Pavilion and Star Bar

My OOTN :]

Self timer at Central Station
Check out my make-shift puffed sleeves :P

Just a chilled night out with two of my girls at the city to celebrate Jess finishing her first year of Uni wooo! And if you're wondering why I'm dressed "mature" (lol) I'm not sure either, I felt like it at the time.   Jess pointed out that she's seen my necklace worn by a model which made my smile from ear to ear :]

Anyone know which one she's referring to? :P

We spent our night in two bars (Pavilion and Star Bar) drinking and talking despise the loud music. We did a little dancing but that wasn't the point of the night lol. I thought Star Bar's interior was ze bomb! You'll feel like you're in space hence the "Star Wars" inspired design. The Pavilion Bar  had cheaper drinks though.

Taken on Regie's iPhone LOL

I found Star Bar's bathroom so trippy :]

Midori & pineapple juice; Vodka & Redbull; Alize & lemonade; $5 cocktail of the night (I didn't catch the name)

These 3 guys (below) approached us at the end of the night. I found them so funny, especially the Japanese guys - they are so animated! :P They said they came in Australia 2 weeks ago and their Chinese mate is showing them around.

I taught them the English alphabet yay ^^ They still need to work on the accent though hehe.

Fine Dining

Reghimself and I were invited (by our friend, Mary Pham) to dine at a training restaurant called The Apprentice located at Ultimo. Similar to where I study, both the waiters/waitresses and chefs are students who are training to provide a fine dining service.

We arrived quite late due to the heavy rain causing delays to the train. Since we are so skilled at eating we caught up with the crowd :]

Here's some snaps!

 Reghimself's appetiser: Grilled Salmon Pressed Sushi

My appetiser: Caprese Custard
[Caprese (kap-ray-zee) salad is a classic Italian appetiser. Salad of freshly sliced tomatoes interleaved with slices of mozzarella, torn basil leaves and dressed in olive oil]

The maitre D' and also our waitperson for the night.

Pretty pleased with his orders haha

Table #5: trying out some Pinot Noir!

Well done Mary ^^

My entree: Fried Stuffed Mushrooms with Creamy Spinach
It was yummy as! Definitely my fave dish for the night!

Reghimself's entree: Spiced Chicken and Lentil Salad

My main course: Pork Chops with Carrot and Parsnip Puree and Cider Sauce

Reghimself's main course: Greek Style Lamb Rack with Grilled Polenta and Zucchini

Pour me another glass of water please :D

My Dessert: Green Tea Mille Crepe with Fruits

Reghimself's dessert: Goat's Cheese Cake with Raspberry Glaze
I'm a fan of goat's cheese now!

Some deets! We only had to pay $30 all together ($15 p/h)! Our first drinks which was the wine were free ^^
Really great deal! 

We headed to the station right away only to find out that our train will be delayed to another hour! We took more photos around the station but didn't go far cos everywhere was wet -.-

Look! No hands!

I ended up sleeping on his shoulders the whole trip back (with a little drool here and there.. haha).

Thanks for reading!
