Capítulo 12: Night out, night in..
When we went down for dinner, the term fine dining came to mind as we step in the restaurant. I looked around and saw the rows of lined tables with crisp white tablecloths and beautifully folded napkins set the scene for a meal to remember.
The cutleries were tucked in the linen napkins and next to it a displayed menu card. It's decorative flair completed the theme in the place setting.
The waiters are in tuxedos! It IS fine dining! I hope that this restaurant doesn't disappoint patrons and serve the very best food and service, as this restaurant already got the atmosphere.
Hang on a minute, my thoughts running from 0 to 120, if this is fine dining then it is also the highest priced type of restaurant that operates.
I turned to my friend "Skye, I don't have the budget to eat here." I whispered to her quite worried about money.
"Wynter, it's complimentary dinner and breakfast, just enjoy yourself and don't think about money too much, I got you covered!" she whispered back to me. "My dad sent me his credit card before we left, he said on the note, have a blast! So..." waving her hand wider and looking around us.
My eyes turned round and wide like saucers as I listened to her. I think my mouth made the same reaction as my eyes. I shut it quickly, I remembered my Nan saying be careful when you open your mouth or you might catch a fly..
I'm a bit embarrassed on how innocent I am toward this things, but also overwhelmed with gratitude that I get to experience these things because of Skye. Perks of her, having a rich father. Well, I should make a toast for first times. It never cease to amaze me.
We were shown to our table by a tall, handsome waiter. When we sat down, I heard him say politely, "If you need anything, please let me know. You are welcome to come back for more food as much as you can. The plates are in that table in the corner and drinks are in the bar. The restaurant makes the most of the superb local produce of the region. I hope you enjoy yourselves, ladies!"
When he left, Skye said, "Come on! I love their chocolate millefeuille! It's a dessert but you should see how it looks and taste. The pastry here in particular is without parallel anywhere, it is sublime!"
I know Skye loves her dessert. Everytime I stayed in their house, when my Mom goes to work, they never have dinner without dessert.
It is there that I first tried pavlova. Her Mom made a kickass pavlova. It's like a huge meringue, with a very soft and fluffy inside but crunchy outside topped with cream, strawberries and kiwi.
I think we went back a hundred times for food! What the H! We are so full that we can barely walk back to our rooms! When we got there, we watched a little bit of the program Australia's got talent! After the program, both of us were too tired to do anything so we went to bed.
The bed is as described, a king single dream bed. They didn't exaggerate with their description, that the mattresses are the best. Skye said that Ridges designed these mattresses and are exclusive only in all Ridges hotels. It's so soft but firm and comfortable to lie down in. The fresh sheets smells heavenly and the pillows are firm and fluffy.
Once my head hits the pillow, I didn't realise how tired I am. Then like a light, I'm out.
