This is a late post on my Valentine's Day lunch! Had lunch with my colleague, JY, at Tatsu in Chijmes. Tatsu is one of our favourite Japanese haunt in Chijmes, they serve one of the most authentic Japanese food in Singapore.
JY recommended their ultra sweet tomato, and I was skeptical, cos I don't like to eat raw tomato! I only eat grilled tomato, and that is if I feel like it! Other than that, I try not to touch them. Anyway, I was convinced by the ever helpful waitress to give the $3 a piece tomato a try.
And it was absolutely the sweeeeeetest tomato ever! It doesn't have the tomato-ey taste that I hate. It taste like a really ripe plum! Yum! It was served cut into quarters with a pinch of salt at the side. The waitress said to take the first bite without the salt to really taste the sweetness. With or without salt, this must be the sweetest tomato ever! Worth the $3 :)

I ordered the lunch set meal, which consist of some sushi, tempura, and some other sides dishes. The picture below showed some of the side dishes served, before the main course.
When I went back to the office, J's flowers are waiting for me at my desk! A dozen of bright pink roses! I am still wondering when will my hints of "tulips" be taken note? Oh well, it's the thought that counts! Love getting flowers from J! :)
Later on that night, we went to to Thai Express for dinner to avoid the Valentine's Day crowd! It was a nice and cosy evening. Thai Express had a scaled down menu for that night, but we had our favourites, which was the Tom Yum Seafood with Glass Noodles. And of course, the Thai Iced Tea....I can never get enough of that stuff!
Thanks, JY for being my lunch companion and J for the lovely evening. :)
