OUR 7TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

05.01.2001 : that was the fateful date that Chris was irrevocably stuck to me!!

Its been 7 amazing years since that day and I am happy to say that everyday still feels like a brand new day...

Being together for so long already, the day started off pretty 'normally'.. I had to go to work at Drs Horne and Chin at the Shaw Centre, Chris had to go and attend the weekly stem cell meeting at SGH. Work was super stressful.. patients were crowding the clinic, some were getting frustrated and were ranting away angrily... I got to do a partial nail resection!

I finished work at 12noon and Chris met me for lunch.. where else but our favourite Marriott Crossroads cafe! We had a club sandwich and Caesar salad followed by a Movenpick Maple Walnut milkshake.

After the delectable meal we then headed over to the Joo Chiat clinic to oversee the operations again. We met up with Pa at the clinic. The men helped us put up the degree scrolls and some pictures, then we drove over to the Tampines Ikea to pick up more paraphernalia ... a few stools, trolley for the pantry and the baby cots!

By the time we were done it was 7Pm and we frantically drove home in the horrendous traffic to shower and change to drive over to Sentosa for dinner at the CLIFF! My favourite restaurant in the entire state of Singapore.. chris booked it as a surprise for me... considering it doesn't really serve much MEAT or CHICKEN... this is what TRUE LOVE is all about...

Walking into the resort itself feels like being in Bali already, setting up the atmosphere for a romantic relaxing night. We are promptly greeted by the Maitre'd and shown to our seats. Menus and water are served immediately and then we are left to peruse the menu. We chose to share an entree of Wagyu beef cheek crepe with prawns, followed by pumpkin seed crusted sea bass for me and Filet Mignon for Chris. The entree was , without a doubt the best dish ... tender morsels of beef enveloped by a rich brown sauce and surrounded by succulent prawns and served with a horseradish foam.

Dessert we shared as well, choosing the raspberry souffle which was accompanied by chocolate ice-cream, thick sauce, raspberry sauce and a macaroon. We both came to the conclusion that the Cliff definitely serves one of Singapore's best desserts! The souffle was light on the tongue, the ice-cream dark and rich while the raspberry sauce perfectly complimented the macaroon.

By the time dinner was done we were both tired and full...
Thank you Chris for a wonderful dinner , and most importantly, 7 wonderful years of my life!
Love you lots!!!
