The Man's 34th


We decided to throw a birthday party for the man and have all the friends come together for a night.

Naturally, the man created a playlist, plugged in the ipod at the bar's stereo system and put it random. It was a night of good whisky, laughter and conversation.

Of course the Bowmore 15 y.o flowed freely. Along with that, we had plates after plates of tasty Tiong Bahru roast meats, wood-fired Pontini pizzas and the bar's very own bulgogi beef on lettuce.

The good people at Quaich bar generously provided truckloads of air-flown live and plump Canadian oysters for us. As if freshly shucked oysters weren't enough, they also prepped oyster shooters with Bowmore 12 y.o as a treat.

The man sorted out the invitations on fb. So yours truly, the fb dinosaur, wasn't privy to the attendance list except for a vague reference to about 25 people. For a while, I was afraid I over-ordered on food and bottles of alcohol. But when the friends streamed in at 9.30pm, it was all sorted. We probably had a good party going of 50 or so in total. Even though the friends ate a fair bit, there was a continuous line of food till midnight!

We're so glad that so many people came. We're happy that they enjoyed the single malts. The best part, the man wasn't drunk. He was completely sober when I whisked him home at 1am.

We love you guys.
