One Rochester

Wonder if anyone does still read EFF.... :) It's been a long while since i last posted. Have been extremely busy for the past couple of months. New challenges, new goals and new directions. All for a better future, i guess.

Anyway GF and i went for a drink @ One Rochester. Was supposed to check out the fantastic Bak Kut Teh at Woodlands, untill she ordered a Cheesy Lava pizza for a late lunch bite. With a full dinner out of the picture, we decided to check out the new establishment at Rochester Park which is just opposite of the MOE HQ at Buona Vista.

We went One Rochester, a cosy joint with great ambience. It's the first house we hit after the stairs leading to up from the carpark. Lush foliage and stone paths leading to various pockets of seating areas for different crowds. We were ushered to a small little section with the whole area to ourselves( Not much human traffic today, sunday evening perhaps? ). Kind of the place you would like to bring your SO to laze around and chat over some drinks and nibbles.

An extensive range of wines and drinks, but the non-alcoholics might have to stick to the SDG$6 soft drink or SGD$3.50 ice water ( bottled ). Ordered the Lychee Martini for myself and Anita for the lady.

( Special note form the GF : Anita is just a fancy name for Fruit Punch )
The accompanying nibble for my drink, Fish Tempura.

Looks promising. GF loves the place and the setting at One Rochester. Can't wait to check out the rest of the guys at Rochester Park ( Min Jiang, Graze...). Especially the Cast Iron Pan breakfast at Graze which i read off Chubby Hubby
