Mum's bday celebration (31 Oct)

We celebrated mum's bday today. (: Her birthday is actually on the 1st of Nov, but it's easier to get the whole family down on a weekend, so we decided on dinner today. (:

At mum's recommendation, we went to this restaurant called District 10 located in the Newton Area just off Bukit Timah Road. Nothing much to blog about. Mostly will let the pictures do the talking! (:

Us waiting for the food. (:

It was Halloween, so the staff there were dressed up.

The salads: District 10 salad and the Duck and Mango salad. I'm not much of a fan of salad, but i loved the Duck and Mango one.. They had lychee and grapes in it yums. :D

Gourmet beer battered fish and chips--> totally overrated. Don't waste your money. The fish didn't have the nice fried texture you get in fish and chips, and it was too chunky.
Roasted Baby Back Ribs with Smoky Barbeque Sauce--> Not bad. My parents loveeeeed it! I thought it was quite normal tho. The sauce was nice and the ribs tender, not too overdone. (:

Roasted Pork Belly! One of my favourite foods to eat from anywhere, the fatty parts are just so succulent and tasty! This one was a bit salty, but i liked it that way! (:

One of the sides: Deep Fried Calamari and Tiger Prawns. DON'T TRY THIS OKAY THE CALAMARI TASTES LIKE RUBBER. >.< 
Prawns still not bad..  but not worth enduring the calamari for it.

Pizzas: Black Pig Pizza and Florentia Truffle Pizza
Pizzas on the whole were GOOOOOOD! :D The Black Pig one gave large chunks of mozzarella (which happen to be one of my favs! :D) and the truffle one... well.. it's hard to go wrong with truffle. :P

The desserts!

Panacota with coconut cubes
They actually don't serve panacota on its own, but served with an apple tart. Unfortunately they ran out of apple tarts so they customised this dish for me! heehee i love pana cota and this one wasn't too bad, but Modestos' ones are so much better! :D

Chocolate Godzilla Platter
This came with Profiteroles, Brownie, Brule and Gelato. What is a Profiterole you say?? (yeah duh the whole table was puzzled too zzz) Turns out it is some homemade puff with vanilla ice cream in it. I though this was a waste of money. I mean it's chocolate, chocolate, and chocolate. Very gelat.. >.<

 Zucotto
I forgot what exactly this was supposed to be. there was a cookie, like one side of an oreo, it tasted nice with the ice cream lol. There was an ice cream cake and some other random stuff.. Another waste of money sigh.

Every year we only get to do these celebrations like 7 times. Birthdays, and Fathers' and Mothers' Day. I sometimes wish we had more things to celebrate so that we can go out and hang out more...
