opening speech...

mood: layzee
listening to: things will go my way - the calling

so...i was thinking an entry is due to commemorate the start of 2007.

hrrm.

was at ean's place last night for his annual new year's eve bash. the theme? karaoke slash g.r.o. night (!) okay... to be fair, the vote was unanimous when a whole bunch of us inadvertently ended up at vintry about two weeks ago. so what do you get with a theme like that?...*drum roll please*... alright...all you closet ah beng's and la la mui's out there... i give you, karaoke/gro 2006!

gaya no? ang moh ah beng...check out the bling!!RM5 - Sungei Wang..believe it! the ah beng must have - don't leave home without it!
see... it's a must have! ah siang..which one u wan?? yeah...it's a tough business... ;)

lesson learnt? the pinky finger nail... don't leave home without it. =)

anyway, the eve of the eve, we ended up having a mini bar/restaurant crawl. original plan was to be at no black tie for a stint of 10 acts where serina's sister, melina, of tempered mental, would be playing. we showed up a tad bit late only to find that the man at the counter had given our table away!

noteworthy: he told the first few of us who arrived, that our reservation was full already. upon which we clarified with melina that no one she knew was there. only upon subsequent enquiry did he reveal that he had given our table away. and he didn't even try calling us first! tut*tut*

so then we walked over to ciccio, and had ourselves a couple of drinks...some calamari fritti...and to welcome serina to kuala lumpur! didn't take many photos, so i'm not posting up any here. but keep an eye out on joa's cos i think she might be posting some...

anyway, the real highlight of the night was actually relish. we strolled down from ciccio and found ourselves in a predominantly white themed interior, with whitewashed walls, really big and comfy cushioons, chilled out lighting and erm...overhanging paintings of androgenous looking bodies (?). but who cares about the paintings when this place dishes out some of the most juicy burgers in town! see see see....!

voila! the oh-so-juicy-siew-mai-looking cheese burger...*drool* the aussie burger - zee said it was a bit dry though... oh so pretty apple pie...
the REAL DEAL! the lounge upstairs..no food allowed the bar downstairs - my photography skills suck..i know =P pretty pretty lights...

overall, i'd pick relish anytime over chilli's... the prices are comparable but i'd say relish is definitely better value for money... the burgers (choice of 6oz or 10oz) were huge... and the sides that come with it are almost equal in portion. and check out the size of the applie pie! it was a bit too spiced for my taste but yummy none the less... and it comes with cranberry relish too =)

so yeah. i think i've surpassed the limit for an opening post... haha...! so me stop here.
