Dinner
Gafor and I decided to try out an Italian Restaurant down at Dagu Road.
We got there around 6pm. Initially, it looked like the place was hosting an exclusive party. Well, it was, only at the first floor area but the second floor area was open. So, off we went and the wait staff brought us to our seats.
I ordered a Salmon Salad for appetizer while Gafor got himself some soup. For our main dish, Gafor got a Codfish dish with pumpkin paste and a hint of tangy lemon while I tried out the Tuna dish with some anchovies and tomato paste. (Note to self: Keep the name of the dish in mind next time for documentary purposes.)
We were served with complimentary slices of bread while waiting for our food.
And not for long, our food arrived. I was impressed. It was a very hearty proportion of steamed, fresh tuna coated with anchovies piled up one after the other in a neat, fancy presentation with tomato paste at its base.
Yummy, yum, yum!
