Prince's 4th birthday was intimately celebrated at home and the kid is the happiest person on earth especially after receiving his preferred gifts. Ferald and I on the other hand wanted to do something more for him on his birthday.
I still have the vouchers from the Novotel Al Barsha's Grand Opening so I booked a table for the family to dinner at the hotel's all-day dining restaurant called 365
It was a quiet dinner service, it was just after the weekend so there was no rush. I was told that they are busier at lunchtime during the weekdays.
As usual, I snap before I dine and while doing so, I met chef Marc who is behind all the tempting creations on the spread. I favor the starters over the mains most of the time in a buffet (weird? not) and there was a wide selection of starters from salads to cold mezze, I couldn't be any happier.
While I was indulging on my plate of starters, hubby and my sister-in-law had their pasta cooked in the live cooking station while the kids go directly for the mains, my daughter whose on potatoes was more than satisfied with the potato au gratin.
Everything on this plate complimented each other and I am sold, as long as there is smoked salmon, I am a happy kid, the ripe papaya salad balanced everything.
I finished my plate of mains that includes white fish in cream sauce, roasted beef, potato au gratin, and lamb stew but I keep on coming back for these two especially the curried crabs
Before we finished our dinner, Prince had a surprise, Chef Marc presented him with this cake and we are truly grateful for their hospitality, a group of Filipino staff even sing him a happy birthday song and I am sure that by the looks on his face, he wouldn't have it any other way to celebrate his 4th birthday.
