Vankyle: The cost of love

Nd told me that he heard on the radio...saying that Singaporean was rated 1st in the world for most money spent on Vday, with an average of $500. It seems like a huge sum to me at first.. but den i realised... its Singapore after all. The cost of living here is relatively high and so obviously the cost of love is high as well.

Most of the restuarants changed to set menu on Vday, with a charge of $100+ bucks per pax.

so 2 pax = $200+++

Most guys will buy a bouquet of flowers, even though i think its extremely unneccesary, and the price of roses will be jack up to bout $70-90 per bouquet, depending on size.

And if you add in a nice practical and decent gift, its about $100++ or so.

So actually it not difficult at all to hit that figure.

wat an expensive day!

Me and nd had dinner at Le Papillon. It a pretty and cosy restaurant at Red Dot Traffic. And their food is pretty good. Every dish from the appetizer down to the desserts were good and exquiste. Their Vday menu was quite worth it ($108 per pax) compared to other restaurants which serve simple salads and soups followed by main course.

They gave us a free shooter (watermelon juice with a tinge of tobasco sauce) Sounds gross but taste pretty refreshing!

There's complimentary champhagn for us... and each lady gets to recieve a red rose from the restaurant! so sweet right..

and there's 5 dishes, including desserts.

The important thing is that... you actually FEEL FULL after the meal... because usually at such fine-dining restuarants, the portions are real small.

I highly recommend the place for Vday next year!
