Night Out in Northbridge
Posted August 22nd, 2009 in Perth WAMy fiance and I went to Northbridge last night. It was just because 1: we wanted to have time away from his parents (:p), 2: my fiance’s friend and his girlfriend flew from Singapore/Malaysia 2 days ago and staying in Perth for 5 days, so maybe we could catch up with them. Though we weren’t so hungry we were just wondering around to find a place where we can sit down and call the friends what they’re doing. As we enter the centre of Northbridge I noticed there are lots of racing-type cars and many people were gathering around them. …wow what’s going on? :p
My fiance told me that maybe they just finish a race somewhere and were having dinner. The road was closed and these cars were parked on James St.
Then we proceeded to find a place to sit down! We didn’t feel like eating “proper dinner food”, so we decided to munch on a kebab.
We went to Alto’s Kebab House on 39 Lake St. I had a chicken kebab with sour cream and sweet chili sauce. It’s nice that you can choose as many kinds of sauces as you want. ( I only got 2 sauces anyway though)
The bread (pitta?) was not that thin but not too thick, and kinda chewy. I remember I had a kebab in somewhere Margaret River and the bread was like 1.5 cm thick, and I didn’t like it :p I liked this chewy texture on Alto’s bread, but I also don’t mind if it was little thinner and crispy texture. 
In the end we found out that friends were watching movie at Garden City, so we just headed to il gelato and I had a scoop of chocolate cinnamon - flavor of the month. My fiance had a scoop of pistachio at Gelare.
While we were eating dessert, all the racers started to drive away. .. with a extreme noise. :p That recalled a memory of a Tokyo trip when I was 15. It was a school trip to Tokyo Disneyland and the surrounding area, and we were staying at Tokyo Bay hotel. That night, as it was almost 1 am and I was so tired after a whole day at Tokyo Disneyland, I was in the bed about to sleep. Then, suddenly I heard a huge noise thru the window. A noise of cars or motorbikes! Some people must had been enjoying their night race or something… but it was toooo noisy! (>0<) I couldn’t sleep. After a while the noise stopped, (I think someone called polices maybe) but I was really pissed that night.. Watching car race is fun! but not when you want to sleep ..
