El Cerdo's

I was thinking for the longest time ever to bring Darling for meal at Elcerdo, Werner's place.

You see, we both love pork. I don't think we can ever avoid more than two meals without a touch of pork, ever.

Especially Darling, whose favourite is the suckling pig.

So, on his birthday, I thought, hey, why not? Because I have heard how yummy is their suckling pig!




Elcerdo is situated at Changkat Bukit Bintang, just behind my place. It's so convenient to get there after work despite the crazy traffic!!!


Plus plus plus!!! The website has this cute piggies!!!!!!!





Cute right?


And then I remember this thing from The Simpson's ...


Spider-pig, Spider pig ....


Remember this?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

:D


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA



Oh man ... I have to re-watch this movie again. It's hilarious!



Anyway, ok, sorry to get distracted. But don't you love that movie!!!!!! Anyone who said you don't like that movie should just skip this blog now.

Okok, I'm just joking. You know I love you.


So, after work that day, I went to One Utama to get the sparkling candles. It is like the nicest candles you can find. At first I wanted to buy the spoof candle that can never blow out ... you know, to play a prank. But it was so much more expensive *cheapskate* and the sparkle ones would look so much better on the special Werner's dessert I have ordered.

Then, I drove to Elcerdo before going home to talk to the manager, Max, and passed him the candles.


We went to Elcerdo later that night and I knew I would love the place as soon as I walk in. The ambience was superbly comfy.

Plus, the waitress gave me a stool for my bag.


Love!!!! I believe all restaurants should have this. Save us women all the trouble okayy.



I was very happy like it was my birthday.




Haha

Then, we went on and ordered the entree: Jamon platter


And then, saw something interesting over the next table and ordered Darling's favourite Suckling Pig. :)


So the suckling pig came and there was this ritual.

The waiter was there to explain how pigs symbolise wealth and luck to the Spanish people.

So, the ritual starts by using the plate, knock on the tray 3 times.


And then, you use the plate to chop off at the neck and the tail, which is the softest part of the piggy.


He did it!

And them, you're suppose to make a wish and throw the plate into this wooden bucket!


The waiter reminded Darling that he can only make ONE wish. Cannot be greedy.


See~!


So the suckling pig came back afterward nicely chopped and served with side dishes.


We were so full... up to our necks!

Then, Darling wanted to have the bill.

I said "NO, I want dessert."

So, he asked for the dessert menu.

I, on the other hand, was waiting anxiously for them to bring out the dessert before he order another dessert! I'm already very full!

Anyway, they were taking some time with the decorations. Darling ordered the vanilla ice-cream.


After a while... actually quite a long while as it seems...about 5 of the waiters came out singing the special Elcerdo's birthday song! It was hilarious! Very very cute!



Happy birthday to you, OINK OINK, Happy birthday to you, OINK OINK, Happy birthday happy birthday ............ Happy birthday to you, OINK OINK!!!!



Wahahahahahahahahaha

I was laughing away when Darling's face was in shock and -_______-!!!! when he heard the "OINK OINK" part.

Hahahahahahhaahhahahahaha

Anyway, it's fun. :)



Ain't the dessert pretty!!! Got pig one!!!


But I was a little disappointed with the candles. It is suppose to have sparkles!!!! (I think cheap things are like that lah kena tipu already fml)



He blew the candles with a smile on his face afterward :)

I'm satisfied. That's all I want.

The waiter later came and told us that Darling can have the little wooden pig placed on his dessert as it symbolise good luck.

Then, the served us a complimentary digestive drink.


He was mentioning that the drink is a concoction of a few things like bla bla bla... Martini... bla bla bla, lemon.

-_____-!!!

It was so so yummy!



We cheered for the night and for the rest of the year. :)


And Darling came to my house to collect his bag, I saw a HUGEASS cockroach on the wall near to the ceiling. I told him to make sure he chase the cockroach away before he goes home.

Then, I scuffled to the kitchen to wash some stuff when I heard "BONG"

I went into the room and saw Darling rubbing his head. His forehead was a little swollen. :(

I asked him "Why did you use your head to chase the cockroach away?"


Ya lah I know I asked the wrong question la but you know I wanted to make him smile a little and he did so ok lah!

He accidentally knocked on the wall when he was really concentrating on the cockroach.

Anyway, he's feeling so much better now.


Happy Friday everyone!!!
