Ok ok, so its a little late in coming (my bad!) but this week's dinner is going to be a relatively relaxed affair 'k? ;)

So... as for the location it kinda happened like this...

On one of our typical weeknight dinner forays Boon and i had the luck of discovering that the Sri Hartamas Shopping Centre had just opened a whole new strip of restuarants and bars/lounges along its entrance! For example, Modestos has expanded to include a verandah, a live performance open air lounge, and a chinese restaurant among others - all owned by the same people apparently. As such, i'm of the general opinion that we should go down there this weekend and have a look around this new area!

We'll be going to... to... well, i can't remember the exact name but its the Retro American Diner in front of the mall! It seems decent enough and serves good ol' American favourites like cheeseburgers, steak (Lenny?), and the like with the average price of, say, a cheeseburger with fries being about RM17. As an added bonus, if you pop over to the mall's information desk you can pick up one of their promotional brochures (can't remember which one exactly - but there are only three or so) and entitle yourself to a free milkshake (valued at RM12, hehe) if you purchase a main meal - excluding the pastas for some reason... (wtf?)

Anyhow, i figure that for after-dinner drinks we'll hit one of the new bars along the strip and maybe even listen to the live band in action - which, on the day we went there, was pretty good actually (although why they kicked it off with Tracy Chapman's Sorry i'll never know *cue wrist slitting*)

Anyhow, address details (and handy map) are as follows:

Couldn't find a map specifically of the Hartamas Shopping Centre but below you'll find directions to Plaza Damas, which is pretty much part of the Shopping Centre. As for the venue - you can't miss it! Its right along the front of the shopping mall and should actually be one of the first things you see (its the white one with "Retro American Diner" or somesuch on the front), as it is the first restaurant you'd see when driving towards the centre.

Dinner is at 8:30pm as usual and, as per procedure, if you're interested in coming kindly either leave a comment here, email me, or phone me for additional details and/or bookings with details on which event(s) you are coming for and how many friends/mistresses/animals/Hell's Angels/family/etc you will be bringing. During the night itself the tables will be booked under my name.

As always, anyone who reads this is welcome to come! :)
