We left home at 7:30pm for dinner at Bangsar. We only reached the restaurant at 8:30pm. It was so jammed last night; I bet it’s because everyone was rushing to town to meet their sweet Valentine.
Upon reaching the restaurant we were greeted by beautiful decorated rose petals and candle lights. Its Cava restaurant and bar, serve Spanish cuisine, special wines and cocktails. Only 3 tables were occupied at that time.
We then ordered entrée of half a dozen escargots with butter and herbs; I went for baked cod fish, and hubby a lamb shank. Coupled with beer, I know, how inappropriate to have beer in that environment. Anyway, the food came in a short while when we chit chatted away happily. Other Valentines slowly arrived and filled up the entire restaurant. The placements of tables were a little too close to each other therefore I was a bit coy to snap photos of my food.
We waited for a least half and hour before our main course was served. I was running out of patience, hubby jokingly said maybe the chef wanted to have personal “TOUCH” to all the food he serves. Come to think about it I did feel uneasy after my fish dish. Other than the food came slow, it wasn’t all that nice( my cod fish’s skin was burnt black) and it didn’t have enough room for privacy; we could hear other couples’ conversation beside us. Arrgh… so constrain, don’t like it!
Anyhow, after we’d finished out food, we could stay no more. We called for bill and to my surprise it totaled up to RM185++. Huh! I secretly told hubby I would never go back there again unless my friend treats me to. He said “hey girl, please don’t sound so cheapo”.
Later hubby told me “Victoria station” is better. He is a hard core fan of Victoria Station. Any big, medium, small occasion also loves to go there. I insisted to try new restaurant nowadays.
No offence, food was nice when my friend first brought me there in Cava but the space was a little too tight for me last night. Hubby said jokingly, “Oooi, not enough money to buy big tables, I can buy for you!” *Rolled eyes*
As we were about to leave, hubby asked for a heart shaped balloon for bb.
Well, at least bb was happy with the balloon and we both were good company for Valentine’s day. What more can I ask? I think I will prepare candle light dinner myself at home next Valentine’s day other than splurging money away like that. What do you think?
