graze at rochester park is a place that has received several high praises from me. its head chef, matthew lawdorn, whom i have corresponded with a few times has invited me to their first anniversary celebrations. matthew would be introducing new menu items so this would be an excellent opportunity for guests to taste them before anyone else!
you have read my rave review, now here’s the chance to actually sample matthew’s cooking! the party is this coming tuesday (may 8) from 7:30pm onwards. i would be bringing one of my blog readers as a guest!

if you would like to be my date for an evening of great food (and hopefully great company), do drop me an email with your name and contact number. all guys and gals are welcome, but existing long time blog readers of mine would definitely stand a better chance!
i came to know of graze only in december last year. that’s where i had my christmas dinner. the excellent food, service and overall ambience made it a particularly memorable evening which i can still vividly remember.
in fact, i was so charmed that in my list of best (& worst) restaurants in singapore for 2006, graze snagged both the “best restaurant of the year” and “best service” awards!
don’t forget to check out my review of graze for more details and pictures! i would select the lucky blog reader tomorrow!

goes by the name veron. a definitive leo born august 1, 1984. a solo traveler. loves cats, coffee, sensual music, yummy food and technology. when she's not at her job as an IS developer for the government, she's likely to be out dining, or visiting an interesting art gallery or event.







Wow, Veron, you sure are really popular. There’s advertisers beating the doors down to get you to try their stuff, and now restaurants!
Yummy food!
I’m still thinking whether to try my luck for your contest, but my tummy is bulging, and my IPPT test is coming!!! View all comments by pkchukiss
Hey if you do join the “contest”, the other people would be fighting against stiff competition! I am aware that you are among the most frequent visitors that actually leave comments here. View all comments by Veron
So how many people are in queue for a date with you already? ;) View all comments by Tony
Quite a number of them! I am very excited! View all comments by Veron
aiya, wasted…i’m away in KL for training. If not, I’ll write in and try my luck. First to see you in person, and next to try the wonderful food and service you have been talking about at Graze! It will be a nice experience, good company and good food…have fun anyway and do tell about it thereafter! View all comments by Joyz
Awww… you are very, very sweet! There might be more opportunities like this in future. I sure hope you would be in Singapore then! View all comments by Veron
Wow…. Win a date with veron? Cool!
Do I see the queue going from Tuas to Changi village? View all comments by DK
Not that many! Hope to get more email coming in. The more choices I have, the better! View all comments by Veron
Hey veron.. is Graze expensive? ok. stupid question. i shd phrase it as: “how expensive is dining at Graze?” or “how big a hole is it going to burn in my pocket?” hehe.
Thinking of going there for my bf’s birthday dinner. thanks! :P View all comments by Daphne
I think you should budget about $120 per person! That should be sufficient for some light starters, a main course and a dessert. View all comments by Veron
only 1 spot only ah? haha… View all comments by keropokman

Hi Veron, I went to read DK’s post on his email to you.
I wonder if I had attempted to post you my lovely blue colour skies profile photo, and and let youknow that 8 May 2007 happens to be my birthday..and that I can share with you photos from my Little India, and Kampong Glam visits,. would you have chosen me instead?
Anyway, I am glad that you have found a great company in dk too. See ya around. Have missed you for the National Stadium visit and the last Yesterday.sg’s meeting. View all comments by py
I would DEFINITELY have picked you had I known that it was your birthday! That would have been really fitting, and no one else would have complained about my choice haha
Can’t believe I missed the stadium tour with you folks even though I was the one that suggested it! This blog has kept me so busy lately, I haven’t had time to do much else. View all comments by Veron
No worries Veron. If you do realise, I am quite shy with new friends. *Winks*, so did not feel at ease then to initiate being your guest. Furthermore, I won’t be able to pick you up like dk did, since I don’t drive.
The National Stadium tour is still available till June. It is a fairly simple 2-hours tour. The most important reason why I like it was that it triggered the good memories that I have of the National Stadium, and the nearby Kallang Theatre. View all comments by py
