Deardear brought me to an Italian restaurant named La Forketta to eat on last Monday since I was off coz I claimed my Hari Raya off-in-lieu. It's another upmarket restaurant located at Dempsey Hill. It has a nice ambience as we sat outside at the veranda area... kinda feel like I was in some european country.
However, the food was just so-so... not considered fantastic. Every table was served with the bread basket as a starter which looks like this...
Each basket costs $4.90 in case you think it's complimentary... but if you don't want it, just like the staff know.
Then we also ordered other starters which includes a parma ham salad and a bowl of prawn bisque.
The waiter served us with the wrong salad at first, and only realized it after we have scooped up some of it onto our own plates. Luckily we have not eaten it coz we were busy taking pictures of the food. Hahaa. We were told that they have served us with the tuna salad by mistake, so they took it back and served us with the correct one. Here's how the tuna salad looks like... by the way, this is just a portion of it that was scooped onto my own plate.
Then comes the main dishes... Deardear ordered the seafood linguine and I ordered the slipper lobster spagetti. The seafood linguine's presentation definitely looks more appetizing than the slipper lobster spagetti! As for their taste, I personally prefer the seafood linguine as there's a variety of seafood to eat while mine was quite boring...
Anyway, the total cost of this meal added up to about hundred plus... I don't know the exact amount coz Deardear paid for it. =P

After dinner, we then went to Orchard Rd for some shopping... As it was already quite late, most shops were closing, so we went to Borders instead just to past time. Deardear wanted to look for books on wine, so I just walked around alone. Had some fun searching for Wally in the 'Where's Wally?' book! Kekeke...
Just before we went home, we had ice cream at Gelatissimo outside Shaw House. =)
