Today's after work activities started with tennis and ended with dinner at Ma Maison. I really suck at tennis, but so does my playing partner, so it's all good.... Ma Maison is this chic Japanese-Western restaurant tucked in a corner on the second floor of Bugis Junction. It wasn't the first restaurant we wanted to eat at but "The Olive Tree" was way out of our budget, and this place looked pretty interesting.
Ma Maison serve's Japanese-Western fusion cusine, though its not your typical "fusion" fare. I was expecting the standard duck pasta, curry chicken pasta and stuff, but their food was a little more unique. You'll have to try it to understand. The interior decor looks very western, without much hint of Japanese except for some Japanese flyers pasted on the wall. YW didn't think it looked authentic western though... The music was good 'ol jazz, very nice. We had escargos with garlic and butter, this weird "cheese balls" kinda dish, and seafood paella. The paella was basically Spanish style but with Japanese rice. That just made it seem like seafood fried rice with some shellfish on top haha!
We were gonna finish that last bottle of Sam Adams tonight but I had to go home and sleep early because tomorrow will be another long day at work. Guess that bottle will have to wait till a month later as YW will be going away....
