Valentines Day Celebration at Tosca, DoubleTree, KL

This post has been long forgotten. It was Feb 14 and darling said, the dinner venue is a surprise. He picked me up from work, made a turn towards Jalan Tun Razak, and DoubleTree was where we were heading to. It was an interesting experience as the food quality was compromised, and we had our table at the foyer area of the ballroom. Why interesting? Just because it wasn't an unpleasant one, as I had the right company, and that was all that matters that nite. Voila, let the pictures tell you the story.


A glass of bubbly champagne to start the evening

Antipasti
Carpaccio di capesante e caviale Avruga|Impepata di tonno rosso
