2days before my birthday, is his first paper exam. Is a final exam for him. He had been locked himself in the study room for the past few weeks. Can really see he is studying hard to get a flying colors result for this semester.
He came and fetched me after the exam finished. And suggested to celebrate my birthday earlier this year. Celebrate means to have a 'better' dinner as he will need to study hard for the next paper on my exact birthday.
At the end, we decided to go to eat his favorite dishes, Pasta!! :)
In fact, I also love Pasta.
We have good impression of Modesto's Restaurant. There are 3 Modesto's Restaurant in SG. We only been to the one in Vivo City. The other two located at Mount Elizabeth Hotel and Orchard.
Once arrived, we order a set dinner for 2pax, which costs SGD48, consists of 1 appetizer, 2 main courses and 1 dessert. Drinks are not included in the set dinner.
Browsed through the choices, most of them are very familiar to us, eg: Insalata Mista, Crema Di Funghi, Spaghetti Aglio Olio Peperoncino, Penne Arrabbiata, Spaghetti Carbonara, Linguine Vongole, Verdure Pizza, Wurstel Pizza, etc.
These dishes are all written in Italian. But, I still able to understand the meaning without checking the description in English.
Here are what we ordered!!!
Spaghetti Carbonara... Not sure this is the original recipe of it. As I know, this dish is without cream, only egg and cheese. Anyway, with the cream, it's yum yum.
Wurstel Pizza. Wurstel is referring to sausages.
And the dessert - Tiramisu!!
I used to make tiramisu quite frequent when I was in Italy. And the taste is almost the same. The little different is that I added coffee liquor. And also mine is not able to be cut into pieces. I tried to analyzed why this piece can be cut so nicely. Then I found out, the biscuit in between the layer were not soak with coffee. But I DID!! Haha... next time I know how to improve. Yeah!
We are really full, when we started the dessert. The portion doesn't look big, but, it's filling. Oh ya, they provided free Italian bread with balsamico vinegar and olive oil right after we finished ordering. I love this very much.
