al dente at the esplanade. dinner for two. an italian flaire and cuisine. that's how i celebrated darling's burfdae on his burfday itself. after suffering from a sleep deficit from his burfdae party the night before, both of us managed to pull ourselves out of bed to meet for the planned dinner i had for him. had wanted to take pics of the food: his steak and my oven-baked cod. after all, how many chances would we have to dine at an italian restaurant? but a real pity we didn't have a digi cam. so no pics. :(
