My Birthday Treat

I had planned to give my treat today. All my friends confirmed on coming except Nazriya and Raunaka due to personal issues. I wanted a totally different celebration for this b'day , so chose to try new places and new things. I have a lot of things to celebrate for this year and also I kind of have a feeling that this might be my last year with my friends (just one of the weird feelings that I get sometimes, and hope its not totally true). So I wanted to make it grand and wanted everyone to have a great time.

Rish and Zafra came over to my place and we started out a bit late, OK, a lot later than we expected to :). We headed over to a new place called The Sizzles. Sarah Couldn't make it for lunch to something that just came up, but promised to join for coffee.
I ordered something calld Rocky's. The atmosphere was nice but nothing great. There was an E-Fm promo going on in the background. The food was good and different, but the best part was the way that they served it. Its all served on a sizzling plate, so its super hot when it reaches us. We have to wait if we dont wanna ruin the meal by burning our tounges :). We enjoy the aroma first and then the food. And as if that wasn't enough, we ordered a dessert, blueberry cheesecake with ice cream. Even that was served on a sizzling plate, which was really cool. I'm not really a cheesecake fan, so ate a bit of that and icecream. We shared the dessert coz we simply cudnt finish a whole dessert each since we were already stuffed.
We were done by around 4pm.

And from there, Rish had to leave after lunch, due to personal issues, again :D
Zafra's sister Sarah and Sarah Pallaq joined on from there after Rish left.
Our next stop, The Cinnamon Grand - Coffee Stop. And this is where I was providing my treat. We headed there and were waiting .... and waiting for Thamzeela and Rehana to join us. They took a pretty long time to arrive. They arrived at around 5.30 pm and then we started oredring our coffee. We ordered Waffles as well, but those never turned up. And then we thought, since Crescat is next door, why not have an early dinner as well. We discussed and finalized on it.

So the next stop, Crescat Boulevard. Zafra and I simply couldn't eat anything more, but we were forced. I finally agreed to share a submarine with rehana, and Zafra went with soup and fries. We were there chatting and eating until 8pm by which it was time for us to leave. My dad came and picked us, dropped my friends and we headed home. I got loads of gifts :D

Right now I'm ending this amazing day listening to Over You, by Daughtry which is simply amazing. I would say its the best song of the year. I had a superb and an unforgettable birthday celebration, but only wish my other two friends could have joined.
