The only remedy - dining out with the gals

We chose to dine in here for a real de-stress remedy like what we did last time.

We ordered this again as we love the flavourful light cream sauce drenched on the spaghetti - Al Funghi with Mushrooms and Ceps in Light Cream Sauce and Truffle Oil (RM 23); sadly, it was quite bland and we had to season it with salt and pepper :(

Grilled Organic Chicken on Toasted Ciabatta with basil mayonnaise and tomato salsa (RM 20). Bread was freshly toasted and spreaded with real butter; sandwiched the organic chicken and green. something healthy for us!

Pink in colour represents FIRE element. Giving energy and enthusiasm, an element of natural leader, brings warm and cheers too.

Brown in colour represents the EARTH element. Giving stability and related to real estate and legacies. Earth is patient, just, honest and methodical.
It was real chocolaty and there were chunks of dark chocolate and mixed nuts in the mooncake.
