baby trying to kill herself by drinking the sangria i've made. i've poured the whole bottle of white wine n oso added a HUGH stash of brandy in it. by the time i've drank less than half, i was like floating around. potent!
soemhow i felt that i can make better paella.
salsa for the fajitas.

i "revenged" by sending this to them on xmas day.crap max.
baby n i went to this italian trattoira for some simple italian food.
v rustic cuisine from the naples.
this is the homemade ravioli stuffed w crab meat and riccotta cheese, w seafood and squid ink. the squid ink is also homemade, braised for 6 hours everyday. my oh my. this dish is fantasic. first bite n u felt the "Q"ness of the ravioli. the filing was fresh n sweet, the seafood was cooked perfectly, n the best part was the squid ink sauce. it was salty w the flavors of the sea. i am like swimming n the ocean when i ate this. so good! the flavors of the sea juz bursted n danced in ur mouth. master piece.
this harmless looking fella is the 12 inch pizza bianco w porcini n black truffles. i will die for this too. simple but yet tasty. the umami porcini mushrooms n the fragrant black truffles. fungi extravaganza!!!!
crust is crispy n thin. n they dun stinge on the mushrooms n truffles. so good.
this is the signature lemon cake. i muz say that the desserts here r way better than our fav valentino. sigh. this cake is fragrant w lemon, yet nt sour. moist n tender. v good.
their signature espresso. potent. v v good coffee.
we tot that the food here is good n affordable. will be here again to try out other dishes. highly recommended to M & C as a substitute to valentino (to stop the bleeding in ur wallets). these r really good food for the price.
we cant resist having a cup of coffee n a pc of our fav cake b4 collecting our xmas cake. we went to collect our xmas cake after our xmas lunch at our main office.
piggy goodness. my family tradition. ppl eat turkey for xmas, my family ate roast pig, char bee hoon (yummy!) and sashimi/sushi for xmas dinner.
saw the missing pcs already? no roast pork can survive in my family. we r the sio der exterminators.
