I <3 Mitsui's Free Tickets!!

2 days ago i was given tickets to go watch an MPO concert under the invitation from Auntie Louisa.. and i was sooooo glad i decided to go..
-----------------------------------------------

well the day started with breakfast with karen at coffee bean at desa park city..
i had a salmon-scrambled egg thing..
it wasn't all that bad but not good either..
i thought i lacked taste..
haiz..
but it was presented rather well....



we headed back to my place to do some beading stuff...
we're making them to sell...
i need the cash..
hahahah



















-----------------------------------------------

the concert that nite had an italian theme..
there were old violins on display but i didn't touch any...
--- stradivari ---
anyways, since i was given 4 invites i decided to ask michelle and moh..
moh brought a fren along... dun even know her name... tsktsk..

the program was starting only at 6.30pm but we were there at 5pm!! there was a reception thingy that came along with the invites...




the food was lovely!!!! apparently the food was fully catered by mandarin oriental hotel... yum yum yum.... there was rissotto and ravioli, cold cuts, cutesie salmon dishes, stuff prawns............
AND!!!!!! wonderful desserts!!!!

tiramisu, fruits tart/strudle, some fruit pudding thing (lol.. i can't remember the names of anything...), gelato (michelle had 5 scoops!! it was just too yummy~)

we stayed at the food section for the most of the 90minutes before the concert... we love food just too much!!! we were even contemplating to stay there when the concert starts!! hahaha.... well, obviously we didn't get to do that... but the concert was lovely... it was a chamber concert with the players playing 'old' (300yr old) instruments.. the sound was wonderful.. but somehow to michelle the stradivari wasn't as gud as she'd like.. lol.. stradivari must be flipping in his grave!!!

after the concert i had to head back immediatly 'cause i was hitching a ride with auntie louisa.. it was kinda awkward at first.. but eventually the-oh-so-quiet me indulged in a musically oriented conversation in the car... hahaha...

-----------------------------------------------
post concert dinner...
my parents made me drive them to desa park city for dinner..
at 9.30pm!!!!

we went to the relatively new place 'la casa'
mom had a smoked salmon ceaser salad while i had a mushroom soup..
the soup was yummy....
and the salad was delish!
the salmon was very fresh and was nicely snoked???
haiz..
i gotta go learn my foodie terms..
hahah...

-----------------------------------------------

so a rough summary of my day..
i had salmon for breakfast, lunch (or rather tea) and supper!!! hahaha
so much salmon in a day..
but it was all lovely :)
