Drinks and the Mood Hoover

I finally made it to Pig and Khao and thought it was OK. The best things we ate were the chocolate and bacon rice pudding and the pork jowl and watermelon salad - the latter was very good. We didn't have the sisig, so I can't judge what that was like, but based on what we ate, Maharlika is still my favourite Filipino restaurant in town. What was dead good was the bottomless mimosa offer for $15. I had the lychee ones and they were proper yummy.

Right opposite was Prosperity Dumpling, which I've heard a lot about. Four pork and chive dumplings for $1.25. I couldn't say no, as we're never in that part of town, so I force fed the Boy two and I took a couple myself.

Walking home with a three-glass buzz, I felt strangely sad. It feels wrong to be drinking and I would give it all up in a heartbeat to be pregnant again.

Tonight we're going for my much longed-for Alphabet City cocktail bar crawl with Team Momentum. It'll be the first time I tell people in person about my miscarriage. That'll be strange and uncomfortable so I hope I'm not too much of a Mood Hoover.
