Deborah Lippmann Candy Shop Swatch

I was so torn on this one, but after asking around, looks like it's a keeper :)

2011 Anniversary

It's my 5th anniversary with the BF last week, but since my family was here, we postponed the celebration to this weekend. BF gave me my anniversary gift a month early before my family came and roses couple of days ago. I must say this is the best anniversary I've ever had!

BF made a reservation at La Folie in SF. I don't know why for the past 3 years, we always end up in a French restaurant for our anniversary. This one is our favorite one compared to the other French restaurants we went to! We both took the 4 course dinner and everything was perfect! The taste is good and the presentation is beautiful.

Amuse Bouche: Hamachi with aioli sauce and potato chip

Amuse Bouche: Corn soup with half-cooked egg

My 1st course: Sautéed Burgundy Snails, in Pernod Lemon Butter, Parsley, Bone Marrow Gratin

BF's first course: “Tasting of Passot Roe”, Sea of Cortez Diver Scallop Ceviche, Hiramasa Yellowtail Sashimi, and Kusshi Oyster

My 2nd course: Lobster and Mushroom Risotto, with Leeks and Lobster Broth

BF's 2nd course: Pan Seared Daurade , on Provençale Vegetables, Lobster Stuffed Squash Blossoms, Sea Urchin Broth

My 3rd course: Rôti of Quail and Squab, stuffed with Mushrooms, Wrapped in Crispy Potato Strings, Truffled Jus

BF's 3rd course: Roasted Emigh Farms Lamb Rack, with Butter Beans and Chorizo, Taggiasca Olive Lamb Jus

Palate cleanser: Strawberry soup with pistachio sprinkles

My 4th course: Organic Strawberries and Valrhona Chocolate Bread Pudding, Basil-Olive Oil Ice Cream, Champagne Sabayon

BF's 4th course: Warm Edam Cheese Soufflé, with Fromage Blanc Sorbet, Crispy Bacon, White Sesame Tuile

Complimentary Petit Four

This restaurant does not disappoint! We already planned to come back some time later. I couldn't say which one is my favorite as everything taste really good! If you're in SF, definitely try La Folie! Highly recommended.

Anyway, are you ready for my gift reveal? I've been using it since BF gave it to me, but I just haven't posted it here. Here you go..

Shoes Haul

I've been going all around US for vacation for the last one month and I came back with so many packages at home plus the ones I bought from my trip! I've been bitten by the shoes bug recently, so let's start the shoes reveal first!
