okie this is like an update of my birthday weekend and celebration with wongwong! (:
2 weeks ago:
on friday night, we had dinner @ jerry's @ jalan kayu as a a sorta farewell dinner for baby's bro. the food wasn't as good as expected but the deep-fried mushrooms were v yummy! we brought the camera wanting to take pix of the food but hoho when the food arrived all's forgotten!
On sat afternoon, we set off for the highlight of the weekend, our italian buffet @ RISTORANTE BOLOGNA!
yay and soon we reached! hungry hungry all the way! it's an ala carte buffet for the antipasti and the desserts with one main course! i would say it's a fine dining experience because it's really about the quality of the food, the assigned waiter to our table only brings small portion of food each time, we need to wait quite a while for these small portions of food and the taste of these food are pretty acquired. AND I WAS SO HUNGRY!
but! it's such a beautiful saturday afternoon (: only us in the restaurant and all's nice. i told wongwong, he can bluff me and say he booked the entire restaurant cos i wld have believed him whahaha.
the bread rolls: ciabatta & multi-grain-nut bread (and that lil dish of green thing's pine nuts with garlic oil and herbs: i like it! goes well w the bread i kept eating the bread hahaha.)
While we're eating our bread, our appetizers are being prepared and it took quite some time to prepare . and the first set of 3:
parma ham, white beans tossed with prawns in olive oil, another ham.
the white beans taste quite ok act while the hams were pretty different in texture from the ham we normally eat! not really stuff we like till we wanna repeat orders! and then, the 2nd set of 3s:
hoho this set of 3's yummier than the first and we repeated the calamari and the smoked tuna! n eee i dun like the corn cake! thot it'll be sweet like bengawan solo's corn-kueh but it's savoury and i dun really like the taste :| and wongwong doesn't too but he just thinks we shld appreciate food of other cultures! anyways aft eating somemore antipasti, it's time for pasta! and we waited...
and hooray! here comes our main course!
mine first:
baby wanted their famous squid ink pasta at first but the kitchen does not have enough of it so he ordered the dinner special, a ravioli with cheese filling! my pasta came first and it was a pretty big portion! den came baby's pasta and i started laughing cos baby v poor thing!
only have 5 of the ravioli and i knew my appetite-big-as-black hole baby wont be filled! so does he.. so poor thing!

anyways i cldn't finish my pasta cos i wanted to have some room for dessert! so yay wongwong helped me finish it (: and he's happy to do so, right baby?
and after resting enough we started on our desserts which are so divine!!! super good spread of desserts and almost every item is rich and nice! the cakes are all moist and rich and the haagan-daz ice cream sent me to the moons!
(i like moist tiramisu i realized while baby likes the dryer classic version in the cake form below!)
and a few good rounds of ice-cream whacking, we're ready to go home with our very full tummies!!! wat a meal :D thank you darling, u are the best!!!
