BF and I planned to start our Valentine celebration early as he is on standby on actual day.
He brought me to Ember restaurant for dinner, just located at hotel 1929. As the road was closed for the Thaipusam festival, bf had to park his car further away from the restaurant. And damn it, I wore the wrong heels and the pain was biting on my skin. I had a hard time trying to walk normally. haha. But despite this, the pain was still worth it!

I was impressed by the outlook of the restaurant, its an open concept with glass panels looking out to chinatown streets, layout is simple and nice. A fine bistro restaurant that was located at chinatown. Luckily there wasn't any disturbance of noise or it would have been a turn-off for the night. I hate it when people laughed and giggled so loudly from other tables. It would spoil anyone's Valentine night. For mains, bf ordered the pork belly while I had the truffle seabass by recommendation from the waitress. The seabass was one of the fish I have tried and the best I will remember! Tender and soft.. We also had the soft shell crab and I need to add this: they served really nice sauces!



For dessert, we had the warm chocolate cake with vanilla ice-cream. The molten chocolate was oozing out and melting into our mouths. The food quality did not fail to my expectations. We had a great evening there.

As the night was still young, we decided to pop by Seventh Heaven for some nice ice-cream. It's an "only for adults" ice-cream parlour! They served alcoholic ice-creams and proud to say, I am a great fan of alcoholic stuffs although I am a lousy drinker. =)
The cafe is tucked inside a ulu place at the Marketing Institue of Singapore. It will not be easy to find your way there without any street directory or GPS.

As it was our first time trying out, we opted for the three ice-cream sampling at S$13.80. They came in three different flavours of our choices. Nice place for chats but the place could revamp into something more cozier. I will definitely be there again, this time to try other alcoholic flavours! hehe..
