Elizabeth, 11 wrote this poem on her birthday celebration at Portofino
Krimo's Candlelit Dinners...
A few nights ago, we had two birthday parties at Portofino. One was a 13th and the other 16th. The thirteen year-olds were accompanied by a couple of parents. The sixteen-year olds were solo. Twelve of them but they all behaved impeccably.
When it came to lighting the candles on the birthday cakes, both sets of girls sang Happy Birthday to each other.
Both cakes lit up the whole restaurant and the singalong created a great atmosphere.
I took this photo on my iphone.
A busy place on a Wednesday night made even "buzzier"!

Happy Leap Year...
I was born a few years ago today! 28th February!
Some may think that if I had been a little bit reluctant to come out of my mother's tummy for another twenty four hours, I would by now be looking forward to my teenage years...
But fortunately, I was born in 1953 and it wasn't a leap year.
Madjid, Krimo's chef was also born on the same day, but a year earlier...
So Happy 56th, Madj!
I began thinking about writing this post about three weeks ago, after I caught sight of a television advert about Leap Year weekend breaks...
The power of advertising!
Might as well make the most of it, after all the next one will be 2012! Great leap of faith for the Olympics!
Well, for us in catering, it will certainly be a busy weekend and not with young ladies proposing but with deserving mothers being treated out for Mother's Day Lunch!
Sorry, Krimo's is already fully booked but we have a couple tables left at Portofino and Casa del Mar!
