Of the ordinary...

Yesterday i hooked up with R for dinner, we went to our, or rather, MY regular diner at Centre Point to savour my kinda food...Well, she has refused to suggest any eateries, so it was up to me to decide...and i was Hungry, so it didnt take long to think of a place which offers NICE FOOD....

Pizza Uno can be found in four distinct locations in Klang Valley...Apart from the one at Centre Point, they have franchise at Ampang Point, USJ and Times Square...i still prefer the food here in CP as the chef is an authentic Italian...The only problem is, it is ALWAYS packed...

For Antipasto (Italian equivalent of entree), we ordered this Spinachi al Forno...It was a RICH dish topped with cheese and baked on top of chewy spinach...In fact, the Richness of the food served here is one of the reasons i have come back here regularly for that dairy crave...

For Soup, we have this favourite of Wild Mushroom soup, another richy soup, thick enough for my liking...then i have myself this Garlic Prawn Fettucine, a garlicky sauce based, blend with ALOT of extra virgin Olive Oil, and six (or seven) succulent Large prawns...I like the sauce especially, after all the White sauce ive been indulging in, this is a change...and have i told you i fancy Garlic?

For reasons i dunno why, R has gotten herself this Oven Baked Chicken (fancy coming to an Italian Restaurant for Chicken..)...It came with HALF a chicken, and u guessed it alrite, i had to eat Half of her Half-a-Chicken...along with all the potatoes around it...too fattening apparently...(gals...).

I didnt like the Chicken, it was kinda bland, not as tasty as the Wood-Fire chicken dat KR has to offer...We moved on to Tiramisu next, though she wanted Bread-n-Butter Pudding as well, she had to drop it when i assured her there aint any room left in my guts...

Tira-Mi-Su, Pick-Me-Up, literally, has been my Favourite cake FOREVER...Mom introduced it to me when i was a lil' kid and i found a liking to it immediately...She has attempted to bake it once but dismissed it ever since, there was too much work involved...the baking, the chilling...It is actually cheese cake, Mascarpone Cheese to be exact, topped with coffee powder, and served in a cup...

Among the ones i like best are: Italian Tomato, Dome, Starz, Lemon Garden, Melting Pot, Dave's, Piccolo Mondo...


All in all, i was in a state of contentment after such hearty meal..we had a stroll around CP and then headed back...Upon watching Alias, i retired to bed, along with all that Cheese and Milk and Meat...Gosh, i really should start working out soon, i dun anticipate a potato figure, not Now, not During Mid-age, and certainly not After Mid-age, for that matter...
