11.59pm lunchies at cafe casa at towers. i got the salmon fettucine which seemed like it had more salmon than pasta- a first! so it was nice and salmony however it had a bit too much shallots. noods got the chicken and avocado boscaiola which had the most delicious sauce and both pastas came with free garlic bread and a slice of pineapple to get rid of bad breath (and noods just happened to go for the pineapple slice before the garlic bread... lol good one). overall a very generous serving for cafe prices!

4.35pm so i saw this very sexy foto of a pistachio cake at chika's 'she who eats' and since i LOVE all things pistachio i tracked down the recipe to josh's 'the food section' and set off for a bit of grocery shopping. armed with my ingredients i excitedly chopped, grated and sifted all the while thinking of how delicious the cake would be... as the cake baked and the aroma of roasting nuts filled the house i would dance between looking into the oven window and the washing up. impatiently i waited for the cake to cool before i could put the topping on and finally cut a wedge of cake to taste test before realising the obligatory foto had not been taken. anyways the cake was okayish... i think there was a bit too much butter in it as well as the high fat content in the nuts but hey mmm pistachio... becos i wasnt entirely satisfied with the cake i made chocolate cupcakes and made them into butterfly cupcakes with fresh cream. mmm cream...

11.59pm mmm dinner at iso lounge in norwest. the food here is sexy! and they gave us free appertizers cos the restaurant is spankin new. so appertizer i think was rocket and something else (maybe cheese) shots and we ordered the vietnamese scallops for entre which was wonderfully fresh and had a dash of chilli sauce. my main was the blue swimmer crab and king prawn linguine with the crab flesh making its way into every bite i took and the huge king prawns tempting noods even though hes stacks allergic to prawns... noods got the kangaroo fillet mainly becos hes never had kangaroo and i made the mistake of tasting it ("dude this tastes like dog meat! not that ive ever tried dog meat but this is what i reckon it tastes like!") but the portions were huge and we were happy and ordered dessert. i got the lemon cheesecake with lemon coulis and that goldish halo thing is toffee! noods ordered the chocolate fondue which came with orange slices, strawberries, plum, blueberries and peanut brittle (mmm homemade brittle).
