A blocked nose can still taste good food

I had an amazing dinner. Again.

Yes, bite me.

Back at Crown, but at The Brasserie by Philippe Mouchel. Lovely ambience, outdoor seating has great potential for something romantic, very popular and almost all tables were full, but there was room for improvement regarding the service.

That aside, the food was excellent.

The pork loin? Mindblowing. Just well done, not too tough, and a very generous portion of fatty bit. Mmm so good.

Need sleep. Now. To recuperate from my flu.

To Springvale tomorrow! Mmm Asian goodies... :D
