happy birthday (sorry this is a bit late, being in china there was no lj!!! now for some reason there is…）
you are not stingy, western food IS incredibly expensive in shanghai/china. its because its so much harder to get and also cos they know that there are people that will pay that much. but splurging for a special occasion is nice！

Sounds like you had a FABULOUS dinner at Laris! I do enjoy the occasional fine dining, especially for special occasions 🙂
Yeah it’s nice to go fine dining.. I do like cheap hole-in-the-wall places too though, their food is often excellent!

hehe well it better have been the best risotto you’ve tasted!
oh my the scallops looks so good plump and firm.
oh! and glad you got back safely to syd!!
Yeah, it was one of the best foods ever and by far the best risotto. I reckon I could make it for a fraction of the price though 😉
note to self: do not browse Bev’s blog when hungry!

What an awesome birthday dinner!
In Edmonton, there’s $100 entree that has kobe beef, lobster and shallots, and I want to try it out just to say I had $100 entree.
Wowwww that would be awesome to try, you’re right!

Happy Birthday hon! That food looks amazinggg. Especially the truffles ;D
They were rich as anything, but so nice!
Happy birthday once again hun! Glad you had a lovely one!
B.T says Laris is known for their martinis too!!
Thanks hon! And yes, the martini was gooood. I like how it didn’t taste very potent 😉
Then I’m guessing you’ll love Morton’s martinis too 😛 Which reminds me, sigh, craving for the appletini and steak sandwiches..
Mmm dinner looked sublime! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Thank you hon!
Wow, happy belated birthday.
In a way, I’m like you. I can never justify paying A LOT for food. I think the difference between very expensive food and expensive food is very little, so much so that the price differences are not worth. But that’s me. Perhaps if I earn $10,000 a month, I wouldn’t say this.
Having said that, I think the food you all had looked awesome, and an occasional splurge is fine.
Very true! I often find LOADS of cheap joints that serve amazing food. i do like the occasional fine dining, but still feel all guilty afterwards for spending all that $$ 😛
Looks like a really lovely dinner! 🙂 I love your earrings – where did you get them from?
Oh they’re just random bow-shaped crystal earrings I saw when shopping in Chinatown here in Sydney!
happy birthday babe 🙂

Whoaaaaaaaa! That dinner DOES look awesome though! White choc and eggnog? Nom!
hehe Chris liked that one.. decadent!
wow to the $100 risotto! A friend of mine had a $60 burger in Tokyo, and I thought HE was crazy! 😀
I can see why it was $$ but still! Arghhhhh
