Met up with a bunch of people at Gino's in Freo for dinner, to celebrate the birthdays of
maharetr and
wobowikkles.
Waiter - Here's your Penne Zingala.
Me - Really? It looks wrong.
Waiter - No, it's the Zingala.
Me - Are you sure?
Waiter - *rolls eyes* YES.
Me It looks like meat.
mr_booboo - No, it's eggplant.
Me - Cos it looks like meat.
Boo *tastes* No, it's eggplant.
Me *stares*
Me - Does this look like eggplant to you guys?
Wobo - No, but this meal I'm eating tastes like eggplant.
Me - Is that what you ordered?
Wobo - No, I ordered meat.
Waiter *ostentatiously ignores us as we exchange meals*
Moved on to Frarri for coffee and dessert. I wanted to go to Frarri the moment I saw it (I haven't been to Freo in years) how can you NOT want to go to a place that decorates itself like a sports car??? Good coffee, good service, but the sticky date pudding wasn't fresh, and then when I went to pay they tried to overcharge me.
Seriously, first the wrong meal, then the overcharging - and this a normal dining out experience for me! I'm like, Cafe Cursed.
Later, we drive past the shiny hotel on the way to Boo's so that I can move a car out of a driveway for her - I thought I'd have to move the seat back, but for the record, for such a tiny person,
haunted_attics has like, the longest legs in the world.
Me - I wonder what the rooms are like in the Esplanade Hotel.
Boo - They are fabulous!!!
Me - Oh, have you stayed there?
Boo - No, I've been to conferences.
Me - Oh I went to a work function there years ago. Huh. I remember what I wore. Well, I remember what top I wore. *pause* I wonder what happened to that top. *pause* I have deep thoughts, don't I?
Boo - I have a pimple on the back of my head.
