Yi Ni Mo Ni Ma Ni Mo for dinner

Today is another day of meetings. Ended at 5pm. Thereafter, had a chance to check out a retail mall in Brazil. haha, din stay long, just took a very quick look. But well, yes, managed to get stuff- what else? Havaianas! din buy a lot just bought one pair for myself. Got Dar another pair instead cos he din think Havaianas are comfortable. Saw this pair of Speedos, pretty pretty!

And guess what? I saw this Havaianas baby slippers. Bought 2 pairs. No prizes for guessing who I will give them to! Aren't they just lovely?

Went for dinner with boss and this time we decided to venture to a place further from the hotel on recommendation by another colleague based here. Da Rua, a pub cum restaurant place abt 2 min walk from our hotel. And guess what, cos it was just 2 of us who don't speak Portuguese and the waiter don't speak English, we just vaguely figured out the menu and anyhow ordered 3 appeitizers for dinner. Drinks were easy as the names were recognisable like Margarita etc.

It was not too cold today, there was actually SUN! Cool! it's like someone up there knows that I din bring enuf clothings and I got sun today! So it was bearable! Thank goodness!

Tmw shall be a hectic day, with many meetings which will end at 6pm and then we need to rush to take an internal flight to Brasilia at 7.45pm. Hope we make it. Will be visiting Embraer again tmw - the 2nd largest aircraft producer in the world next to Boeing. And from tmw onwards, it will be more hectic and non-stop meetings and travelling till Friday night when we will be taking the midnight flight back home!

Mix n Match Pasta which u get to choose up to 8 ingredients to cook your pasta. Choose ur pasta and sauce too! Costs abt BRL16.50.

This is the shopping centre which we ate at the food court - the Market Place


Da Rua for dinner just 2 min from the hotel I am staying. But the menu is all in Portuguese! Just had to anyhow order the food...


Mandioca Frita - which we thought to be some fries but it was more like tapioca fries...

This one is quite easy - mini hamburguinho com molha de cheddar e au poivre
Margaritas which i figured is with lime cos got the word "limau"
