Candlelight..
Do you believe in posh restaurants, beautiful flowers, expensive chocolates, teddy bears and love letters during Valentines’ Day? Did you book a place to enjoy a romantic dinner and enjoyed the scenery?
For me, nothing was planned and I did not expect those either but it turned out to be an enjoyable day nonetheless.
Me and B was looking for a place to settle our dinner at 9+. Hawkers and Mcdonalds’ came into consideration as I was hungry and wanted something fast.. However, we somehow ventured into Coffee Club as it looked rather cosy.. sure enough, it was a nice environment to end Valentines’ day in..

Crusted Dory Gremolata
My choice was dory fish baked with breadcrumbs with gremolata on potatoes. Gremolata is a chopped herb condiment typically made of garlic, parsley, and lemon zest. Bits of sausages are hidden betwen the potatoes and the fish as well. (: I love this dish! The fish was tasty with sauce and the occasional breadcrumbs provided great texture contrast with the crumbly fish too.. I love dabbing bits of fish and potatoes with the sauce..

Alfredo
B’s order.. Pasta with ham and mushroom. Surprise, it’s not fish and chips!
The ambience was great and it made me feel so blissful as I can flip through magazine while relaxing on a big soft red chair, warming my cold hands with the red candles while dining and listening to love songs… and most importantly with the loveliest company.. it was lovely seeing the smiles on everyone’s faces as they sit, relax and chat..
This rounds up our simple dinner..
My phone camera failed me this time..

aaaww! what a great night! lol, hawker or mcdonald’s for valentine’s dinner? that’s probably where I’d have chosen for my date! but your fish looks freaking delicious! I wonder how I can recreate that at home?
but anyway, DITTO on white rice! why waste good stomach space on empty calories like that?
oh, and how do you pronounce marche? I say it “mar-shay” but not sure…
