Dined @ Melt~The World Cafe (Mandarin Oriental) last Friday to celebrate No.10's bday. It's my 2nd time there, the 1st being my dinner event last month. The ambience was nice and the international buffet spread had quite a good variety, with oysters, lobsters, alaskan crabs, v fresh sashimi, some north indian, chinese, thai food, etc. The foie gras was delicious.. pan-fried on the spot, and simply melts in your mouth...yummm! The dessert corner was v good too... lots of different shot-glasses of sweet goodies, kueh-kuehs, a chocolate/caramel fountain and lots of fruits... and the waffles is a must-try! Price for dinner is at $70++ for weekends and $65++ for weekdays. Me & No.10 enjoyed the dinner very much and it was F.O.See... Hee!! Some pictures from my event.. was too busy eating so did not take pictures ... pretty weird to be snapping there too.
The restaurant wasn't the least crowded that I'd expected coz of the F1 practice session... too bad its situated deep-in, so there wasn't any view of the track at all but we went of the 'backdoor' and caught a bit of the happenings though. Could view a bit from the Ladies too. If u see closely, the roadside was crammed full of people. After dinner we went to watch a bit along the c1t1bank bldg... covered up by banners, so couldn't see clearly but it was still quite cool and damn loud.
