An Epicurean Adventure!
Dinner at Michelangelo's with Crystal and Brandon last night was just great - heard alot of things about it, but never actually been there. And wow. The pasta is just fantastic. Funny how I go to Holland Village so often, but haven't actually gone to any of the restaurants at Chip Bee Gardens.
Crystal had the Tagliatelle con Lobster ("Fresh local lobster tail tossed in clarified butter with leek and asparagus flamed in Cognac and served with tagliatelle pasta") which I was tempted to order as well but glad I didn't because I love, love, loved mine, haha. But hers was gooooood too. And Brandon had the famous Penne Vodka ("A medley of slivered sweet onion, light cream and a dash of tomato sauce sauteed in clarified butter and flamed with Russian vodka adorned with Parmesan cheese shavings") which was, as Gupson would say it, bee-aaauuu-tiii-fuul. Like seriously, haha. I don't even like vodka or plain-ish kind of pasta, but the sauce for this was damn yummy la. Mmm.
I had the Spaghetti Frutti de Mare ("An ensemble of local & imported seafood sauteed in garlic, extra virgin olive oil and fresh chili served on a bed of spaghetti pasta in a zesty tomato sauce"), which made me TREMENDOUSLY happy because it had a HUUUGGEE giant prawn in it, swoon, which was so gorgeous and firm and oh, so, delicious. The seafood was fresh and well cooked, and the sauce was just the right parts of tomato and zest. Oh, wow.
And since I forgot to take my camera out of the car, I just used someone's flickr pictures (linked below). Anyway; here it is -
Spaghetti Frutti de Mare.My prawns were bigger tho! Giaaaannt praaawwwn. :p We also shared the Calamari Fritti for appetizers, which was pretty good, and an Italian ice cream cake Casata thingie which was not too bad as well, but well, basically tasted like.... ice cream cake. Haha.
Yay. Absolute yumminess.
In the car, taking time to digest our food before driving off. Haha... my aiming is terrible.Teehee. And Sze gave me a cow! I don't know why, but it's cute, and I now have a cow hanging on my pencil case. Yaaaayyy thanks lubb chuuu =) Oh oh and Brandon bought us all a cupcake each! Cloud Nine for himself, Elvis for Sze, and a Chocolate Deluxe each for me and Crystal. :):):)
Hee :)And I've finally, finally, finally, got a new phone; the one which I've been coveting for months - the Motorola Razr V3i in Maroon! Yaaaaaaayyyy. No more not being able to charge my phone and living on perilously low battery most of the time, and stealing my sister's battery to feed my phone.
I am pleased. Haha I got out of bed for this; even though I was aching ALL over when I woke up, legs and arms aching from dancing and trying to dip Crystal, and butt hurt from the bruising it suffered from my very unglam fall in MPW class yesterday, where I tripped on a step in high-heel wedges and tumbled over a couple more and landed, hard, on the carpeted seminar room floor. Ouch. My strap broke too, so sad. I liked that pair of wedges :(
Well and went to Union too, after drilling to dance abit and then catch the last bus home, came home before 12! Not bad haha somemore it was quite happening too, being a public holiday with free entry and all. Yay. Not a bad idea to go on a Saturday actually, can go home early too. Ohwell, it's Sunday morning, having fallen asleep at my laptop again last night, and it's time to go to school again :x so... that's the end of my very long and swoony post =p
