Last weekend it was my birthday and like every year I have one get together with friends and another one with my family. This year after some stress where to go and have a meal with the family I decided to book a new little Italian restaurant which is close to my flat in Gibraltar.
This restaurant is called Casa Brachetto and even though that it was new on the food scene in Gibraltar, it turned out to be one of the best places to have Italian in Gibraltar. I had my favourite starter Carpaccio de Manzo followed by pasta with mushrooms with prawns. Apart from the meal, the surroundings of the restaurant are also very nice as the it is built into one of Gibraltar’s old fortification walls.
The other best part of the night was the gifts which were all very nice. My sister, mother and father gave me matching jewellery and my brother gave me a nice shirt which. But the gift Nadia that gave me was the biggest surprise I have had - I also found out that everyone can keep a secret from me, even my work colleagues.
Nadia gave me a weekend in London with her (she will be working there the week before I get there as she travels with work). We have been talking about going over to visit London for a while but we have never found a time to go, so she decided to surprise me and she booked the hotel, the flight and even my leave from work.
The next day we had friends come over to our flat for some coffee and cake as the weather was supposed to be really bad but turned out to be a nice day after all.
