There's nothing I love more than spending quality time with my girlfriends. From sharing hilariously cringe-worthy experiences to discussing about heartbreak / loss, my friends have seen (and heard) it all. I gathered the Aussie girls (Yan and Eve) for lunch in Singapore, and invited my friend Yao to join us.
We met for lunch at North Border Bar & Grill, a picturesque, al fresco restaurant that's surrounded by the lush foliage of Rochester Park.

North Border offers a reasonably-priced two, three or four-course set lunch meal. However, do note that they have an awful policy of not allowing people to share these dishes. We visited in a group of four and wanted to order two
three-course set lunches to share (to sample more dishes within one visit), but that was not allowed. Worse still, waiters watched like a hawk for any violations, which made us feel restrained throughout the meal.

The food was passable, nothing majorly spectacular or worth writing home about. The redeeming quality of this restaurant lies in its ambience - a beautiful and cosy space that's perfect for intimate gatherings.
I love hanging out at Rochester Park, because it allows you to escape from the manic crowds of places like Orchard Road; but having said that, I doubt I'll return to North Border. There are plenty of better establishments in the vicinity!
