My second ever visit to Da Eros proved to be even more thrilling than the first. We had dinner there once a long time ago, probably when it first opened; I had the pizza and it was really good.

This time around however we went at lunchtime with the girls from the office, our usual month end shindig, and we agreed at the onset that the dieting could go right out the window, we were going all out today and boy did we ever! For once I actually ordered a starter, usually preferring to keep space for dessert. One of the girls had the haloumi and loved it. The rest of us ordered the prawns in creamy garlic sauce, served on crusty bread with… wait for it… real butter, such a treat. It was oh so heavenly! The prawns were perfectly cooked out of the shell and smothered with the tastiest creamiest garlic sauce I have ever had in my life. I could hear the diet police sirens going off already in my head but chose to ignore them for what I deemed was a worthy cause, filling up the big hole left in my tummy over the last few weeks. Still licking our lips from that taste sensation, we could hardly decide what to order for mains, wondering if we could have the prawn starter dish as an entrée as well. We decided that was overkill and so I ordered the fillet steak with pepper sauce and vegetables while the others preferred the seafood platter (pictured here).
