Happy 1st anniversary :)

I know... Our anniversary was a month ++ ago but we had been too caught up in our work to go out for a celebration.
Nevertheless, we finally had a weekend together for a special celebration!!

And where else but Morton's steakhouse @ Mandarin Oriental hotel!!
So so exciting!!!

Tom had to force moi to wear a dress ( I HATE to wear a dress!!) and moi thinking that Morton's will be this really posh and sophisticated place relented and wore my purple dress for the first time. Turns out moi saw a couple of people in jeans and T-shirt!!
HMMPH

The ambience inside Morton's. I have to say. WHAT RECESSION???
The whole place was PACKED!! ALL the tables were taken!! WTF?

It was pretty exciting cos it's moi first time to Morton's. Our server pushed a trolley over and explain to us the special of the day, the different cuts and there's even a live lobster!! Wooooo~~

The bread was so so so delicious!! It was crusty on the outside and warm in the inside!! Especially when you spread the butter and watch it melts into the bread!! i was in heaven!!! Moi couldn't resist and had 3 big slices (Which is a huge mistake considering that our appetizer and entree are not out yet)

Entaining ourselves with this huge bottle of wine..
I wonder what will happen if i accidentally drop it?? :P

Our Caesar salad arrives!! I have to say i really love the service in Morton's!! They are really attentive! A big smile on their face! They saw us snapping pictures of each other and offered to help us take a picture together. NOT just once but throughout the time when we were there. They also offered to split our Caesar salad into two portions!

Tom look so good in this picture!! :)
CHEERS!!

That's my rib eye steak. Moi usually asked them to cook it medium rare but there was this once when the medium rare turns out RARE and bloody... *faint*

BLEAH~ Ever since then,i prefer my steak done medium pleaseeee

I have to say, their steak is HUMOGOUS!!!

That's how medium looks! Pink in the middle!!

our huge baked Idaho potato share into two portions.

Topped with sour cream and bacon bits


Tom ordered a double cut filet Mignon cooked medium RARE!!!


And i have to say it sure looks pretty rare to me!!

Tom looking really satisfied. He finished the whole steak

As for moi, i was so stuffed with the bread and everything that i left almost a third left.
That's probably S$30 gone to waste

If you like, you could even purchase the Morton's Steak bible for S$50



Our bill.
(yesh, i would say Morton's is pretty expensive compare to even Lawry's down at Paragon)



I was trying to fold the napkin and Tom kept taking photos of me.
I PROTEST!!

Yesh! Taken by one of the Morton's servers while he was on his way to the toilet. He offered to help us take a photo without asking. Beat that!

After dinner, we headed down to Pan Pacific for a drink. They are famous for their Martinis but we decided to ordered their special cocktails

The nibbles
I love the dried mushrooms n the anchovies!!!

above our heads

Tom bought this 1st year precious moments figurines!! AWWWWW~
He was so sweet and asking moi to close my eyes and everything. The funny thing (not so funny in Tom's case) was i kinda guess he bought that and was screaming out loud with my eyes closed "You bought the precious moments figurine!! You bought the precious moment figurine!!"

So much for surprise huh, TOM?

HAPPY 1ST ANNIVERSARY

Tom and Moi had also made a pact! From now on, we are gonna go to Morton's for our anniversary and also to buy a precious moment figurine EVERY YEAR!!

*Pinkie swear* :P
