THOSE RAINY DAYS
{rolling stones shirt, seven jeans}
You know how it is when it's raining outside and all you wanna do is just lay in bed and do absolutely nothing? It was exactly like that last Thursday. The skies were dark and it was pretty cold coz of Typhoon Chedeng. There was only one thing that could get me out of the house: good Italian food. That's where Bellini's come in.
because life isn't sweet without yummy food ;)
bread sticks
foccacia bread
onion soup
tartufo
mom's chili and anchovy pasta
yummiest orange cake ever + dessert wine
wall murals of famous Italian spots
the paparazzi wall
Signor Roberto with Frank Sinatra
the servers in Bellini's speak Italian, how cool!
the cake display
cheers!
with Signor Roberto Bellini who graciously visits and talks to the diners. it was so embarrassing coz when he came over to our table to ask how everything was, when he asked what my name was, I had this brilliant idea to blurt out "mi chiamo Reg". he responded in quick Italian and I knew then and there that my Basic Italian was not enough at all! I was blushing like hell coz I was soooo embarrassed!!! Note to self: you have a minor in French and your French is not that good, what makes you think your one semester of Italian is enough?! hahahah!
So there, that was my rainy Thursday :)
On a more personal note, I'm currently going through some rain as I embark on a new chapter in my life. Include me in your prayers? :)
