Brunch @ Arteastiq Boutique Tea House, Mandarin Gallery

 Brunch Date with my friend on Saturday! Teehee.

Bought a deal from Groupon somewhere back in June, breakfast or brunch with tea set S$45 for two pax (worth S$75).

The place was located at Mandarin Gallery, Level 4 and it's really quite easy to find. I've made a reservation become came down to make sure we get a better seat. As the seats are quite limited, I recommended making reservation at least 1 or 2 days prior.

Didn't really had the chance took the picture inside view of the restaurant as it's was very crowded that day so *steal* the picture from their website. Hehehe...

The place itself also have open-concept kitchen where you can observe the staff preparing the drinks.

Dessert  time!

Chocolate Green Tea Lava Cake served with Yuzu (Pamelo) Premium Gelato

My friend ordered this dessert which is not included in the deal. Can't really finish the chocolate lava cake as it was too sinful!!

We both love the ambiance here, so cosy for a good high-tea rest! Service and food quality is good too!

I highly recommended this place!

Bliss House @ Clarke Quay

A new cozy dining place Bliss House Theme Restaurant found at The Central Clarke Quay. The restaurant serve up some innovative modern-European food in a beautiful garden setting. 

It was such a pretty place like walk through into a secret garden, filled with flowers, green carpet grass and white furniture which me & my girl friend are absolutely adore and we just couldn't stop taking photos! Here's the photo below we would like to share with all!

This is the entrance to the restaurant. Flowery theme with so many roses decoration! Sweet!

After walking through the main entrance, we were greeted by a fairy tale scene. My favorite part! *scream* A horse carriage with decorated floral all over.Very romantic and pretty place for photos!

A smoking water fountain and an absolutely charming little bridge that bring you across to a magical place.

An overview inside of the restaurant.

 Ok! Let's move on to the food!

*PS. The lighting in the restaurant is kind of dim though, so apologies the poor lighting in my photos especially the food. It was too dark to be seen without flash. 

Appetizer / Starter! 

Pan-Seared Buffalo Mozzarella Blanket

The wrapped was a bit salty and oily yet delicious!

Pan Seared U.S Diver Scallop

  Onion Confit with Caviar & Garlic Prawns on Semi Sundried Tomato Puree 

 

The prawns and scallop were all very huge! We just loved how generous the portions were.

Main Course

I ordered this cod fish and were pleasantly surprised that the fish was so soft & fresh! The fish was taste so good together with the sauce and I even finished it all! Yummy!!

Scaloppini of Kurobuta Pork

The portion was pretty big and I have to share with my friend to finish the dish. haha

Dessert

Sticky Date Pudding With Butterscotch Sauce

 This dessert is actually not a pudding at all, it's look like some yummy chocolate cake... and come with vanilla ice cream with almond chip.

 Traditional Italian Style Homemade Tiramisu

Dusted with shaved Valhorna Dark Chocolate

Me & my girl friend loved this Tiramisu so much! The texture was very soft and not overly sweet. We both like the sesame biscuit, adds on to the flavour.

Our total bill came up to S$151.80 (inclusive 7% GST & Service Charge) for 2 person. The service is decent, and we certainly liked the ambiance. An excellent place for birthday celebration, wedding celebration, anniversary and etc.. 

Love the restaurant theme very much, definitely will re-visiting again!
