The Old Old and the New Young

This weekend was pretty eventful. Following my birthday dinner on Friday night, Beth had hers the following night at TinHill to commemorate her crossing into a new decade. It was a night to remember as school mates caught up with one another, best friends toasted one another and acquaintances became friends.

After whetting out appetites with either asian-style crab cakes with ginger sauce or a mushroom and watercress salad, guests had a choice of the wagyu beef burger served with hand-cut fries, miso cod pasta or the roasted chicken with root vegetables and pan jus for their main. The dessert pick of the night was an old-favourite, sticky date pudding, topped with butterscotch sauce and a scoop of vanilla bean icing. Although still not as good as Marmalade Pantry's it was better than the previous night's at Spruce. The dinner was concluded with Ivan's homemade vanilla and chocolate-chip birthday cake smothered in delectable green tea icing and white wine which guests enjoyed as conversations continued into the night. The evening was capped off with late night celebratory dancing as guests went to Zouk to get the other party started.
