Things that are colorful make me happy. Things that are sweet make me happy too. These colorful and sweet things can be found at Canelé Pâtisserie Chocolaterie 😉 A few weeks ago, three other food bloggers and I arranged to meet up for dinner and desserts right here at this very place.
Since there were four of us, the 50% off for every 2nd main course was perfect. Anyway, this is a really really delayed post because I have been really really busy. I don’t even have time to read food blogs now 🙁 Yup, I just wanna get this over and done with so I’ll let the photos do the talking yeah? 😛
My dinner companions for the night! We were all smiles when the food finally arrived and we started clicking away with our cameras 🙂 You know, the usual food blogger ritual. Haha! 😛
Glenn’s Seafood Ravioli ($22.50). This is a home-made pasta dish that is filled with sauteed mussels, scallops and prawns with white wine. Served with a pink tomato sauce.
Rachel had the Savory Crepes with sautéed mushroom, ham, flambéed with white wine ($14.50).
Jer Lin also opted for the Savory Crepes but hers consisted of Roasted chicken, figs compote, tomato, gruyère cheese sauce($13.50). Both classic french style pancakes were served with salad.
My choice of Tomato White Wine Seafood Stew ($19). Classic Italian style seafood stew with squid, prawns, mussels and clams flavoured with white wine, garlic, onion, Italian parsley, chillies and tomato.
All braises and stews are served with a choice of pasta or homemade breads and I chose to have their homemade bread to go along with my seafood stew. Looks kinda like Sara Lee cakes to me! My childhood indulgence..
All of us shared desserts. The Opera cake ($8) was my favorite of the lot. I guess it’s because I’m a coffee lover. I’m not a coffee addict though. The cake was a bit too moist but then again, it might have been left on the shelf for too long.
Glenn and Jer Lin seem to rate the Macha cake($7) pretty well.
The L’Amour ice cream ($8) was no doubt Rachel’s favorite. We could see that she really enjoyed this! A bit too girly for Glenn maybe? 😛 The rose petal ice cream with raspberry swirl was really fragrant and I love biting onto the rose meringue sticks.
Rachel has already blogged about this some time back. Do check out Glenn’s and Jer Lin’s blogs from time to time too! 😀
