Loh gong zai's birthday celebration 2014 with his 2 wives @ Arossa!

I did something rather exciting this afternoon and if anything comes out of it, i will share it at a later time.

Today is loh gong zai's belated birthday celebration and we headed to Arossa at Scotts Square...



it was a nice cozy quiet restaurant. The door host who was probably a japanese wasn't particularly friendly but the rest of the staffs did make sure that we had a good time. There was this Malaysian guy whom i forgot to take down his name, his service was excellent. He was friendly and offered us good suggestions to our meal.



we were first served a basket of bread with some olive dippers. I like the dippers a lot!









for starters we shared a burrata cheese with parma ham. Which was decent (kind of hard to go wrong with this dish)...




for pastas, we ordered 3 different pastas and they were all pretty amazing.

Minako chose a crab meat linguine... cooked in tomato cream sauce ($22)




it is done kind of al dente stayle. the noodles were springy and the sauce was great.



i chose for loh gong zai a spinach blackened ravioli with lobster stuffings cooked in a lobster bisque sauce ($28). It was so amazing as well!






the skin was thin and the texture was just right. the lobster fillings were also a decent amount. The lobster bisque was just right. Not too blend neither was it too much. It was great!



I had the parppardelle with beef cheeks in red win sauce ($25)....






check out how thin the parppardelle is. It was so good i felt like i could cry. hahahaha.. as in i really felt like i can eat this every day! The texture was so bouncy and i felt so touched by the texture - i know it sounds really exageratting but i really like it alot!



we also ordered a T-Bone steak rack to share ($128). The T-bone steak unfortunately also made me cry - In a bad way. It was so lousy! Firstly, the steak did not have that typical beefy taste that racks generally come with. The addition of the balsamic vinegarette made it worse. For that price im sorely disappointed.....









it was so bad that even the fatty parts did not have that strong beefy taste. The fries were nice though.



managed to pull together a little surprise for loh gong zai, thanks to the staffs...















loh gong zai is a lucky chap! how many guys can have their 2 wives get together so cohesively?? hahahaha









Happy Birthday my loh gong zai! Thanks for being the great friend that you are! BFF FOREVER!
