01:38 by FoxTwo Saturday is usually a rest-day for us, since we normally drink on Fridays. However this time it was a little different, because one of our drinking friends is leaving for a land far yonder, and we gathered to wish her well on her journey. Scratching our heads for a nice place to hold a farewell dinner-cum-drinks, another friend suggested a new place - The White Rabbit.
So, it was set. We headed to The White Rabbit.
First impression - the place was posh. It was indeed posh, as we later found out (at the bill). Secondly, it was a nice place indeed. Ambience was cosy, and best of all, food was good! Since I have already eaten dinner that day prior to us going to The White Rabbit, I only ordered side dishes and a salad.
I ordered the Macaroni and Cheese side-dish. I can't help it, I love cheese. When the dish came, I tucked in. I was actually pleasantly surprised at how good it was. The cheese was creamy, and full of texture. Everyone else also tried a small portion, and all agreed that it was good indeed. In my opinion the Mac And Cheese is the best I have ever tasted. Kudos!
She ordered something that looked yummy too. Sorry I forget the name. Here's a pic of that dish, and I wish I could remember the name now.
After dinner we ordered a whole bunch of desserts. My drinking buddy and I shared a Banana Split.
Honestly though, the banana split wasn't that fantastic. I can honestly say that Swenson's has better Banana Splits than White Rabbit. However, all is not lost. The other dessert, Mars Bars Souffle, was good!
Here it is. We were joking "Where are the Mars bars?". Seriously though, this is good too!
On the whole, we agreed that The White Rabbit had good food, and nice cosy ambience. Coincidentally, there was an event happening on that particular Saturday. It seemed that Mumm's champagne was having a promotion, and there was a free flow of Mumm's champagne out in the yard. Unfortunately though, free flow was restricted to only ladies.
We did hang around for a little bit, just so the ladies could have a go at the free champagne.
All in all, The White Rabbit is a nice place to go. However, be warned - it's not your average run-of-the-mill restaurant and bar. Expect to pay - A LOT.
