The day when couples candle lighting, singles go out partying

Valentine’s is a day when frower sellers hike the price to almost 100% from the normal price tag and cuddly toys and chocolates are sold like hotcakes.

For one day, inflation was steadily going up, and boy, as singles, we are just glad we are single. At least, we don’t have to look for ideas to amuse our other half on that one single day.

I decided to go out with a couple of my single girlfriends yesterday night. Initial plan was to swing down to TGIF and get a decent dinner before driving over to a pub for drinks. I received a call from Anna saying that TGI was booked and she decided that we should meet at Modesto’s in ZON instead.

The thing about Modesto’s is that the quality of the food is inconsistent. I once had a nasty experience of being served dried rubbery grilled chicken with cold pasta instead of hot. It used to be a great place with great food. Now the servings are cut down to almost half and for that kind of pricing, I would rather go to TGIF and splurge on delicious food and great beer. I went for a safe bet of Pizza and Soda, while my two other Chiccas went for grilled salmon and salmon pasta.

Thankfully, the food turned out to be okay yesterday night. But the serving is still pretty sad.

We were all out yesterday, despite a bit of drama earlier in the day. i was dressed up, all ready in my jeans to have fun. We hopped over to a pub which is owned by a friend of ours, and opened a bottle of Chivas. There was a live duo playing and we were dragged to sing our own version of a song that I don’t even know.

Minus the drunk uncles and all, we Chicas had a great singles’ valentine.

And we also got to know about a certain gay bar down the block, we planned to go on their ‘Banana Night’, whatever the heck that means. :P
