Vincenzo - Ristorante Italiano

Wanna blog bout tis for a while but nv seems to complete it. Well, went to tis function recently(that's way back to months ago !!) in Vincenzo's in Bangsar, organised by a beloved fren, Emma in celebration for her wedding. Now, back to time of her invitation to me to tis function 2 months back. Wedding & function in restaurant...that gave a vision of me wearing splendid baju Melayu "menyiram air mawar" to her & hubby laps' & then proceed for grand dinner..fair enuff.

One month into the event & received tis facebook invitation from that cat. The word Vincenzo popped out in the invitation page & I was like "Wahh..Malay wedding function in an Italian restaurant huh?? Cool cool.." And then there's a theme for tis function: Gals shud be in white & the germs (that wat she called us guys) in black. Headgear(or anythin on the head) is a must for all (anythin on the head will do) Doesn't bother much until the day where I searched high & low for that headgear & managed to find one, in the form of an artist cap, which I barely remember having it in my wardrobe.
Monsieur me seeking to explain the meaning of a life...

The event was to start at 6.30pm. Rushed to pick up few fellas & drove like a mad dog, thinking we're late. Of cos in line with the classic M'sian punctuality culture, we turned out to be the earliest birds & not even one soul can be seen. Went to have a walk instead, to kill time. Settled into tis stall, specially selling apam balik in nearby Lucky Garden. Went back to the place & saw the groom greeting us upstairs. One question popped out: Where the heck is the bride?

Being a gracious host, the groom politely said bride is on the way, traffic jam bla bla bla and "why don't u enjoy the food first while it's hot?" Got myself few cups of spaghetti as appetizers..yes, spaghetti served in cups & they were delicious !! Simply prepared but tasty when it's in your mouth...!!! Talked cock while waiting for the rest of the Fifth Formers peeps to arrive. When the bride finally showed up, dressed up in a She-Devil suit + the horns (as headgear), Emma immediately became the centre of attention. Party ended at bout 10.00 pm, just in time for us to catch the biggest match of the season (Arsenal vs MU) at the nearest mamak restaurant in Bangsar.

U like Italiano food? Come here !! Come here!!

Missed the first half but 2nd half was a thriller & both sides gotta be satisfied with 2-2 draw. Fair result...Continue to talk cock after the match till wee hours with rest of the bunch. Talked bout planning the reunion trip on an island & honestly, we were never tis serious before...finally, we managed to get tis moving after many donkey years...talk bout tis soon...
