met jialing for dinner on monday. like FINALLY! (: decided to try something different. so met at central! i saw that brightly lit restaurant from the outside right at the small corner. Pasta de Waraku. its this italian-japanese fusion restaurant that serves alot of pasta dishes. they have over 50 different kinds of pasta. each with their own unique taste. they have several different sauce bases to choose from, mainly cream base, tomato base, creamy tomato base, basil base, soup base and so on. they also serve baked food items. had a hectic day at school, rushing through my intro to politiks presentations and all, thats why was lookin forward to a good dinner. sup to meet david as well. but he had a dinner with his mum, so we went ahead first.
the pasta dish is reasonably priced, $12.90 average for each one. More exotic ones like cod roe pasta will cost abit more of cos. each pasta dish came with a side salad. I concluded that most side salads that is served in restaurants these days cant go too wrong. the one i had was quite nice, serving as a refreshing starter. I ordered the salmon with tomato basil linguini pasta. jialing had the chic mushroom creamy tomato linguini pasta. both dishes were nice! (: i went on a monday evening, and we had to wait about 15mins in queue. can so imagine what it ll be like on a weekend night. gosh.
my pasta came with chunks of salmon and tomatoes. the salmon was a tad too salty though. tasted like it was soaked in salt. eew. but the pasta itself is alright overall larh. the pasta sorta neutralised the saltiness a little.
jialing s pasta looked nice! its like tomatoish and creamy looking. really appetising. hee. i feel that this place is abit overrated with the media publishing. the variations are innovative no doubt, but i think somehow goodness will be compromised in the process. i like the decor of the place doh. really nice ambience as it overlooks the Singapore River and Clarke Quay. yarps. after dinner we went for dessert! the hokkaido ice cream. so yummy. my fav black sesame ice cream ran out. BLARHHH so i had to go with the green tea one. yarps sat by the river and jus chatted with jialing. feels good to hang out w her again! (: nice company.
thn we left to timbre to meet david! that david was late!!! by very alot lah. but since he s leaving, we forgave him. cheryl came to join us with ah cai. hee we jus chilled and listened to michaela sing. this girl s power !!! she can play and sing well at the same time. gosh. and she plays the piano by memory. -applauds- so funny.
yarps. hope david enjoyed his small lil farewell. and the songs ling and cheryl dedicated to him. all the best in manc david! (:Labels: japanese
