Food Lover
I was reading the chinese papers and chanced upon this article. Sad. One Panda down due to the earthquake. Everyone has been asking if I have watched Kungfu panda. As I said, that Panda is damn ugly. Haha. But I did hear many positive reviews on the movie!
Anyway I enjoyed my weekend very much! Will blog about it slowly. On Friday, I managed to meet up with Adrian & Nuan to celebrate Nuan's upcoming B'day. Yup she is the oldest among us haha, by right it shd be Jay but since he isn't around so it's her. I suggested the dining placeS that day and we went to Haji Lane for our Mediterrinean Dinner. The Egyptician place we went~
The decor emits a certain mystery feel~
I managed to reserved the 2nd level seats. The whole setting is that of a shophouse. Okay we had no chairs to sit. Just sat down(or knelt) on the mats to eat. At first, I thought that the patrons seemed kind of weird, and they were foreign I guess.
The menu, rather reasonable prices~
We all ordered Kebabs since its their speciality, lamb, beef and chicken. If u look closely in the menu they have 'Egyptician Healthy Drinks' and being adventurous enough, I was convinced to order that by them. I had this drink called 'Halba Hasa'. Whatever it is. Anyway it was a decision which I subsequently regretted. As Nuan aptly described it, the taste is that of ginseng in milk powder. Healthy as it sounds but definitely not to our liking =(The 'healthy' drink~
Our main courses~
Overall, it is an unique experience at this place. Saw many people smoking the Pipes also, along the street and in the restaurant. It is really rare that we still have such a street, as I thought that it only belonged to the days in the 80's. I felt as though I walked into another realm, then out into the busy city area again. Oh thanks to the Bday gal again for the treat, which she insisted as she got her 1st pay =)Yup there's always space for desserts! What more after a not-very-filling meal. I suggested Ice cube or Dempsey, and we settled for the latter eventually. Went to La Fondue for the well-deserved desserts! This time it's Adrian and my turn to treat!
Brownie with many fruits & Oreo~
As the place suggests, it's famous for fondues so we can't miss it as well. I must say I was rather impressed by the assortment.
Brownie, orange, strawberry, kiwi, vanilla ice-creams, marshmellow, dognuts, pineapple to go with the choc~
The milk choco was satisfying~
Pose for the cam~
After the hearty dessert~
Satisfied~
Overall, it wasnt that crowded, maybe cos we entered at 930pm. And it's comfortable to sit and relax and take ya time to enjoy =)
No doubt it's damn sinful =(
Gimme more~
