Girls' Day Out

We arranged for a ladies' day out sejak raya.

it's very hard to find the time where we can just sit together and chat.

monday to friday, of course working days.

weekends are reserved for family.

husband and child. 

mother and father and grandmother.

hardly any time for me to socialize anymore.

Hub has his weekly time with his friends playing futsal.

that leaves me really being a katak bawah kuali.

and i miss my dear besties very much.

so, we took the liberty of planning ladies' day out.

 too bad Jah and Dina are too far away.

 otherwise, it would be chaotic.

we planned for a day off from work and went out for a date.

the agenda: 

chit chat

the menu:

main course and dessert.

we had so many choices of places to eat.

since lately Ben's in on rave, we decided to have some there.

we went to Bangsar Village.

(konon2 nak glamor la ni.:p)

apparently Ben's in BV is not the same with Ben's in KLCC or Publika.

Simaa, who has eaten in Ben's KLCC and Publika few times prior, confirmed it.

(sima mcm food critics la pulak)

definitely i didnt know about this.

i am not an up-to-date person on food. or fashion.

the food was delicious.

i had B.I.G Lasagna

(quite a big portion for me)

the lasagna was not dry. that, i like.

the meat was generous.

so was the cheese.

the taste was great for a lasagna.

the portion was bigger than Delicious' lasagna.

the one turn off thing would be the presentation.

it was toooo simple.

like pek. cedok dan letak.

takde effort nak letak sayur2 hiasan di atasnye.

could improve on that.

azza had Chicken Pormigiana

chicken coated with cheese. which is nice too. but a tad dry

the salad on the side was not my favorite.

it's too sesame-y.

i dont like sesame oil. 

so the taste is not in my liking.

simaa had Chicken Mushroom Pie.

and it was a big pie.

which is yummy too.

again, the presentation could be improved.

the pie was put plainly on a plain plate.

it did not show any invitation to dig in.

if masuk Masterchef, sure2 kena sound dengan chef muka ketat.

we had salads on the side.

i like the salad even though i am not a salad person.

i have never ordered salad in my entire life, except if it comes as a side.

but, i have to say, Delicious has the Best Ever Salad.

i feel like digging in the dressing recipe.

very curious.

after eating and chit chatting,

we went to Delicious for dessert.

haruslah kami berjalan2 ke sana ke mari semata-mata untuk makan.

heheheh

i suggested for Sticky Date Pudding, me and Hub's fav dessert there.

on top of that, we had Chocolicious Pudding, 

(chocolate cake with melted choc inside, serve with vanilla ice cream)

and Macadamia Cheesecake.

we couldn't finished them 

(except for Date pudding)

too full!

so, yes, we had a great time eating and enjoying each other's company.

wished it could a whole day thingie, but our kids (me and azza's) are a priority.

bile Dina and Faiezah boleh join ni.

hm....
