As most days, we always end up around lunch time in central london, because we dilly dally during breakfast always leaving the house at almost 11 in the morning.
I always wanted to take her (and all my guests who visit me) to Dino's one of my favourite pasta places in london, down at South kensington Station.
So i did.
It was logical as the restaurant was a walking distance from the V&A.
Here are some memorable photos that day
***
lovely embossed plates
hungry Ankai
starters that didnt even touch the table for more than a few minutes
with her ticket to get inside the viewing
'who the hell is that?'..ehem ehem..dont ask, i am a woman who loves her pasta,haha.
the foyer of the museum
the beautifully tiled hallway
at the giftshop..after the exhibit
no its not a wide angle lens..my back is indeed wide..*hehehe*
i hate this photo, only because i know, and remember the feeling i had that time..i had to hold my gut in, and pretend i didnt have a big bowl of pasta..
daghan sa Carbon anah..mas barato pa,haha
but those quilts..ahhh, i wanted to covet.
she was exhausted...can you imagine daily laag with a very demanding 'ate'? nyayks!
candid...daw!
she has very bad myopia, but she hates wearing her glasses...so the squinting
one day Turkey, i shall conquer you..just wait and see=)
some ancient costumes from Ottoman times
i have always been fascinated with arabic structures...=)
we joked that she should marry an Arabic man as she loves Arabic food...oh my word, she chews my ears just talking about the Arabian restaurant we ate at..
bowls from a certain time
getting into a cab ..to go make up shopping!!!! LOOK at that excited face=)
the driver a morose Geordie..but he was fast=)
a certain smile..
