revelation of sorts

so when does the real disappointment kick in? everybody has expectations of somebody out there and they reckon that they deserve nothing less because each one of us feels like we've given our best at times. and those moments when you feel like your heart can't possibly encompass any more of the sadness seeping in you turn to leave. because that seems to be the easiest way out. and i wish i am a coward too. i could hide behind the shadows and i could lower my expectations and make the same excuses for you. instead of trying. because sometimes trying takes alot out of you. like the courage you need in fighting off mystical dragons in faraway lands. it deflates you thereafter. and sometimes when you run out of excuses it becomes tiring. like losing yourself in a labyrinth you think the best solution is to stop running after all you'd end up at the same spot. because i'm not sure what happens next either. when i'm no longer finding reason enough for the same smile the same gesture the same goofiness the same person. and just to stop the hurt we all run from the comfortable space where we found each other and took off to a time and place where we hardly knew one another. and i realise at one point how sad are we? the flawed beings we are. even he made us so.

le bistrot!


it's been a while since i had good food and le bistrot serves pretty darn good food especially since i enjoyed each of the 2 appetizers 1 main 1 dessert ordered that day...of coz i'm not gonna go as far as fhm and claim that's one of the best meal i have for a looong time even tho' it seemed like he booked the entire place ;p


saumon cru marine - raw salmon fillet homecured with dill and gin, drizzled with white truffle oil, and served with a deep-fried soft boiled egg, mint creme fraiche and mesclun salad


cauliflower soup with foie gras shavings and white truffle oil - i wouldn't mind if they gave me foie gras chunks but savouring it intermittantly was enough to send tingles down my spine ^_^


this was one of the specials on the chalkboard as well - lamb rack! you have to add an extra $12 but it's more than enough for 2 persons tho' and extremely tender albeit gamy...


warm dark chocolate ganache and pistachios in feuilles side brick pastry, served with pistachio creme anglaise and vanilla bean ice cream! if you like the ever popular warm lava choco cake you'd luuurve this..it's the first time there's plenty of ice cream left to go with the chocolate! Mmm mmm
