20th Wedding Anniversary Dinner at Catalunya

Catalunya is situated at The Fullerton Pavillion, a stand alone pavillon with a rooftop for private parties and wondeful view of Marina Bay.

The decor of the place is nice though the tables are quite close together. The vibes on entering the restaurant is lively, a happening place. We were ushered to our table and offered ice water (no checking if we want sparkling or still :)).  There's a deck you can walk out to to enjoy the lovely sunset.

We ordered 4 tapas and 2 mains with a drink each. My drink Santigo was refreshing - limey with a touch of chilli. C had a beer.

It put me in a good mood to enjoy the food. The tapas came - pa amb tomaquet (toast with olive oil and tomato - $10) - bread was crispy and light. The croquetas Jamon was really good (4 pieces for $15). We had the crispy paella ($16) which is paello cooked in saffron until crispy and eat with fish broth. The presentation was cool as the broth was poured from a pot. The last tapas was Chorizo Yestrellados ($18) which is very rich with egg, chorizo and potatoes. The first bite was great but subsequent bites were too rich for me. My favourite was the croquetas de jamon.

Our mains were baby lamb ribs ($55) and snapper ($45) with medley of vegetables with romesco sauce. The lamb was really good with the sauce. The snapper was not overcooked and goes nicely with the lemon puree and sauce.

We were given a treat of the light and laser show at 8 pm at the Marina Bay.

We were too stuffed to have desserts and I had a lovely anniversary dinner.
