I was suppose to meet a girlfriend for brunch today. She was to choose the place for us. After some thought, she told me that we were going somewhere awesome, and that it was on her. Honestly, I never imaged this. She had made reservations at Equinox. This apparently was the awesome view. Check out the day shots that I took.
Simply love the breathtaking view.
Lunch was suppose to be a buffet spread. The main course was the one we could choose. And of course Jelyn had to go for the Sirloin. And we were told that complimentary to the sirloin, was Foie gras (goose liver, as I have been told, some fancy French dish).
When it arrived, we looked hard at it. I decided to dive in and give it a taste. Hmm... I found it to be kinda okay. Jelyn just hated it, that she wanted hers taken away. I enjoyed it and found it to be rather bitter when it cooled. Come on, how often do you get a chance to eat such fancy stuff.
After this, we started off with sushi, I didn't take any pictures, as I was still warming up with the great view. It's such a beautiful view, I am so touched that my dear friend brought me here. She is such as sweetheart. So after some sushi and miso soup, we headed back to the buffet spread.
While Jelyn feasted on the huge seafood, I went along with the salad bar. Soon, Our main course arrived. My darling friend asked for medium well, while I asked for medium rare. After the steaks arrived, she felt uncomfortable as her's was still a little red. She had it sent back to be re-cooked, and we chuckled about it, as we thought how she would annoy the chief.
Once the main course was done, it was time to head the DESSERT section, my favourite.
I started out with the creme brulee and it was all good.
From there, I just savored all these. One... by one...
After some hot tea, to wash it all down, we finished our chit chat and left.
We wanted to snap some shots together, and Jelyn suggested the Awesome rest room. And she was right, it was just like the kind you see in the movies.
It was such a great day with great company and great food and a great place.
