Couples Date Night..Valentines!!

It was decided that all the couples should go out together for Valentines day! We booked into a lovely little restaurant called The Witches Couldran in Subiaco, near Perth city.
There were 5 couples including me and Kev..Nic and Elliot, Richie and Sarah, Jess and Steven and Emma and Danny. A scouse, Welsh, Leeds mixture!! It was $100 per couple for 3 courses and a 3 hour bar tab of wine and beer! So it was a good deal! I had a lovely meal..I went for the salt and pepper squid for my starter, Lamb and rosemary potatoes for the main and a fruit pavlova for dessert! Kev was a little less adventurous, ordering the soup for starter (what a waste), fish and chips for mains..and he turned his nose up at all the desserts on offer!
There was a mix up with the numbers and the restaurant had only booked us in for 8 people..so we had to move from our original seats into the corner on our own, in a little booth..which worked out well because we were quite loud. It was like our own individual part of the restaurant! Now that I think back..there probably wasnt a mix up and they just moved us there purposely..keep the rif raf away from the other diners!! haha
We had an American waitress...like us she was on a working holiday visa..she had just got the job at the restaurant. When she brought over our wines..5 large glasses..she struggled and dropped the tray..all the glasses smashed, and the wine spilt all over Jess...it was sly on the poor American! She was mortified..Jess was lovely about it...we all helped clean it up and told her not to worry..we left her a good tip cos we felt so bad for her!
After the meal we went to the lima bar...we had a good little dance!! It wasn't a late one..got home about 1am I think! Had a smashing time and will definitely go back again soon!! xxx
