Lamb Madness



My powerful desire for lamb continues eventhough the month of Ramadhan has long gone. I never say 'no' to my collegues who always ask me for a superlicious lamb course for lunch or dinner. But this time I had to let go because I'm broke!! I totally am!

Well, I had to tell the truth that I am broke because that's the only reason my collegue would believe if I refused. (daym, my freaking salary was paid too early) The place recommended was at Al-Rawsha, Jalan Damai, Ampang. It's a cosy Lebanese restaurant.

No.. I can't afford to have it at this moment. It was a great temptation though as my collegues kept asking me to join the group, and the images of lamb slices kept popping out of my head, sometimes it turned to lamb shank, lamb kebab.. My empty stomach made a growling sound.. and yet, I still refused the offer. I'm broke, okay!

So they went down the office and ready to go. But Kak D made the effort to call me for the last time.. "Ala.. tak apa, takde duit takpe, meh la join skali, jom la, jom la!" See, I'm not the one who's craving for lamb okay, I just didn't have the heart to turn down the invitation.... heheheh

We had Lamb Mandy (it just reminded me of Mandy Moore, funny) for everyone of us, except Kak D. (it's the lamb cooked together with the rice). We also had Arabian Salad (the usual salad with olive oil) and Mayonaisse Salad (just like normal coleslow). And all of us decided to have the Al-Rawsha cocktail (mix of fruits like mango, banana, avocado etc) which was a bad decision! The cocktail was verrrryyyy thick and sweet, just like smoothies and you never know how it feels to finish it all up after having a heavy lamb meal. I should have had an iced lemon tea instead.
