Why I Want To Eat At Friday's

Or rather, our preferred title, "Thank God It's Friday!"

Finally, the end of the week. Friday's an important day really. Fridays for us tend to be about friends. See, Fridays used to be the one night that the guys get to meet up for drinks. Generally it'll be otousan, 'Vin, lad, Lemon and whoever else who were their classmates and us. A weekly thing that's sorta slowing down now, as work and life makes it more difficult.

We guess everyone sorts of make Friday important too. The boardgamecafe group have their Friday meets at OTK Cheras. Klangites too tend to call for mamak (when the Penang Klangites are back) on Friday nights too.

Well. We remember a memorable Friday last year where we had to stand on our chair, give a speech using a ketchup bottle as a makeshift mike, and blow out cake candles held far away. We think those were joke candles too. Our first time really (thankfully there hasn't been a repeat of that!).

We remember a Friday this year where two friends had their birthdays celebrated together - with also the same routine of stand-on-chair-sing/speech-blow. Dozey Damien gave a speech while Savvy Scholl sang, heh. More memorable about this particular Friday was that camwhores surfaced to take advantage of the two DSLR cameras.

We remember there were a few Fridays with l'agneau orange and NaanBleu. Dinner with them tend to be boisterously loud with laughter. There'd be situations like how NaanBleu would go, "Look! Is that a Millenium Falcon?" and both l'agneau orange and us would turn our heads to look, completely miss the Millenium Falcon somehow and tell NaanBleu, "...no, that's a disco ball..." It was then where we learned about the Very Secret Diaries as well as Zoe Tay's secret.

Dinners with l'agneau and NaanBleu are always good because being meat eaters all, our three dishes will all be meat dishes. So JD Ribs, JD steaks or other seasonal specials will hit the table and we'll all play musical dishes. And their mash potatoes are also another coveted item. It's a shame that we can't take good photographs of the food (we be no food blogger with settings on our iXus to take lovely lovely macro shots) else the Loaded Potato Skins will definitely look as good as it tasted.

We remember a Friday where the three of us went somewhere else for dinner while at The Curve, only to end up at TGIF for desserts, (asides from being meat eaters we're also dessert devourers). Interesting enough, we've never tasted the Ultimate Mudslide the others seem to long for. We only had their Mocha Mud Pie and the Double Chocolate Fudgy Brownie. If you find dinner too filling then just head to these two desserts.

Thing is, we remember our Fridays for being with friends. Heh.

We hearts Fridays.
