Being the dreamy person that she is, we took her to the Flutes at the Fort. The setting was just beautiful, dining on the verandah of an old house amidst nature.
For starters, we shared scallops, roo and foie gras. I enjoyed well-grilled duckling for my main while Bee had venison, Ernie had cod and Nadia had her lamb. We admitted the mains were better than those at Senso but everything else couldn't be outdone by the Italian restaurant with superb customer service.
The desert round was a letdown. The sugar crust of the crème brûlée was so thick and hard I had to really whack it with the spoon. The chocolate fondant, being a fondant, was good but badly paired up with a super-sour passionfruit sorbet.
Will I take Helmut there? No. The wine list was short. Not to mention a tiny table on a different floor to smoke at. I'd rather take him to Senso for another dinner.
But hey, the four of us enjoyed ourselves. After all, it's the company that counts!
