Hi! Finally back from the 2 days 1 night stay at Gallery Hotel. It's Baobei's 23rd birthday. I'd planned a total surprise for him to keep him in suspense all the while. I tried telling white lies here and there but somehow, I'm dumb enough to leak out some clues for him to guess the dinner place. However, I'd succeeded to keep mum about the dinner place till the time he was supposed to know. He's the driver for the day. I can't drive since mummy needs the car for work the following day. Thus, really difficult to lie every single detail. I'd tried my best in whatever i could.
PreparationBaobei had class from 2pm to 5pm on his Birthday. Poor boy, a test before the lesson as well on his Birthday. Its a bonus point for me since i need plenty of time to plan everything, and make sure everything goes well. Everything went well eventually. I had class at 9:30am till 12:30am. After which, I took a public to Takashimaya to collect his cake which I'd reserved earlier on. Then, I rushed home to pack my luggage. Nothing much.. just a puma hand carry which consist of my stuffs, his clothes (I've 'stolen' his clothes on Saturday morning when he had a basketball match), and some necessities that I've bought (2 travel pack toothbrush + paste, gatsby wax, facial foam). After that, i took a cab down to Gallery hotel to check in. Oh my! I'm pretty impressed with the little hotel. It isn't as exclusive as fullerton or raffles hotel. Yet, its definitely worth the price for a middle-price-range hotel.
Look at the room itself




The toilet


Then, I quickly unpack the clothes I've brought, display baobei's present neatly on the bed, and leave the birthday cake into the refrigerator before meeting baobei in town.


The celebration no. 1Took a cab back to town. Met him at heerans. We had a stroll along Orchard road till its time for dinner. Baobei was really anxious in knowing the dinnerplace's location. I kept my mouth shut yet leaking out some hints that its a buffet dinner. Damn! Anyway, we reached 15mins earlier than the reserve time (7pm) as we were as hungry as some hungry ghost. The dinner place isn't any romantic restaurant. I chose this place because of the quality of food. Its the Merchant Court buffet dinner. They didn't have much varieties. However, I ate 3 bowls of sharks' fins and Baobei ate 7 crayfish to make my money worth. lol. Typical Singaporeans. I love their durian paste!






Too full till he almost fell asleep
The celebration no. 2I lied to baobei that I'm bringing him to a pub above sound bar at gallery hotel. lol. Guess he must be really disappointed when i really brought him to a pub which we had to pass by to reach our hotel room. Its pretty class though. Anyway, sent him up to our hotel room at level 6. He was delighted to see the cosy little room of ours. He was then surprised by his birthday present, card and cake.

It has an overlapping effect. The 2nd page and 3rd page goes like this..


Cutting-the-cake ceremony



After resting for a while, we proceeded to mhd sultan's BKT. It sucks horribly. It didn't taste that bad in the past.

We went back to get our beauty sleep after such a heavy supper.
The celebration no. 3The following day, we woke up early to have breakfast at their cafeteria. Its
not complimentary by the way. A few photos for memories before we leave the hotel.

That's all folks!
