Anyways, Valentine's was created when the romans threw this guy name valentine into his cell and mistakenly gave him some paper and ink to write down some stuff. He wrote to his lover and ka-blam we had valentine's day. Now, if only we gave some pen and paper to some guy living in our kamunting prison (you know which one), we would have a different kind of holiday:)
Ok. Unto the main stuff. I was out (nearly) the whole day with me. Lunch was up first, and lo and behold, we went to Food Foundry. Hahahaha. I figured cause we didn't book anywhere for lunch, and foundry would be quite empty due to it's very secrective location (sec17, find yourself).
Neways, we had quite the difficulty to order lunch. Mie wanted spag, but no seafood, and no this one certain herb in it (forgot name, don't ask), and the staff's english was, about adequate. So after much bamboozling, got the order right. For me, i just had the cordon bleu chicken. Which is a fancy name for breaded fried chicken with ham inside and a lovely sauce. Lol.
And as communications breakdowns are concerned, the spag came back to the wrong specs. Hahaha. So me had the spag and Mie had the chicken, which she liked. Which is good. And being a man (it is written in some guidebook somewhere), i dutifully ate the spag. Hahahaha. Being hungry helped. At least we had a proper lunch:)
Then well, off to SOHO, in dunno somehere near mont kiara. To tell you the truth, for the life of me, i swear i have never been there. Mie says i have brought her to Mont kiara before. Oh well:) We were there for this offline shopblogger's thingie. And the variety of stuff sold, incomparable. And Mie got to buy this pair of cute shoes, which magically makes your feet tiny. Like how some men look fifty pounds less when they wear a nicely cut suit. Anyways, they suited her feet.
Met up with Jessie and Jin, newly found friends, at least for me - Mie has known Jessie for ages. So we went shop shop, and then i was dead tired. Me shoes didn't help much (did i mention those very pair of shoes got stolen?). So after a long bout with shopping, went to the nearby coffee beans and sat down with J&J for coffee. Jin said he was going to cook Jessie dinner, which btw, i assume was alright cause Jessie was still alive a week later:)
Then me went to Nihon Kai. Ah yes, the tiny little place with this lovely atmosphere. It's a Japanese Restaurant btw, with Nihon meaning Japan, and Kai meaning...chicken(in chinese) or release(in Japanese). Well, it's either you trust my lousy translation or you go make up some other meaning on your own. Anyways, we got this jap vip room, which had three tables, and seats 4 per table. This meant we'd be sharing that place with two other groups of people.
And oh.. we switched the table from the end of the room, to the other end, near the window (which caused some fiasco with the staff who were confused as to who ordered what). And oh yea...you want pictures is it? here's some, the rest on facebook. Don't be lazy k?
The fake jap tables. Lol. Note the space under the tables:)
Well, we ordered tempura ebi (yes, i know it's prawns), sukiyaki, and fried tofu, and the cucumber sushi thing (which is one of Mie's fav's). And what do you know? i thought it'd be towards the upwards of like RM100, but it didn't even touch sixty. It was good, and please, don't compare to shogun la, shangri la, or any other place k? Every place has it's niche.
And oh, Lit shiuan wanted to go to this place for his Valentine's dinner also, but couldn't get a reservation - what do you expect booking on the day of valentine's? And also, Sze Mun (i think her name is spelt this way) had to wait for 40mins though she had a reservation. Hahahaha. I booked the week before. Siao leh? hahahaha.
Anyways, that's it for the Valentine's post. How did yours go? leave a comment. Really.
Cheers!
