Forlino Italian Restaurant @ One Fullerton

Seriously.. heartache!!!

It's 21st March 2010, the first month =)

Wanted to dine at this Italian Fine Dining Restaurant for quite a while, cause everytime saw the food directory outside butter's entrance.
look nice.. furthermore keep finding good reviews on this restaurant on the web.
So went to eat.. (^^)

Oh ya.. you know why heartache?
CAUSE I NV BRING CAMERA TO SUCH BEAUTIFUL AND ROMANTIC PLACE!!!
stupid and wasted right.. sian.. ok.. cause its quite a last min thingy. I don't have a camera with me. My phone's batt was totally flat and couldn't even on at all and Roy's phones don't have camera.. first time ever met times when i don't even have 1 (phone) camera.

Due to time constraint i have no time to go back home and take.. tsk......!!!!!!!

so very irritatingly and badly, i went internet and search for the photos. however i only can get these pathetic few which look totally the same as what i ate..

We had 2 different set menus. I had the "Gourmet" Menu and he had the "Degustation" Menu.

Let me start with my

"GOURMET MENU"

There is this opening dish which is called Amuse Bouche.

It's a dish which 2 slices of salman and a small tiny cup of "mash cauliflower".. errr... this "bread" is nice la.. but the cauliflower thingy very weird taste.. i don like it...
