Menotti

23 June. Gals nite out. Meant to celebrate Joc's birthday. Din expect her to get bronchitis. Sounds serious hor. We were so scared it's infectious. Even suggested wearing N95 masks to protect ourselves. Since the doctor gave her three-days MC and she was meeting us on the third day, she should be fine.
Initially, we planned to go to Menotti (Italian restaurant) for dinner. Jam had even reserved seats there. Before the birthday gal arrived, we ventured to check the restaurant out first. It seemed that the main courses were not fantastic. The desserts, however, looked pretty decent. We were quite reluctant to patronise the restaurant. Therefore, we decided to check more places out.
We went over to Odeon Towers to take a look at Hanabi. Hanabi received rave reviews in the straits times. It is a Japanese restaurant, offering ala carte buffet. The place was nicely decorated. I will definitely go there once i manage to jio pple. :) I love Jap food.
Next, we proceeded to CHJIMES. There are many food outlets to choose from. Haha, without fail, each time we meet, we will end up wandering around and deciding what to eat. Waste plenty of time with our stomachs growling away. In the end, we still decided to give Menotti a try.
The place was super noisy. We could not even hear ourselves. We had to shout. Not a good place to hang out with friends and chat. Eventually, our food was served. Most of us ordered spaghetti. Only Jam, Dawang and I ordered something different. Jam and I ordered panini (toasted sandwich) stuffed with chicken and mushroom spinach respectively. We din know that both of us had actually ordered mango smoothie. You cant possibly go wrong with mango. Dawang ordered mutton. The panini is pretty good. But the serving is not large. Saved some space for desserts later.
After dinner, we moved over to gelare to chat and have ice-cream. I actually ordered cappuccino favour. So gutsy since i had been suffering from palpitations the entire day (I had teh terik in the afternoon). Too sensitive to caffeine liao.
