We went to Orchard Road for our 2018 Christmas date. Orchard Road is well decorated with Disney theme on year 2018 and you can see long queue of people waiting their turns to take photos with Mickey and Minnie. Before we leisurely strolling along the Orchard Road, we fed our tummy well first with Christmas set menu in Alley Bar. We stumbled upon this cafe and the dim environment attracted our attention and thus Alley Bar became the place for our warm Christmas dinner.
There is a long bar table in the cafe and a number of high tables which diners can sit and watch the chefs cooking your dinner through a big transparent mirror beside you. As it is Christmas time, we can see Christmas tree in the cafe and staffs wearing Christmas hats etcetera, Christmas feeling in the air! There are background musics and songs playing along as well when you enjoy your dinner. We can easily spend few hours over there are drinks and desserts to end your main course, along with the candelit table settings and dim lighting, the time passed just like a swing!
Le hubby opted for main course of mushroom and bacon carbonara, and I chose peranakan fried rice. The foods taste average, luckily is not very salty type. Peranakan fried rice is filled with spices which I quite fond of and topped with tender chickens. Mushroom and bacon carbonara is not really to my liking, but the portion of mushroom is actually a big serving which is a plus! For drinks, we ordered lychee martini, to my surprise, it was actually quite good, it was the first time I tried on martini and it is sweet but 'spicy' to throat at the same time. After the main course, we ended our dinner with dessert belgian waffles with berries and vanilla ice cream. Sweet treat for us in the Christmas night!
