I Had 5 Different Spaghetti Meals For Lunch!

~ Posted on Thursday, August 4, 2011 at 8:46 AM ~

Hubby suggested this place for lunch and I thought, "Oh heck, for RM14.90 (that's about USD5) to eat all I can, why not?!" so we head over to the "Secret of Louisiana" restaurant (after I called up to book a table) and try out the spaghetti meals!

Fact #1: I only had 2.5 plates out of 5 plates that we ordered and tasted a few bites of the other 2.5 plates...

Fact #2: It was for a "Eat All You Can Spaghetti" sets! So what else, eat all I can right?!! (Free refills for soup, vege salads and coffee/tea)

Fact #3: They got my name wrong! (I called in half an hour earlier to reserve a table and I guessed maybe the name 'Jenny' is not so common compared to ermmm.. 'Jane'?)

Below are the pictures taken of the spaghettis meals we ordered...

My first plate: Mexican Aglio Olive

Hubby's first plate: Carbonara Chicken

My 2nd plate: Creamy Pesto White Fish

Hubby's 2nd plate: Chicken Smoked Sausage

The last plate we shared: Chicken with Olive

Desserts: We had this yummy choc mint ice cream!

It was a nice lunch we had and honestly speaking, I enjoyed all the spaghettis served.  It was also the first time I ate olives! (shocking huh!) The portion was just nice, the service was good, the ambience was good and I love the deco in the restaurant too. We did had a bit of a difficulties at the beginning when we tried to look for the restaurant, but it was due to the place location and building setup actually.

Overall, I will consider going to this place again, though I'm not sure whether I could stomach 5 2.5 plates of spaghetti meals after giving birth to Spicy Baby in September hahahah...

Happy 31st Birthday to My Hubby!

~ Posted on Sunday, July 31, 2011 at 12:55 AM ~

On the same date 1 year ago, I was just dedicating a post for my hubby's 30th birthday and now, here we are, celebrating his 31st birthday!

I've gotta be honest here, I don't really have much time and resources to get him a memorable (I don't even dare to say good) birthday present. I mean, back in the days when I don't have children yet, I could just go to a shopping mall and scout for some nice present for him. But with Ben in tow now, everywhere I plan (or think) to go, have to be thought carefully. I mean, I don't want to raise any suspicions that I'm going out to get a birthday present and at 8 months+ pregnant now, I'd really rather stay home and rest (no offense to my dearest hubby).

So, the only chance I get to look out for his birthday present was when we were out during our family outing, at which most likely Ben will be tagging along with me anyway.

Anyhoo, long story short, I managed to get something (again, I don't even dare to say it's good) but I think it'll have to do. I know I've told my hubby before that his best birthday present is his children (and now he's getting another one in 1 month time!), so I hope he'll like the present I got him. I chose it and Ben chose the color. He's got good taste! Hehehe...

I've already wrapped it up (had to sneak downstair with some wrapping paper, scissors and loytape) and had just printed out  and made this very cute birthday card template from Disney website (which I think Ben will absolutely go berserk at when he sees it)

Birthday present with the cute looking birthday card in front...

We also have a simple family dinner planned out to celebrate his birthday and I've also arranged with my ever helpful SIL to get this very awesome birthday cake for my hubby (pictures later if I remember to take it hehehe...) So, I hope he'll have a memorable birthday this year!

Happy 31st birthday dear!
