Cafe la Gaffe
I'm keeping today's "report" brief
(coz I have to start my revision << good student !_!)
We used hours and hours to plan out today's event -_-
(it's so hard to organize an even and get everyone agreed on the time and place! I had NO idea that it could be SO hard! Any professional event planners out there? I adore you.)
Participants: Wendy, Nicole, Me, Alice, Janice, Felix
sorry for those who couldn't come >_<
This French restaurant is one of the three that are located near campus, this is one of the reasons that we chose it.
It's a small restaurant and the place was packed :/
They changed the menu a lot, the options for main course were no longer those I saw on the website lol
Salad
Soup (a little spicy)
Pate (my plate), the pate tasted like rabbit's meat (but the last and only time I had rabbit was when I was ~7 years old, in French lol)
Chicken breast + pasta
I think the sauce was nice :)
Grilled salmon + pasta
Didn't choose this coz I already have a few pieces of salmon fillets sitting in my fridge lol but this looks so yum! (love pasta to death!)
My risotto Fav plate of the meal!
with scallops (very tender) :)
However there were pieces of beef/pork (not sure what -_-) mixed in that were dry, tough and chewy :S
Desserts:
Belgium chocolate cake, baked with rum and banana
If I were to choose again, I'd go for a lighter dessert ._.
Another choice.
No one chose lemon cheesecake, which I wanted to try lol
Regret!
I'd rank Horizons Restaurant as 1st!
Oliver & B and Cafe la Gaffe both take the 2nd place :)
coz Oliver & B has a great dessert (impressive bread pudding) while Cafe la Gaffe has a nice main course (Risotto) :]
My aunt and I have already come up with some "strategies" that we should use for next time's Winterlicious/Summerlicious,
For example:
1) Never order salads coz preparing salads doesn't require much cooking skills lol
2) Go for Winterlicious on alternative days (I just did 3 days in a row), so we could enjoy every experience to the fullest. :)
Next thing to do:
Go burn all that extra fat off!!! lol
