Sophia Peh's Bd dinner @ Covelli @ Orchard Central

15 April 2013

As we get busier and busier, we tend to meet up with friends less and less often.  Thankfully Birthdays are always a perfect reason to meet!  So last Friday, we pre-celebrated Sophia Peh’s BD at Covelli, an Italian restaurant at Orchard Central.

Once again, I spotted this Groupon deal –  3 course dinner for 4 pax at $78!!  Isn’t it so worth it?!  So I happily helped Sophia to purchase it.  The restaurant is located at Basement 2 of the mall.  As Orchard Central is usually not crowded, this restaurant is a good place to meet up with friends as it is very quiet and allows for a lot of privacy.

Upon entering the restaurant, Miss Peh immediately said “HUH, take photo under this kind of lighting is very unforgiving one leh!”  Hweehong and I was like “-_-“,  “You ok ma??.  Anyway we decided to ignore her and continued taking pictures!  So moving on to the food part.

Panna cotta – I was shocked to find my panna cotta served in a plastic cup!  It should be served on a plate with berries and drizzled with caramel or strawberry sauce. Nonetheless, it was still worth it because of the Groupon deal.



I always like to end with a group photo to put a happy ending to the night.
