hmm i wonder where should i bring my dear to..this saturday...
Hear ye! all patrons of Fish & Co, Swensens, NYDC & Jacks Place.Ahoy!! Your silent prayers have been answered. I have groundbreaking news. This weekend, your time shall not be spent rotting in bed..& you'll won't be dragging your feet to the Glass House for that overeaten Seafood platter.
This saturday..make the dining event an eventful one.an event to add colour into the monotone monday to friday..(thank God there's cell group on friday nights..thanks kenneth!)
Charis says that saturdays will be best spent..on food. But don't forget church on sundays too! =) Amen.
Let us begin. psstt...am not gonna just place a simple few captions and call it quits.A picture tells us a story..Words illustrates the emotions within a story.
Nuff said. I humbly (yeah right) present the Miss Clarity Cafe @ Purvis Street.
Above.
What a normal person see would be just a miserable, desolated line of shophouses.What i see would be a reprieve from the human-flooded, over-walked (just coining this random term randomly) Orchard Road.

For myself..ive been craving for a place which really brings out the rugged lustre of Singapore's past.
Somewhere which could give us a hiding place..somewhere where shopping malls couldn't be seen..or heard. Somewhere..where you could easily spend a warm saturday afternoon, reminiscing over old times with your loved ones over tea. The ideal setting. A location..filled with intense old world rustic charm...not forgetting that it conveys a profound,unexpressionable emotion where few could understand.
Probably shutterbugs do.
Interaction over fine dining(not that it fits exactly into the fine dining term - they don't serve foie gras here) Feeling a lack of communication? When you're there..the hypnotic ambience of the cafe just captivates your soul into a laid back dimension like no other places do.
3 steps inside, it feels like you're in your Malibu,CA.(nah, fat hope! ;p)(no, you still can't scrimp on that December plane ticket)
Open up, relax. Whatever which has been bothering you for the past few days....has been erased - unknowingly from your memory. Your eyes gaze deeply at the abstractfulness of interior design. Or at the gorgeous lady over at the other table.
As you spew drops of saliva out whilst catching up over lost times..you'll hate to acknowledge that the time spent travelling here was worth it....every single millisecond of it.
Breads crumbs.
Garnishing or what u call it.
Fish.
Potatos.
Cauliflowers.
Uninteresting, unassuming by itself. When blended together, under the watchful eye of a skilled chef..it'll get whipped into a culinary masterpiece..woops! exaggeration again! haha!
If you can't comprehend what i mean..You've gotta savour it.
The tender,succulent portion of dory fillet simply melts within your mouth...
I have gotta admit..this time round..the picture will describe itself best.I present to you...Ze Dory Fillet Set. ze Bon appetit! ze hope ye hed a greest time reeding threu. but not yet end har.
