Monday, May 12, 2008 The wine bar.... aka Water and wine... Boss was in his bestest mood last friday... so he decided to treat me, baoyue and huiyi a drink at the wine bar located in Biopolis... Out of our expectation, the wine bar waas pretty packed as compared to the empty shop we see everyday... About 80% were ang moh... they are the ones who know how to pamper themselves and relax at the end of the day... how i wish i could be like them.... There was this one-for-one promotion over there. It's not like buy 1 get 1 free... it's more like one person buy a glass of wine, they give u the 2nd glass for free... so yup... i had 2 glasses of sweet wine that day.. Not too bad.. initally, it tasted like any other alcohol drinks... but then, after each slip, the sweetness and the fruity taste began to surround my tongue. the waiter who recommended me the drink said that sweet wine is more of a lady wine, lesser alcohol content... We also had some side dishes like sausages, tarts, Italian cheese, new zealand cheese and BLUE CHEESE... I actually fall in love with cheese that day... i think cheese really goes well with the sweet wine I had... well, as for the blue cheese aka mouldy cheese, it's way too salty for me... so i shall stick to Italian and new zealand cheese next time.... As huiyi couldnt take any alcohol, boss ordered this "fine" water for her... it costs $6 for a bottle of water from japan.... nothing special... but the bottle look very classy... we were served with their slanted drinking glasses.. unique... sometime imperfect matters can look beautiful... While we were drinking, we crapped alot among ourselves and also with Boss... everyone was in their relax mode... i think it must be the alcohol... Boss no longer put up his I-am-the-boss look, we chatted like friends... laughed like good old pals... it kind of a nice feeling to be able to do such things with my colleagues and boss.... We decided to call off the day at around 8.30pm.... well, time flies when ppl enjoyed themselves... 2hrs of fun just flew by .... The moment i stepped off my high chair, my first experience of drunkness hit me... Abit of wishy-washy feeling... had to steady myself before i walked.... Wah... that's the effect of 2 glass of wine in me... I'm one pretty lousy drinker... hahhaa... but baoyue also had the same feeling.. so i'm not alone... hehehe ^-^ As huiyi was rushing off to her cousin's wedding dinner, we shared a cab home... by the time, i reached home, i was back to normal... maybe my body managed to metabolize the alcohol along our way home... Here are the photos we took that day: Boss pouring out the very expensive water from japan.. Baoyue looked drunk??!! Me looking not so drunk.. Nice collection of wines. Yummy side dishes.. toothpicks.. aka wine corks.. creative idea.. YueN signing off... rainy day.. |
