Pasta Zanmai @ 1U
Among three, one person can be ignored. For Danny, I sent him early regards a day earlier via messenger. The night of the day should surely be reserved for Bob (call her so coz she likes Bob Dog).
Last year, Feng and I celebrated with Bob at Bumbu Bali Puchong. Banana was on her backpacking trip in China.
This year, Banana and I celebrated with Bob. Feng is working holiday in New Zealand.
Where to go for dinner? This has always been a challenging question...
I left the decision to both of them, and finally, Pasta Zanmai at One Utama was selected.
Western or Japanese food? No worries, Pasta Zanmai can get you away from the hard decision!
Nice menu.

Okay, I'm not a food blogger, and I'm not born with this potential. Same as usual, they would consider what I should not eat, but the birthday girl's preference was still prioritized :)
Her taste bud is very different from me. She's a non-vege believer! Never ever change after so many years...
We ordered 3 meals and 2 desserts.
First of all, some hot green tea was necessary... coz we talked a lot..
Then, the first meal was served.
Hehe, this is an image taken from the menu.
This is the real eatable meal, Grilled Chicken and Hot Spring Egg Pizza, which costs RM20.
To clarify, we had done something to the egg... it actually came in a very nice shape. Next, my specially-ordered Salmon Pizza arrived...
Looks attractive, right? Again, this is just the menu ^^
Both the pizzas taste nice. This Salmon Pizza is RM25.
There was one thing that once we saw, we immediately felt want to order... it's the Squid and Squid-Ink Pasta.
Was curious how would the black noodles taste?
The real meal is very different from the menu, in terms of the plate used, the vege, the color of the squid etc. The fried garlic smelled nice!
The pasta itself costs RM18. If you order the set (comes with miso soup and salad), it costs RM22. We ordered the latter.
We added the brought-along Mills Mayonnaise to make the salad taste better! Actually that was not planned but Bob brought it for me when we met at her place (coz she doesn't eat and I'm a bread person).
It's then time for desserts!!!!!!
Tiramisu was the candidate Number One...
All of us agreed with each other that this Tiramisu is not up to standard. Tiramisu is not like this!!!! Still, it costs RM10.
Candidate Number Two was the "Green Tea Ice Cream with Green Tea Jelly and Red Bean". This name is bloooooooooody looooooooooong...
Better than Tiramisu, but I still found it a bit too sweet. This is RM15.
This was another good eating experience. Suddenly I felt tempted to go to the Coconut House near Pudu again, for the Tiramisu and Italian pizza there.
Next time... next time... not sure when, and not sure would be with who.
P/S: By the way, Banana will be leaving for NZ for Working Holiday too, on 25 June 2008. She'll be meeting Feng then. I don't know when the group of the Truly Treasured will be altogether again.

哇塞!真是豐富呢!
可惜我沒得吃...在這里差點就天天Kiwi了...
下次回来煮特别的kiwi餐给我吃。不要什么磨菇汤和罐头了,也不要红萝卜。
要学到一点功夫才回来哦!
I tried Pasta Zanmai before, not too bad. Still haven't try the Squid Ink though. Sunway Pyramid 2 now got a new restaurant call Pasta de Gohan, which they say is the concept that Pasta Zanmai copied.
Well, try Italianis at 1U also, or Ms. Reeds. However, for desert, it is strongly encouraged (translation: forcing you) to go to Bakerz at Ground Floor of 1U New Wing. Trust me, after you try their signature dishes, you will hate me for introducing you to that place.
haha adrian, thanks for your recommendations... honestly, living so long here, i've only been to 1U twice (first for a movie, 2nd for this birthday dinner). coz it's too big (tend to get lost) and far from where i stay. anyway, during my next visit, will sure copy your list before going.
and the time to hate u will start!
