A Glorious Meal

So Friday night came

and I had a great clubbing schedule set-up

despite my utter disappointment at being

completely

completely completely

unable to get us dinner reservations at Bedsupperclub

at all

throughout the weekend.

*starts tearing

But first,

we had to meet a friend for dinner elsewhere.

To get to the restaurant in Sala Daeng

we took 2 trains

and walked about 3 blocks

(me totterring in stilettos,

trying not to get stuck in pavement cracks)

Zanotti, it was called.

I must start by saying that

at the beginning

I was completely clueless as to what a

gem the night was going to turn out to be.

Our host ordered a bottle of white

while we perused the list of appetizers

I had my heart set on Foie Gras with Raspberry Sauce

when he suggested ordering 2 mixed appetizer platters

the others said okay

I was too polite to object

but getting increasingly sulky

Not only had I not been allowed a glance of the wine list

But I had been denied Foie Gras in favour of

some antipasti platter!

So out I tottered for a ciggarette

(No Smoking at all in BKK's high end restaurants)

and when I went back in

Fucking hell.

Everything was absolutely indescribable.

And then the next bottle of wine came.

A Costa De Almerita from Sicily.

And then our mains came.

I was in seventh heaven.
