Birthday Lunch
I first came to this tea salon, about four months back. My best friend Eva gave me a box of Earl Grey from TWG a while back. I had read about TWG some time back, and upon realising that it was just across my gym, I decided to check it out. I wanted to purchase their yummy macaroons that I read about in newspapers. I ended up buying about a dozen or so macaroons after my boxing session, I know what a waste of calories right, but it was worth it. I also ended up buying my all time favourite tea, Earl Grey. Hahaha 
but there were so many to choose from, I finally settled on the French Earl Grey, hints of bergamot and vanilla, perfect combination, most suited to drink sans sugar to fully appreciate the flavours.
Anyways, I got hooked on the tea and macarons and decided that I’d be celebrating my birthday there with my buddy Joyce. We came too early for afternoon tea so we took a while to decide on what to indulge in. We tried this really yummy crab sandwich which used brioche. It was so good and buttery. We also tried their tomato soup, quite lovely and comforting. We ordered a pot of Amour de Thé which was a sweetly scented rose tea. We also ordered scones that were warm and delicious especially when dolloped with cream and jam. Heavenly 
Of course we ordered a sampling of macarons and a tart which I can’t seem to recall what it’s called, was it Singapore Surprise hmm it was a while back. Anyway’s the tart had a similar feel to a typical creme brulee but had a tart and sweet filling in the middle. What I like best about TWG would be their extensive tea collection and their honest to goodness yummy scones!

This year we celebrated Adik’s 23rd birthday at Earle’s with really great steaks and sausages. The meat was cooked to perfection, juicy and tender. We ordered Charbroiled T-bone steaks, Grilled Lobster pasta, Surf and Turf, Grilled Cod with Rice, Poultry Combo, Mango Shrimps, Baked Ocean Mussels and for dessert, an Apple Crumble in a sizzling pan topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream which was really yummy. My favourite main I would have to say would be the Poultry Combo. The smoked duck was out of this world and the snail sausage was soooo good. The smoked duck didn’t taste gamey at all, perfectly smoked…wishing I had some now I’ve always found Earle to provide a much better selection then its normal outlets. The cuts of meat here were much better then the ones I tried at outlets in the city where it was either overcooked, dry and frankly quite a dissapointment despite requesting for a medium steak.It’s been six months since we’ve been to Vivocity, wonder when are we going to Earle’s again though.

Mummy’s birthday was on Tuesday, but I didn’t have time to get a cake for her. Instead I bought a collection of cakes from Epidor. Strawberry Shortcake, Blackforest, Tiramisu, Coco Exotic, Chocolate Obsession, Mango Delight and Chocolate Classico well from what I could remember anyways I like the Coco Exotic, it has a crispy layer at the bottom of the slice, so there’s different textures with every bite. Hmm I could do with a slice right now, but they’re all gone 
Yummy cakes at a fraction of the cost from Canele’s. And no, I didn’t finish them all by myself
