch the a capella performances by local groups.. they're great.. and the concerts are free.. :)
