Johor's T bowl

J & I went in to Johor after work on Friday for the weekend to conduct some site visit for wedding venue. Was starving by the time we reached Johor @ 9pm, we walked around City Square, deciding what to have for dinner and ta-dah, we chanced upon T bowl- a toilet-themed restaurant similar to that in Taiwan. 
We ordered a banana chocolate blended (RM8.90) that was served in a mini toilet bowl haha. Was so hungry that I totally forgot to take a photo of J's food haha, he ordered cheese baked rice with smoked duck (RM16.90). And I had the double boiled ginseng and drumstick soup with rice (RM9.90).
Total bill came up to RM41.25 after taxes. Even though I was starving, I felt that the food was pretty average, don't think I will be back here again, sorry.

Weekend Wedding Dinner:
Saturday- $1188.00++ per table of 10 persons
Sunday- $1108.00++ per table of 10 persons

Pros:
  • Sufficient reception area
  • Well-renovated
  • Relatively cheap package when there's a special promotion
  • Many rooms available for solemnization
  • Complimentary 2 bottles of wine per confirmed table
Cons:
  • Low ceiling for the orchid ballroom
  • Weird layout for the crystall ballroom
  • Pillars
Reason for not shortlisting H.I Orchard: Few weeks after checking out H.I. orchard, J's friend said that he had a bad experience with the food during his friend's wedding, the fish wasn't that fresh, so J did not want to take the risk haha.

Happy Birthday, Sis!

Sis selected Mad for Garlic for lunch, it was my virgin experience, and I was really impressed with the food quality! I have to say that every dish was mind-blowing and makes you drool just thinking about it. Will definitely bring J to try it!
We ordered the signature set @ S$45.00++ which comes with a caesar salad, garlic pasta, garlic rice and 2 drinks and we added their signature dish- garlic snowing pizza. Super delicious, a very satisfying meal :D
 
Thanks Dad for the treat!

Next, dinner was on me, at Strictly Pancakes @ East Coast. We ordered the following to share:
Potatoes Leeking Cheese S$12
Garlic Buttered Prawns S$15
Salmon Run S$15


I love the garlic buttered prawns dish, it was so yummy, super creamy and aromatic! ♥

Total bill: $49.40

Happy Birthday, Sis!! XoXo
