Just a week from my birthday, it was soon time for me to plan for the Boy's birthday. With his hatch day landing on a weekday, I decided to celebrate his birthday on the weekend ahead of his actual day, as I made reservations for Prive.

Hidden in a little corner from its other cafe/bar, we were introduced to a really posh and quaint area.

Somehow, we were 1 of only 3 groups of customers, which made us feel a little weird with so many eyes looking at us. But we soon got use to it, as we enjoyed really personalised service. The waitress serving us also very helpful with recommendations.

Before we started on our dishes, we were treated to a complimentary ’starter’. Unfortunately, I forgotten the name of it, but I thought that it was very nicely presented. Plus, it tasted good!

Our starter was crudo, made from hokkaido scallops, sakura prawns, olive oil, yuzu and shiroshoyu. While it was fresh and tasted great, it was seriously too tiny…

My main was the rare duck breast and confit of duck leg (left) while the Boy had the grilled kurobuta pork chop (right). Seriously, our mains were really really sumptuous! I particularly like my duck breast despite it being rare and slightly bloody. But paired with the persimmon-like fruit, the combined taste was really really nice. The pork chop on the other hand tasted really great with the apple sauce!

For dessert, we had the molten center chocolate soufflé (my first ever!) Nice, fluffy and soft, it’s no doubt it was the recommended dessert by the waitress.

So, with all these delicious dishes, it is no wonder we are such a happy couple. To me, it reminded me a lot like Fullerton’s fine dining, only that it is more affordable.

And at the end of our dinner, we were treated to nice lighting and views of the marina =)

Which of course called for another couple shot =)
Happy birthday my dear darling! =D

And just in case any of you are wondering, I got him a nice Picard card holder =)
