Today is Li Xiang 25th birthday! This year is a little bit more relax for us as we manage to have the whole day to ourselves.

We had dinner at [TWG Tea](http://www.twgtea.com/) at [Ion Orchard](http://www.ionorchard.com/) as Li Xiang always wanted to try the dessert and tea there.

The main courses there are a little on the pricey side. It ranges from S$27 to S$32 and there are like like 5 choices of main course available. Not forgetting the portion is kinda little. I would not recommend having any full meal there.

On the other hand, the tea and dessert there are pretty good. There are like hundreds of tea selection available which I really do not know how to start choosing. The price starts at S$10 per pot, a pot is enough for 2 persons. We ordered the Happy Birthday tea which fits today’s occasion. The Happy Birthday tea is a little fruity!

There are some cakes available but we did not order them. Instead we ordered a Carrousel which is basically a very large Macarons filled with Strawberries and their homemade cream. We also did ordered two ala carte Macarons at S$2 each. The Macarons at TWG is nice, it is not too sweet.

Total bill amounted to S$93.55 after 7% GST and 10% service charge!

We donated S$10 to the [We Are One](http://www.weareone.sg/) charity project at Ion and we are entitled to placed 5 LEGO bricks!

Did not watch any movie today because Li Xiang will be having her end-semester FYP presentation tomorrow. Instead we will be watching 2012 this Saturday at midnight at GV Max!
