Just Around the Corner

these 2 girls have gotta be the most adorable and most entertaining peeps who really crack me up! thought it'd be nice to have a girls' night out without the guys around so i suggested going to Robertson Quay since it looked like a really nice place but i havent eaten there before. the walk from clarke quay over was pretty dangerous cos i made the girls cross the road without realising that there was a barrier that prevented us from reaching the sidewalk. *oops* and knowing that Ren already has a phobia of crossing roads with me, this didn't help *double oops* pai seh!

there was quite a wide variety of choices but finally settled on this small Italian restaurant, Mondo Mio Singapore. was the right decision cos firstly, the food served was really good! tried a different pizza unlike any other which was shaped like a huge curry puff, the prawn spaghetti with a cream base had a tinge of white wine which made it fragrant and a grilled chicken nicely done. one of the staff, presumably Italian and a partner of the place, made our dinner more interesting by chatting with us and we exchanged some friendly banter. the other partner of the restaurant also provided eye candy for Ren though me and HM thought he really wasn't all that amazing.. but, his poise and confidence really exudes a certain charming aspect. (shall give u credit girl =p)
.
thinking that i had done my research, i wanted to bring the girls to Ricciotti, which i thought was at Robertson Walk but was in fact at the Riverwalk. luckily for us, Canele Patirsserie was located just around the corner and we headed over for tea and desserts! *slurps* our taitai - ASK - unclassified lifestyle as our colleague terms us. the cakes there look lovely and the choc lovers excl me happily chose their faves while i settled for sth non chocoloately which turned out to be some custard pie that didn't taste that fantastic but still tasted good. oh well, we didnt finish 'em up cos we were super fullll!

so the next activity was to digest our food. *burps* oops! nice area just to walk leisurely while we talk and take in the sights. is it only me or that i'm seeing many more bridges built to impress? perhaps it's cos i've never been to these places.. but now i have! yay! exploring new places =]


and cos it was a saturday, we wanted to chill out late so we searched for a bar which would suit our timings and finally just settled for Harry's. initially didnt feel like drinking since my stomach was already bloated but decided to share with HM a cocktail which she thought tasted like medicine so it was all for me while they drank beer. and u shd see Ren's face before and after she sipped the Heineken. super funny! haha.. but she continued drinking tho she didn't really like the bitter taste. mine was pretty sweet so i quite liked it till the alcohol effect took place a while later and as usual, i grew all red and felt a bit tipsy.. lucky for me and all of us, we were driven home safely =] (cute drawing by me! =p)

it was an eventful yet sinful day but i loved it nonetheless! another round coming up this weekend! *beams*
