I am blessed with a long list of dear friends who make me feel Life is worthwhile even when I am 50 feet under rock bottom, for those true souls I try my best to be there when they need a hug, a shoulder to cry or just a head bobber who can listen. Few weeks back one such dear friend of mine and I were a bit worried about something but instead of letting it bother us too much we figured the best way to beat the blues was to have a slumber party !!! No No No Please don't think teens in pink pyjamas having a pillow fight, our slumber party was more like 2 grown women in mid twenties meeting up after work and having a nice long conversation, sipping warm tea together, reading books and yes you guessed it treating ourselves to a fine dinner :)
We decided to go to Crimson Chakra and Cornucopia for dinner :)
The crab cakes were aromatic, soft and tasty , sprinkled with chopped spring onions, served with a side salad, a mint chutney and a cheese dip !
Moving on to main course!
Frankly my friend and I wanted to order another helping of crab cakes but the main course had arrived by then , and boy we dont have any regrets!
I ordered a mildly flavoured fish fillet, which was marinated in fragrant herbs and cooked with olive oil, flavoured with Jalepenos with a side serving of blanched vegetables and choice of either baked, roasted or mashed potatoes, I picked roasted potatoes.
Absolutely delectable!
My friend ordered Chicken breasted stuffed and cooked with minced mushrooms served with brown sauce, with a side salad of blanched vegetables and roasted potatoes.
By the time we were done, we could barely exhale, leave alone move :P, but dinner without dessert would be like life without love, so we decided to pick one dish and shared it (don't you feel dessert tastes sweeter when shared with a friend).
We chose the Elaneer/Tender Coconut Souffle!

Epilogue
As for us we walked back home laughing all the way and sharing jokes, recollecting fond memories whilst making plans to stay up all night and having a movie marathon ... however we crashed 5 minutes after we reached home and woke up after 10 hours of sleep - not exactly what we planned for but definately rejuvenated:)
