gizie decided to set-up a farewell dinner thursday night at the cheesecake factory for ice since he was flying back to manila early friday morning. so yeah, in the multiple times i have stayed here in chandler, it was the first time i dined out at the cheesecake factory. its not that i don't like food (believe me i love it!), its just that you can get caught up in the multitude of work you have to finish that you can't find time to sit in a decent restaurant and pass the time away (wine or beer on hand). i must say the thai chicken pasta was awesome, the farfalle with chicken and roasted garlic exquisite and the grilled salmon special was perfect. nachos + spinach dip is always good company to a bottle of bud lite. yeah, bud lite's a constant companion these days. the free chocolate bread was warm and tasted like heaven so gizie, ice & i finished every morsel and we had to ask for some more.
as usual, we never finished our portions of the meal and i was stuffed full after gorging on a quarter of the pasta. of course we had to have cheesecake - the dessert is the whole purpose of the meal right? we had a chocolate+oreo cheesecake that was just sinfully delicious that you couldn't help but get a few more bites. larry was giz & i's saving grace on the cheesecake while juan for my pasta and ice's grilled salmon. it was a fantastic dinner, a bit expensive @ $30 each but overall it was worth it. this trip is really becoming more enjoyable than my other trips.----------------------------------------------------------------------
my trip is officially extended up until w28. already made arrangements to change the date of my return flight to july 15. that's four more weeks of sun, excellent meals, non-stop english and mingling with the locals. there's at least more time to think about getting a suunto and an oakley. oh yeah!
