Trying new restaurants

Today is the second day of the 4-day weekend. After we woke up, we had some breakfast and then headed out to Ikano to pick up a few things. We wandered around for a while, had a coffee, picked up some fishing line, unsuccessfully tried to squeeze in a waxing appointment and bought some plastic poster board before  heading home.

I spent the afternoon with Ross cutting small dividers for the bead cabinet drawers and lining them with fabric. We got through half of the 80 small draws before we had had enough for the day. We watched a couple of episodes of the Tudors before getting ready to go out for dinner.

Ross had booked NeroVivo - a really nice Italian restaurant that I had wanted to try. Ross had been there before with work and had said it was excellent. We drove up to Changkat Bukit Bintang and even as we opened the door we were impressed already. Someone was there to greet and seat us immediately and we were served bread with oil and vinegar straight away.

The staff had great knowledge of their wine list and menu and we were impressed when we were actually asked how and when we would like the meals to be served! Normally you are lucky if you get your meals at the same time in Malaysia.

We enjoyed our salad starter followed by our pasta dishes (veal ragout with spinach for me and duck confit ravioli for Ross). Both dishes were delicious. We even managed to squeeze in dessert. I had a really unusual gorgonzola pannacotta with grilled figs and raspberry coulis. We finished our glass of wine and savoured the excellent meal before heading home again.

Although it was only 9, we were both tired but we still managed to watch one more episode of the Tudors before heading to bed. A really nice day.
