Muse@National Museum

Finally, something New York-ish near school! Bars in museums is just something I absolutely lurve...and now, I don't have to go all the way to ACM at Empress Place anymore just to get the whole bar-n-museum thingy!

I met up with Amy who had since graduated and is now working (interesting fact: she went to WU one term before me and we were in the same project group a year ago and had such great time working and gossiping together!). Anyway, I decided that we should check out the new it bar du jour (well, at least that's what the magazine called it) call Muse at the National Museum located just next to our campus. The bar itself was pretty small, but there's a nice alfresco area, and since it rained just before we got there, the temperature was cooling and made the alfresco area more lovely. House and lounge music made this place a nice chill out bar and it's been time since I had been a place like this - nice. The drinks were disappointing though and at 12-16 bucks (roughly 6-8 Euros) for one, it is not exactly as affordable as the other newly opened bar, Ice Cold Beer, on campus. But then again, Ice Cold Beer is nowhere as classy as Muse.

I had a Muse Martina and a Muse Mule and Kenneth had this other drink. The martini was good, and tasted slightly like green curry, u get the idea...and the long drinks that kenneth and I had tastes of, well, cough syrup. The finger food I ordered (Mini Beef Burger) was superb though...haha...

Oh! I guess the bar's really the 'in' thing now cos we saw like 6 Porsches parked one to another at the entrance...now that's something cool...

Gosh, its beeen so long since i can relax like this and luckily me hell week is over! Done with all my presentations and at least i can relax this weekend before another week or mad rush to prep for exam and the final comms project submission...Darn...
