happy birthday Jin!

My first time in mid-range Italian fine dining Michelangelo's (in Pavilion) was some 5 years ago...(i think). Ever so gladly, I was recently back here for their highly-recommended Lunch Set.
It was also the perfect 'new' place to bring Jin for her birthday lunch. She's always game on eating something never eaten before, seeking new foodie adventures.
For the rather posh setting we got, their lunch sets of between RM 20+ to RM 40+ was a good deal, coupled with a surprisingly tasty lunch!
me n fong who was non stop praising this place
The set comprises of an :-
Appetizer + Main Course + Dessert + Beverage (freshly brewed Italian coffee/ tea)

Choice of appetizers were either Bruschetta (which none of us ordered so no pic, sorry), Mushroom Soup (see below)...
the 'wild mushroom' kind topped with a generous swirl of cream
..or Caesar Salad (as below). Already impressed with the appetizers, we were hopeful for our main courses. :-D
I only have 3 different main courses to show here as quite a number jumped on the bandwagon of the 'Chili Lime Prawn Spaghetti'. The verdict from my friends - very dry. haha, what did they expect...should have gotten the carbonara or marinara instead ma...This spaghetti set costs RM 26.90
One guy ordered the Coney Sandwich set (RM 25) who then claimed it reminded him of A&W's Coney Dog. lol...No-la, it wasn't that similar...this one had damn tasty wedges at the side!
I was extremely pleased with my order of Pesce a la Florentine , which i will loosely translate as Whitefish in Pesto Sauce...Though the portion wasn't a big one, but the fish accompanied by the lovely sauce was to die for. I literally licked my plate clean! This set's priced at RM 25 too!
All in all, there are 4 sets to choose from for each week, with a different menu every week.
This lunch promotion lasts till 30 Sept, and i ain't too sure if they'll extend the promo then. Best thing is, it's available every day except Sunday. So yeah, you can head on down here for a Saturday lunch!

Finish off a nice lunch with coffee/ tea and your choice of dessert (Panacotta or Crema Catalana). This here is the Panacotta which was mm...mmm....mmmm....mmmmm... In other words, speechless.

Of course, the main celebration (apart from the one my tummy was having), was Jin's birthday.
What's a birthday without making wishes and blowing out candles on a cake.
And even if it's not your birthday, feel free to 'tumpang' your wishes with the birthday girl.
notice Danny's also making a wish..lol
The cake that Jin is announcing she'll cut into, is a Tiramisu from A Slice of Heaven.
We got Danny saying "Aaaamm!...." to Jin.
One for the album!
Dun mind Danny's expression, have no clue what he was trying to portray.
Nice place to dine......nice decor with artistic pictures on the wall, like this one. ..
Trust Jin to be the first to realise that the male model was missing a certain something. .
