12 & 24 for the weirder asks please 🍂🍂🍂
🍂🍂🍂
12. What kind of day is it?
Somewhat surprisingly after the extremity of the rain yesterday, today is gloriously clear and cool and sunny and I’m going to get my kit on and go for a nice walk in the park with Richard Hannay as my companion (I’m listening to the 39 Steps as part of an August Reading Challenge - it completes the prompts ‘something exciting’ and ‘audiobook’)
24. if we were together on a rooftop, what would we be doing?
I like to think the rooftops we’d clamber up to would be the battlements of ruined castles or the bell towers of churches, either way excellent spots for conjuring up stories to tell each other

this video, tom scott vs irving finkel the royal game of ur playthrough international table top day 2017, has THE most powerful wizard energy i have ever seen anywhere on or off the internet. it is literally just two nerds playing a board game but one of the nerds has the most magnificent white beard imaginable and the board game is 4500 years old and the rules were translated from cuneiform and both players DEFINITELY walked out of a pratchett novel like yesterday and the words "i am rather intrigued to discover that my opponent, who looks like a perfectly civilized person, is in fact mathematically capable" are uttered. you couldn't possibly write this. the energy in that room must've been off the charts whimsical just brimming with potential. if someone in this video had started hovering i would not have questioned it

37th Week Celebrations at Les Amis
To celebrate the 37th week of our little bundle of joy, my wife and I celebrated the occasion at one of the most celebrated restaurant in Singapore, Les Amis, with three-star accolades from Michelin Guide and a coveted spot in Asia’s Top 50 Restaurants.
To enjoy a full experience, we decided on the seven-course Degustation menu featuring the finest dishes from the restaurant featuring top quality ingredients from sustainable sources such as scallop, caviar, river caught wild salmon, line caught seabass, and Challans ducks.
Appetizers are simply magical with three exquisite dishes which provides diners with a quick peek at the delights to come.
Le tartare de saumon au caviar: River caught wild salmon tartare with special selection of caviar.
One of our favorite dishes of the evening is the decadent salmon tartare with a thick layer of caviar on top, served with fried moist sourdough. Each mouthful is heaven on earth, leaving a smile on your face and a skip in your heart.
La noix de Saint-Jacques d’Erquy, cuite au four sans coloration, sauce iodée aux algues du Cotentin: Slow roasted scallop from the coast of Erquy with savoury seaweed sauce.
The sweet plump scallop paired with the slightly acidic aromatic sauce and a crispy disc is a masterclass in the delicate balance of flavors and textures.
Étuvée de cèpes « à la Bordelaise » caviar d’aubergines: Cep mushrooms cooked “à la bordelaise” & eggplant caviar with touch of olive oil.
These mushrooms are so meaty and juicy, comparable to high quality wagyu steaks. The eggplant caviar rounds off the dish for a truly satisfying and comforting dish.
Le potage à la châtaigne d’Ardèche: Silky velouté made with seasonal Ardèche chestnuts.
The velvety rich soup is adored with melt-in your-mouth pork belly and foie gras, much like jewels on a culinary crown of excellence.
Le bar de ligne cuit sur peau, sauce au verjus: Line-caught seabass roasted with touch of thyme & pepper served with verjus sauce.
The seabass is flaky and moist, punctuated by the full bodied sauce, to create a flavor profile that I have never tried before. It was a noble attempt at a difficult protein though it was our least favorite item of the evening.
Le canard de Challans rôti sur sa poitrine, poire « Beurré Hard y » caramélisée, ravigoté au gingembre: Roasted Challans duck breast from Vendée accompanied with ginger caramel pear.
This dish is Les Amis: Executed with perfection and true artistry, raising its culinary possibilities to its full potential, unleashing wave after wave of delectable flavors on the palate of diners, Every bite is just pure bliss, and in my culinary scoreboard, this is a 9.5 with the 0.5 reserved for its next evolution to new heights of greatness.
Before our main dessert, we are served with one of the best dark chocolate cakes in the city, comprising of layers of chocolate ganache, hazelnut feuilletine, chocolate sponge and coated with a silky chocolate glaze. And the best part? You can purchase it from the restaurant for your enjoyment at home.
La figue de Solliès, dans une boule en sucre soufflé: Variations of Sollès fig in a crisp sugar sphere.
Faced with such an innovative dish using such a difficult ingredient, I find myself running out of superlative terms to describe it. It is just simply a dessert lover’s dream come true.
And for the big no-brainer question of the day: Would I return again and recommend this restaurant to everyone?
Quite simply yes because Les Amis embodies the very essence of what it means to be the best in the highly competitive culinary scene. Les Amis has captured my heart and my stomach, and my wife and I will return again to the restaurant with our little angel to celebrate our next milestone in life.
In the meantime, Au revoir - until we see each other again...
