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.

Birthday girl requested for a wristlet. Ask and you shall be given..a BIG one.
Mushroom soup as starter
Laksa Pasta
Mexican Pasta
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.
