a 'sweet little one' afternoonMietta's @ Arab Street
it was my free day and i spent the very lovely afternoon with my friend, sharon. she never fail to impress me with her ability to seek out a quaint, artful place for our gatherings. and as usual, i enjoyed her choice for today - Mietta's @ Arab Street.
there is this 1-for-1 promotion going on for CitiBank card holders until next year which is seriously, splendidly worth the money if you like an italian-french afternoon. we completely indulged ourselves with lobster bisque for starters, penne vodka with prawns/ lobster with lemony cream sauce for the mains and of course, the wondrous tiramisu and vanilla panna cotta for desserts.
it was
so good.
no kidding, but the unlikely generous (for an italian restaurant, really) portions made me so full i thought i was limping when i walked to bugis mrt. and when sharon started sharing her list of people she would love to bed, i think i swallowed a gulp of lobster that regurgitated up.
what really made the afternoon awesome was realizing how our friendship has surpassed time and proximity that we can still talk and laugh like old times. it was enjoyable reminiscing about the recent past and whatever memories that managed to surface from our subconscious. and of course, the
lobster overload perfected it.
and oh, there was the book of HAPPINESS where we believe that we are the chocolate buttons on top of the GREAT CARAMEL PUDDING of Life.
we repeated that 10 times we were both dizzy with happiness,
and perhaps, overdosed with our
quirky friendship.
