Celtic Park and Emirates Arena

My friend and I took a one hour walk to Emirates Arena and Celtic Park. Both were located opposite each other. Both were mightily impressive. It felt like we were in another world where everything was just so gigantic and spacious unlike the cramp Central Glasgow.

It seemed crazy to walk one hour. Truthfully, before the day came, we were both torn between making the trip or not because it was a long journey. Alas, we did it with no regrets. Along the way we passed by Forge Retail Park and Forge shopping centre. It would not have been something we would have ever seen if it was not for us walking on foot! Forge Retail Park was the place to buy cheap branded clothes. There was also Poundworld there which sold more things than Poundland. Next shop was also having clearance. The downside to Next shop was that there were no dressing rooms and we were suppose to try it on at home and return it to the nearest Next shop if we didnt like it. 

Forge Shopping Centre reminded us of Sungei Wang or Summit USJ. We just walked through. Nothing much. There was an Asda there. 

Zzzz sleepy

Amore Pizzeria, Ingram Street, Glasgow

Another night out for pizzas and I only realised for the frst time that Ingram St had quite a number of Italian restaurants. How is it that we sometimes do not explore the interesting things located closest to us??

A quick walk through Ingram St and we settled for Amore Pizzeria. It was a warm and beautiful summer's night.

Interior of Amore was pretty and cozy! We were snapping photographs and the waiter jokingly said, "We charge for taking phtographs" and another one joined in saying, "Its true." That was how friendly the staff were :)

Comparing the pizza to Barolo Grill's one, I would still recommend Barolo's . For starters at Amore we had breaded mushroom which were quite plain tasting. I must say I preferred Aldi's breaded mushroom more.

For our mains, we ordered pizza margherita and pizza pepperoni.

 Amore's pizza had the thick crust which was tough to eat and the pizza was not nice already when it was cold. Furthermore, the pizzas was too salty for my friend and I. It was hard to finish it without downing with loads of water.

On the bright side, the pizzas were stonebaked and it was not oily. Besides that, the pizza portion was so big that I decided to not eat the crust!

We then shared a tiramisu for dessert.

Tiramisu was so good it made me feel very happy after eating it! Now I would recommend that!!

The bill came with lollipops. Tasted not good. Would have preferred a mint sweet.

The verdict: Starters and Pizza no. Will try other dishes next time. Dessert yes.

Daddy chat

I was having my lunch while whatsapping my dad. I showed him what i ate:

Then, I asked him what he had for dinner since he was home alone. He says, "Two eggs, two sardines and two hundred grains of rice."

Chocolate hazelnut cheesecake @ Barolo Grill

Me: I read raving reviews on their chocolate hazelnut cheesecake. We should try it.

The Scottish: What? You want pudding?

Me: Not pudding. Cheesecake!

The Scottish: Same thing.

....

The cheesecake at Barolo Grill was simply out of this world. We were so stuff from the pizza that we decided to share a cheesecake. 

At first I was imagining the cheesecake to be a triangular shaped size, but it was round. It looked really small when served and was not fit for two people to share ;p

The Scottish: Are you sure you want to share?

We did share because the pizza was quite filling. The chocolate hazelnut cheesecake had a texture like praline and mousse. Imagine taking Nutella from the bottle but a bit softer! It tasted like nutella I guess because of the hazelnut but it was not as sweet as Nutella. One spoon into the mouth and it melts to perfection. It was not cheesy and the base was made of biscuit like other cheesecakes.

The cheesecake was topped with orange peel which went really well with the cake. I'd say its better than eating pizza and steak!

On another note, it was an enjoyable evening because company and banter with the Scottish makes me very happy.

Never a dull moment :)
