The 4th of July weekend turned out pretty awesome. We did a bunch of miscellaneous shopping during the day including some electronics/food/upholstery and met up with one of PP's friends for dinner at this wonderful place called Straits. It served a family style Singaporean food but what made the restaurant stand out was the awesome decorations and style in the settings.
We ordered 5 dishes in total and it was more than enough food to go around. We started out with some sliced spring rolls for an appetizer. I had some beef with fried taro strips, PP ordered the coconut fried rice with shrimp, and PP's friend had some traditional chicken Pad-Thai. The presentation of the food was exquisite while the taste was fantastic. Even though we didn't have room, we still ordered dessert which came in the form of these dipped cheesecake bites. (Oreo, Dark Chocolate, and Peanut Butter)
After dinner, we were walking to the car when I noticed lots of people sitting on the sidewalk in lawn chairs. We found out that in 15 minutes there was going to be a fireworks display so we just decided to stay. The display was pretty awesome as the fireworks exploded really close to the audience and it lasted a good 20 minutes while the 1812 Overture blared in the background.
