JT's farewell luncheon with JL, Y, V and I at Club Chinois. They now undercut JNC by a full S$10, and discounting a small handful of ill-advised fusion fusses and minor blunders (indicated by *), could there be a finer place to fritter the afternoon away? Laura Fygi in the background is vaguely unsettling though.

*1. Suan ni bai rou, "Bovril sauce type" (JL)
2. Deepfried crustacean comets
3. Bicellular har kow with English mustard
4. Yam croquette surreptitiously strewn with parsley, which is "always the wrong erb" (Y)
5. Salmon sashimi with an "aged richness" (JL) which induces harmonised pleasure-groans
6. Quick-fried squid-prawn bounce-blossoms with sugar peas in shellfish bisque
7. Braised-deepfried seabass-cod with fragrant mushrooms
8. Rack of lamb with mango salsa and carrotcake cubes
*9. Salmon in dragon's beard sliver-cocoon with chilli sauce two ways
*10. Caesar salad of uncommon sweetness
11. Suckling crackling
12. Assorted Chinese charcuterie
13. Veal tenderloin cubes in pepper sauce
14. Phoenix claws
15. Chinese spinach in high-grade soup with three eggs
*16. Waterlogged century eggs, potent sort
17. Ziggurat of spinach-smeared tofu and nameko mushrooms
18. Hua diao herbal chicken elixir
*19. Seafood dumpling in Penang laksa-borshcht-minestrone
20. Braised shark's fin with steamed egg and silversprouts
21. Wasabi mayo prawns (this I think enjoys undeserved celebrity, along with miso cod)
22. Summerberry tiramisu
*23. Wallaby foetus, fallen into bowl of boiling almond milk
24. Mango otak-blancmange with succulent hairs of pomelo
25. Chng tng-guilinggao

Photo shoot in the Club 21 gallery linking the Four Seasons and the Hilton, the one with the perfectly ergonomic chairs which demand uprightness and poise of you.
Models splayed on glass panel.
Peranakan marriage parody, ossified postures, seated bride and groom laterally separated by long austere altar on which rests a stunningly incongruous designer vase containing gnarled Pocky-pretzel plants.
Derring-do around a toilet bowl, naughty dalliance at the urinals, more Magritte mirror-compositions.

I would appreciate more visual materials, to make your blog more attractive, but your writing style really compensates it. But there is always place for improvement

I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup? I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost
a pretty penny? I'm not very internet savvy so I'm not 100% positive.
Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kudos
