Last sunday I met my secondary school volleyball mates for brunch at Artistry. And partly to celebrate our dear friend's birthday,though it was 2 days belated. Come to think of it,we have known each other for a decade already. This year marks the start of the 11th year. We should have had a proper celebration last year. But that day we missed out on a friend who has been busy flying to and fro-the blessings of being an air stewardess.
We sat at the outdoor area which was of a better idea cos of the good lighting for photography and another reason was the indoor dining area was kinda cramped up. People would be sitting side by side and I didn't like it cos there would be no privacy and you'll always be hearing what the neighbours were talking. The outdoor area had a few tall wooden tables and stools. The stools were so deceiving to the eye cos they looked light but oh boy they were so heavy! I guess it could really withstand really heavy weights.
The menu wasn't of much variety. I had a hard time deciding what to eat. Yes I'm a really picky eater that's why the girls let me choose. Ordered the crab burger, duck confit pesto and a side of truffle fries to share between the 4 of us. The crab burger tasted a little weird, probably just not to my liking. The squid ink bun tastes quite good surprisingly. Haha do not judge a burger bun by its colour! Truffle fries were fine. The best was the duck confit pesto. My first time having pesto pasta and I loveeeeeee it! After that day,I totally went to the supermarket to hunt for a jar of pesto to add to my collection of ingredients.
After the mains, we decided to order some little cakes to share. Settled for Red Velvet Cake and Tiramisu. I couldn't tahan the alcohol in the tiramisu. A little too much for me to handle. But the girls liked it. Red velvet was okay. Somehow I guess nothing can go wrong with ordering red velvet.
Nooraini's hub and baby girl came to join us after that. Both of them went to buy an ice cream cake and little Amelia chose it for herself. Got to know that her birthday was around the corner.
Happy birthday once again to the both of you!
