And Happy Birthday to me.

What can I say... I dunno what came over me to choose a Japanese themed buffet, you know I don't (didn't?) usually like Jap cuisine. But Top of the M doesn't serve buffet dinner, and Ritz-Carlton was serving Indo cuisine at 66+++. So what the heck? Try la.

Turned out to be good stuff.

For some reason though, we were all rather quickly full. But when it came to dessert, there was green tea ice cream which was so good, I actually thought it was pistachio at first. I had taken a plate full of desserts (brulee, cheesecakes...) so my mom decided to relieve me of my ice cream first and take some more for me when she was finished.

Except by the time she went to take more, it was already replaced with vanilla.

So after we were all full, my mother wanted to wait for them to bring the green tea ice cream out again and take a second round before we left. Since I saw that the vanilla ice cream was almost gone, I enquired casually about the green tea ice cream.

Minutes later it was out again.

My mother gasped when she saw my prize. We snapped a couple of photos of her looking elated, and I couldn't resist doing this to one of the photos...
