Morton's

I dined at Morton's for Friday's night dinner. Location: Mandarin Oriental Hotel. It was superb! No wonder it is one of the best steakhouses in Singapore and sooo........ expensive.

Every portion is huge and you really need a super big appetite to finish your appetizer, main course, dessert and other sides. Otherwise, it's better to share with your friends, especially for the small eaters. The bread was huge... as big as a Christmas cake. It's very fragrant, but unfortunately you can't take too much of it, otherwise you will be stuffed by the time your main course comes.

The menu is only 1 page, but you can choose seafood, USA beef, Australian beef. What I had that night was a Ribeye USA steak. The beef is very thick and very juicy and soft considered that it was done medium well. That cost $89. You can actually order a steak and lobster tail combination for $169. And of course, you can order the entire lobster.... it's based on market price. But the lobster taste very very sweet! Their oysters are also big and juicy. For non beef eaters, you can try their chicken. But to forewarn, they give you 3 big pieces of chicken, which most probably you will be full by the time you finish the first or second piece. That's about $50.
You can also try the Morton's salad. It is pretty good with salad dressings and lots of bacon's bits. Dessert is warm chocolate cake, and it's really one of the best I have eaten. I also had the James Bond 007 wine that day. Not too sure what is the name of the wine, all I know is that it was featured on the latest James Bond movie.

There were people celebrating birthdays in the restaurant. As usual the staffs will come over to your table and wish you happy birthday. But interesting enough, their birthday song goes..."happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday from Morton's, happy birthday to you..." Well, guess they don't have to check your name before they sing the birthday song to you....
