Christmas Eve 2011 Dinner at ALEA

My housemates and a few other close friends went to town for Christmas Eve dinner. We were in ALEA, a casino restaurant with Christmas dinner package of 3 course meal + cocktail for £25 and £10 bet voucher as gift.

Buffalo wings as starter:

The environment is actually pretty nice, looks like a place for fine dining to me. Despite having duck meat for the pass 2 days, I ordered the Asian Duck for main course. I've seen bread stick but potato stick sure is interesting. Dessert is cheesecake with ice cream, yummy.

Main course and dessert:

Finally, it's time for fun. I've been into a casino several times, but it's the first time betting on a table. Since the voucher can only be played on the roulette, we collected 6 of our voucher and place 3 on red and black each. This guaranteed us 50% of chips in return (unless it spins to 0) and there we go for any other game that we want.

Spin spin:

"Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy."
-Psalms 126:5-

Another great time of fellowship and just to enjoy during the winter break. Although there are work such as research and study pending to be done, but I pray that this little time of rest can really prepare us for a longer journey, Amen.
