And there was 8...

Today (15 feb), we had our 25/00 JC class gathering. As usual the usual suspects turned up. Most of the other guys couldn't make it as they are rushing with their FYPs. A surprise when Elaine turned up as i haven't met up with her for like ages. We met at 'Dome' in Paragon for dinner. The food was not bad. I had a seafood tomato with squid ink linguine. 8 of us turned up for the dinner: Alex aka Dabian, Baoni aka Alana now, Teresa, SQ, Michelle and her husband Steven, Elaine and me.

As you can see from the various pictures below, we're having a ball of a time..... take that those that say they're 'busy'...hahahahahha


Will her BF get jealous??

My fierce look... is it fierce enough Tyra?



okay... probably you don't REALLY get to see us having a ball of a time, but trust me, we did.

After the dinner, we headed down to P.S Cafe at Dempsy Road in SQ's car. Elaine left for a movie with her current bf (no need to really know the name as it may most likely change the next time we meet her) and Michelle and Steven left as Steven only slept for 1 hour the previous night. With only 5 people left, we managed to squeeze into SQ's car. So off we go to Dempsy. SQ tried to call the place to make reservations however no one picked up the phone, so we got to risk the possibility that there would not be a space for us. Second option would then be HOUSE also at Dempsy. Luckily, we managed to get a couch seat after 15 minutes of waiting. While waiting i saw something amazing and got my heart pumping...


Along the bar facing the entrance are rows of cakes whose sizes are rather extraordinary. This is one of the cake that i managed to take a picture of before the staff commented that photography is not allowed. These cakes are like olympic size arenas of cakeland... in China! We ordered 3 different types of cakes thinking that we could finish them as they all looked soooo tasty...

Look at the size of the cakes compared to the drinks!

Top left is the damp cake with toffee, next is the triple dark choc and lastly a orange flavored cake with a cream puff on top... all 3 came with vanilla ice-cream.

MMMMMMM.....

However..... all 3 cakes are too much of everything bad. The cake with toffee is soooooo sweet that after 3-4 bites, i feel light-headed with all the sugar... not a very good feeling though. It's really too sweet. There is a layer of cheese at the top, like those that cover carrot cakes, so...oh what calories. The triple dark chocolate cake is too big, too thick, too chocolate-y and thus too heaty for my liking. Its those cakes that after 2 mouths, you feel your throat closing up. The third cake with is recommended by SQ is the best of all... not too sweet and have a nice crunch to it.... in the beginning. However the more you eat it, the sweeter it gets. It's quite disappointing considering each cake is like $12.50. I also ordered the Hot chocolate drink (a mistake) which made my desert meal a torture for my health.

While waiting for our seats.





In my opinion, unless the cakes and drinks get better, i will not return to P.S Cafe. It seems that everything at Dempsy is all ambiance and impress more with aesthetics than quality food (HOUSE also had the same problem when i was there... baby chino is really made for babies it seems...)
However, the company is what all makes it happen. The magic, the experience, the sex talk...
