great dinner with great companion

Am extremely busy for the past 2 weeks, a business trip to Penang, conference and showcase at MIMOS, rushing for project phase end review and internal audits, attended funerals during the weekend.

... but I'm getting my routine back slowly * phew *

i had at least 3 pending posts waiting for some final touch up before upload. So as usual, here come the fillers to fill in the void during my absence. Anyway, I will let the pictures to do the talking.

1. Pre birthday celebration for Wei Ning at Porto Romano, Amp Walk.


If you are an Italian food lover and you have never visited Porto Romano before, please do go ahead and try it out, its highly recommended. I must give credit to the interior design and the ambiance of the restaurant, it was warm, with nice candle light and old books stack up at the side of shelf. There are many old movie posters and advertisement hanging on the wall, like "Gone with the wind", "Godfather", "breakfast at Tiffany" etc. It was a sheer pleasure to just standing there admiring those nostalgic posters.


The girls with the movie posters behind


Squid salad and seafood pasta


Cabonara and cakes


thin Crust pizza


Tiramisu in the cup and mud chocolate (from secret recipe)

The food was very good as well, we've ordered a squid salad, Porto Romano special seafood pasta, Cabonara, two pizzas (Hawaiian) and Tiramisu. The pasta were so flavourful and cooked to perfection. Unlike Pizza hut or Domino's pizza, the pizza are made of the non bready crust, which was thin and very crunchy. a true representation of what italian exquisite pizza should be.

Overall, it was very pleasant, we enjoyed the candid camera session and great companionship with each other.

2. Couple gathering (except kim of course) at Kim's new place



Kim is one of the most fussy person that I've ever met when it comes to aesthetic value of the food and table decoration. Thanks to the red table clothes and nice cutlery set, It almost felt a Christmas dinner in UK.


We were served with salmon, beef, lamb, mushroom cream pasta, garlic bread, pumkin soup and colorful salad. (By the way, the salad spork is just nice to see, but not practical at all)



We had great time together chatting and playing with his ogawa massaging chair

3. Revisiting Delicious and cone pizza

Peter and I re visited Delicious and Cone Pizza, i think we will never get bored of dine in there.


Mud chocolate cake and the delicious signature burger


Peter's eggplant pasta and the happy man himself


Aglio E Olio and Arrabiata from Cone Pizza, yummmmmmy.....

Anyway, thats all for now.
