Palate Palette Restaurant & Bar @ Jalan Mesui

He once asked me, “What does your dream house look like?”
I told him…

P1250031

 

My dream house has a secret garden like how Frances Hodgson Burnett put it, minus the air of intrigue and gloominess and lit up by myriads of colors. On a lazy Sunday evening, surrounded by blooming scent-ational flowers, I’ll sit with a glass of wine, do some readings on the same wooden bench where that hairy chest guy brushed his leg against the married woman under the last time they were here. (Any similarity to any real person is merely coincidental)

When slopping down keg beer out of plastic cups is not my kind of thing anymore, I need a home bar stocked with “sophisticated booze” 24/7. What’s better than the best timing to sweet talk the husband into buying me that Gucci bag that I’ve been eyeing when he’s sipping on his glass of tequila sunrise?

I love all things random in a home that is uniquely mine. I’ll put behind my head of matching sofas, matching carpet, matching wall colors, matching furniture and matching home décor pieces. There are no clear décor rules & policies to raid my home. I’ll have walls after walls of random graphics, paired with mismatched accessories that I managed to dig through from the Sunday lapsap (junkyard) sales and pieces that bring good memories.

I woke up to some faint voices in the background, a small group of tai tais are talking about petrol price hikes and inflations over their cuppa. I’ll just stick to my old house where everything is in place and is small enough to fit in a trash can. How convenient!

This would be my last eating out of the month (after the second last, the third last, the fourth last just few days ago), I remind myself on my resolution to tighten my belt and work harder.

    I’ve always loved vibrant colours, which is why I like visiting this restaurant. Food’s okay, but ambience is amazing.
