It's been a couple of years since we celebrated our Anniversary. I think we went out for a simple meal for the last few ... but yeah I don't remember any of the details anymore. I guess the last two was because our attention and focus were on OO so the anniversary was just another day in the year.
This year our anniversary happens to fall on a public holiday so we had Mama help us babysit OO while we went for a couple's day-out. We didn't do anything exciting but are just as happy having me-time together.
Meimei brought us to Porta @Park Hotel Clark Quay. It's a modern European style cooking with a hint of Spanish influences.
Meimei claims that the pork tasted exactly like those she had in Spain. I'm not sure if they actually imported the pork from Spain but I suspect they have marinated it in the same style. Whatever it is, it tastes wonderful.
After the hearty meal, we set out for what most would class as a 'weird' activity on an Anniversary day. Today's the launch of a new Jujubee print and we were off to Race Course road to try and snag some goodies.
Due to the crowd, the seller adopted a lottery scheme of letting mummies with a certain pre-assigned numbers enter each half hour. Those who were lucky to get in early had first dips on the popular design and models.
As for us, we waited from 3pm to 5pm before we had our turn. It was a slight damper, especially when we had already been waiting for 2 hours just to get in, and another half hour or more to get to the counter to place our orders ... only to find that 80% of what Meimei wanted to buy for herself and friends were already out of stock.
We ended the day with another great meal at Ju Shin Jung at Guillemard road before heading to the airport to meet Mama and OO.
