Dinner included Jade, as well as SW (aka Dr. Wong's lovely sidekick) and Lil, whom I've never met before but is lovely too :D. I was well behaved and tried not too have too much of a potty mouth. Hehehe. Anyhow dinner was at Horoki Casual Dining Bar, which I have never been before but was a nice surprise given that I am always on the prowl for good Japanese cuisine (read: not made by honkies) in Melbourne. I would definitely go there again for the cosy ambience, slightly fusion but not too try-hard food. We had the degustation menu for a mere sum of $35 (7 courses) and while it filled us bird-like eating females, I would recommend having something extra if any person of the testosterone variety decided to join dinner.
The interesting stuff - photos.
All of our teapots having a tea party.
Moo and J in her Target top - it's noice!
Bao and I not being stupid for once.
Course 1: Tuna carpaccio with shaved cheese - yummy!
Course 2: Me getting very excited about a sashimi salad.
Course 3: The obligatory sushi and nigiri.
Course 4: Gyoza filling stuffed into chicken wings.
Course 5: Garlic butter with octopus or squid, I can't remember.
Bao maintaining her asian identity and insisting on tearing up her bread with chopsticks only.
Course 6: Battered prawns. SW wasn't being sick, she just didn't want to be in the photo.
Course 7: Some kinda of beefy meatball. The photo is blurry because Moo doesn't know how to use my camera properly.
Dessert was a bit of pannacotta with a strawberry topping. Yummo!
After dinner, J, Lil and SW had to split and so Bao, Moo and I went to watch The Devil Wears Prada. I didn't bother to take any photos of us in the cinema because that would've been just too sad of me. I quite enjoyed the movie, possibly because I haven't read the book and I didn't check the time of my watch thoughout the movie at all! For all clothes loving girls, seeing the main character prance around in her designer clothes and perfect make-up is enough incentive to go and watch this movie. For all guys, unless they are gay, I would give it a miss.

I'm commenting in your blog. I saw that movie and found it rather entertaining. I think it's well worth seeing even for a guy!
