Food and Movie review....Pt Trois

Come to think of it, it isnt even my burfday yet, but how many cakes have i eaten till now? the count is 4 (four celebration)...

Yesterday church members kinda threw me a bash at a coffee shop, candles were blown, cakes were eaten, and wishes was revealed...Thanks alot guys, really appreciate it...

After that, ive gone to 1-U trying to catch a couple of movies with R...the first movie was National Treasure...

Hmm, though someone might comment it is an Indiana-Jones-Lookalike, but i found it quite entertaining...from producer Jerry Bruckheimer (also producer of TAR and CSI:Miami), you can expect the entire show to be thrillingly interesting, the actions just come one after another...with cool ideas and lovable casts of Nicholas Cage and Diane Kruger, i would say it is a must-watch movie, if u r the kind who r into adventures and stuff...The truth is, the plot resembles the storyline of 'Da Vinci Code' by Dan Brown, from the code deciphering process to the church's secret chamber to the villain pursuit, everything matches uncannily...

Another movie was a chick flick, the fact that i adore Renee Zellweger has made me to choose it over Elektra (starring Jennifer Garner) and Vanity Fair(starring Reese Witherspoon)...It wasnt such a bad film either, this sequel to Bridget Jones' Diary 1 as written by helen fielding sees more of BJ getting all screwed up in her romance life...Alongside her love interest, Colin Firth and Hugh Grant, they managed to create a sitback kinda comedy...I love this film particularly is becoz i feel that BJ can really relate to me...her obsession and desperation of romance, her not-getting-someone-she-likes, and her way of writing it all down in her diary, jz like what im doing now...haha...except i mention less of my romance life here...maybe i shd write more of it in the future...:)

Upon watching the 1st movie, we have gone to this cafe name Basque Lane...it features mediterranean food and located near Dome...Alrite, this is worthy of mention becoz the location is really secluded, you will nv come across it unless you venture out to the rain forest section, jz like we did...There werent any other patrons when we went in, and after we've finished our food and left...The place is really inconspicuous!

About the food, yeah, they were great! Strongly recommended to anyone who adores pasta and bruschetta and deserts...We had Escargot for appetizer, it was scrumptious, though i wouldnt say it is as nice as the one @ The Ship, but really, different taste altogether...the muchroom bruschetta was fine too...For mains, i had Alfredo Seafood, Luv it, despite the serving came deprived of more sauce, im still luving it...memorable taste, i would say...the carbonara, on the other hand, creamy enough for my liking, strongly advised on taking that as well...

For deserts, i had Tiramisu again, and R took Crepe Suzzette...my cake tasted heavenly, but the crepe didnt appeal to me, too orangey...For drinks, i had Spanish Sangria, a concoction of Red Wine, Lemonade and fruit...Yummy...:)

I would definitely go there again, and will recommend it to everyone, coz they really need more customers to survive, more promotions maybe...yeah, their food aint too pricey, definitely MUST TRY!!
