I wasn't particularly bothered about the food. The fries were awesome with chilli sauce, as usual. Tonight, for me, the original Les Bouchons at Ann Siang Road was all about the company and the drinks. We made the date a few weeks back, and it was a dinner date I looked forward to.
It was awesome catching up with the friends. These are people I can travel with easily, through all sorts of situations, knowing that individually, we can hold our own, and as a group, handle anything thrown at us. Clearly, our acquaintance on a work trip has proven so. On that work trip, I wouldn't have kept my sanity, except for their brilliant steadiness and our hilarious conversations that touched on all sorts of random subjects. We were probably glad for one another's company. Shared misery does sort of indicate diminished pain on the individual level.
Somehow, we managed to finish a bottle of dependable champagne and a rather decent bottle of burgundy which needed to breathe for half an hour. Champagne was a no brainer. The burgundy's flavors were fully released after a while, making it very smooth, layered and easy to drink. ARRRGHHH! This is not good. We are closet alcoholics. When we got ready to leave, it was 11pm! O.M.G. We hung out for 4 hours at the tiny cafe. We sure can talk nonsense. Till our next meal, people.
