something fishy



met Lauren for lunch today after recovering slightly from my tummy flu to celebrate her upcoming birthday on Friday and we decided to eat Fish & Co. at Wheelock Place. I'd arrived early and hence, decided to pop by Marks and Spencer to grab a Triple Choco Crunch for her. Still too early and decided to browse for some books at Borders but nothing fancy catches my eyes (read: too lazy to indulge in any reading, yes, even fashion fails to keep my attention for 5 min surprisingly)

So, Lauren finally arrived at 2.15 and surprise! She got me the exact same identical Triple Choco Crunch from M&S too! haha..we were laughing so hard and both reeled in shocked at how well we know each other's tastes! Had 2 set lunches and I opted for fried fish nuggets, sweet and sour fish for main and passion fruit soda. Lauren's was Cesar Salad, NY Fish & Chips and also, passion fruit soda. I also ordered additional appetiser of grilled calamari (which turned out to be a bad decision cos we had so much food that we couldn't finish it!) The NY Fish N Chips were surprisingly NO different from the normal Fish and Chips they have. Apparently either Lauren and I both have such bad taste buds that fail to detect any of the proclaimed "Stuffed with a generous amount of cheese stuffing) or, the talented copywriters Fish and Co hired were really professional to their filed of creativity and stick tru to their job by listing down a non-detectable item (read: cheese stuffing) in the actual dish;s description itself.
Well, my sweet and sour was OK (nothing drastically awful can ever go wrong for sweet and sour, if an idiot like me can make it too, right?) but Lauren and i were wondering what veggie was lying on my platter when we bite into something crunchy and tastes like melon but i am sure it's not melon. Hmmm....
where's the cheese in the fish fillet?
Anyway, like I said, we were both so filled with all the gorging that we had to proceed to Mango and Zara and tons of other shops to burn off some calories. Oh...we were talking bout dresses at Massimo Dutti, but definitely, that piece of conversation did not include any thing on me and dresses, you know what i mean? haha...
Ended the day with coffee and a warm choco cake at Starbucks before i hit home and Lauren to her church for choir practice.
