An evening out with buddies @ La Vie En Rose

12 years of buddy-ship - not easy to come by!

We wine and dine 3 times a year, to celebrate our 3 birthdays.... but we have countless phone calls amidst all our busy schedules.... Happy birthday, Denise :)


Bulot (similar to Escargot) - Served with Home Made Garlic Mayo (Yummy)
Beef Tartare - Raw beef (seasoned) served with bread and cheese (Should try!)

Interesting combination Foie Gras with Creme Brulee (both of which I like, but this is the first time its "blended" together)

Duck confit - always good

Beef cheeks! (I din know beef cheeks were so meaty!) - Very filling, best shared with at least 4 pax

Mushroom truffle (served with the beef cheeks) - by my standard "not rich enough"

Veal with Licorice (I deglazed the plate!!)

Desserts - Mousse (it would have been perfect if it was slightly bigger - it was good, hence, not enough!)

Desserts - Apple Pie with Vanilla Ice Cream (I personally think BR Vanilla Ice Cream was better - maybe I am a critic when it comes to anything Vanilla)
La Vie En Rose has a refined "unfinished" look and overall an interesting experience.
The restaurant (manager I suppose) - was always checking, making sure that we were all "okay"
Service was acceptable (the only slack was that we had to ask the waiters to change our plates - which I thought they should be more attentive at such places)
