Had an early Christmas gift exchange cum dinner with Jane, Germaine and Rena yesterday and little Gabriel tagged along. I wanted to bring the munchkin but she woke up late from her nap.
Surprisingly everyone was on time, I was the latest. We met at Al Dente Trattoria Pronto at Great World City, and when I got to the table, all 3 of them were dressed in black...so sombre! Ordered a couple of appetizers, namely calamari and bruschetta and shared 4 mains - a mushroom pasta, carbonara, Hawaiian pizza and lasagna.
The food was decent but not fantastic, though the pizza and lasagna were better than I expected. At 40% off ala carte prices - Ladies' Night on Thursdays - we can't really complain as it was pretty good value. The final bill was less than $90 inclusive of drinks and taxes. (BTW, thanks again for dinner Jane!)

You know, ever since our SHATEC days we've been talking about going on a trip together and I think next year is THE year. I could do with an all-girl shopping and feasting holiday and I really hope it materializes. Possibilities are Ho Chi Minh (again!), Bangkok and Hong Kong/Macau. I don't mind considering Shanghai, Taipei, Jakarta, Bali, Kuala Lumpur or even Penang...anywhere will do! I just want to fly and eat plane food!
Ladies, I know you're reading, so let's work towards 5D/4N or 4D/3N over the long weekends in August or September ok?
