David celebrated his birthday this year with a lot of cake! The weekend before his actual birthday we were invited out for dinner by some of our friends to celebrate David's birthday. We had a nice dinner, followed by a delicious home-made vanilla and chocolate cake that was baked by one of our friends (such a lovely gesture!). It was an enjoyable evening spent with friends.
Due to work commitments, we could not go out on David's actual birthday, so we celebrated the night before by going out for a lovely dinner at Il Lido Restaurant at the Sentosa Golf Club. Il Lido is a lovely Italian restaurant with gorgeous views of the ocean. The staff knew we were there for David's birthday (they asked if we were celebrating anything special when we made the reservation), but we had no idea they would do something special. That said, after our dinner, they brought out a dark chocolate mousse cake for David's birthday (had we known we would not have ordered dessert!). Needless to say, the birthday cake was a nice touch and we enjoyed not only our entire meal, but also the ambiance and lovely setting of the restaurant.
On David's actual birthday, a co-worker took him out for lunch at Wooloomooloo Restaurant (where we went for our anniversary dinner) and after lunch the restaurant staff brought out a small chocolate lava cake for David's birthday. Another nice gesture, but little did David know, there was more to come.........
A few hours later, David was surprised at this desk when a group of his former staff members surprised him with a cake. Another kind gesture and one that David also appreciated. Needless to say, David had another wonderful birthday.
