So sweet of Celene, a pretty gal i knew when i worked in Jurong East Branch of HSBC.. She came to join us for a couple of months while waiting for her exams results.. Am glad she joined us cos we became good friend after that.. Brother, Celene and myself were on duty at the front desk and we had a good time joking and sharing all her "tidbits" for all those months...

After she left and i moved on to Vivo City Branch, we didnt get to meet up that often but whenever she meets her frens in Vivo, she will call me up for coffee or a chat in CoffeeBean or Starbucks..

So today, we met up for makan in BakerZin.. She then introduced me to Joe the manager in charge.. Nice gal.. Sweet of her to recommended some nice dessert to us.. Both of us have pasta.. mine was aglio olio spaghetti (spicy) which was pasta in olive oil with garlic and a great serving of ham and bacon while Celene went for "Spagetti with meatballs" which is in a spicy tomato based sauce.. http://www.bakerzin.com/pastas.asp

Mine tasted nice except for the seeds not being removed from the chilli padi that was tossed with my spagetti.. I am someone who enjoy spicy food and thus i do actually eat up the chilli that were served with my food as garnish.. I put that down in the feedback form (oops.. )

There's a promo that is going on whereby a Rum and Raisin Ice cream will be on the house if a main meal is order after 3pm or something (check out from Bakersin website please) and we got our ice cream.. Served in a small glass, slightly taller than a "shooter" glass.. Ice cream tasted just nice, not too sweet and had bits of raisins soaked with rum.. The 2 raisins on the ice cream as decoration tasted abit too strong with rum which i didnt really like it..

Then Joe recommended the Chocolate Cake.. A specialty of Bakerzin. She mentioned if we didnt try this , it is as good as not been to Bakerzin.. She insisted that we go for it and i tell you, i didnt regret it at all...

Its a small round chocolate cake topped with a semi egg shape vanilla ice cream with strawberries and raspberry by the side and yah.. strawberry sauce.. Once we spoon into the cake, a chocolate lava flow out from the cake.. hence, that explained why we need abt 10 to 15 mins for our order to be ready cos the cake need to go back into the oven to bake or warm up so the chocolate in it will melt and thus "flow" out.. Thanks Joe..

Bakerzin served a wide variety of cakes, pastry, danish and their oh so lovely looking, tasting cakes.. I tot of taking a pic of their display but didnt dare to.. Perhaps i should ask Joe to let me snap a pic of their cakes.. http://www.bakerzin.com/sliced.asp

and the bill came up to LESS than $30.. I think its a good place to try if you feel like a nice and not so exp meal on a special day.. and of cos the company of a wonderful friend is priceless...

Thanks Celene.. Miss you ordei...
