Bday and drink PANNA.....

......huum one more year older..........decided to spend the afternoon sleeping......and in the evening went to Raj with Prajit, Balu where Dips and Surabhi joined us.Dips got the cake (...unexpectedly... :)..) with all candle stuff so celebrated cake cutting and blowing off the candles in the restaurant itself.
But the limelight of the evening was the drink PANNA. Balu and Prajit had ordered the drink earlier after lot of discussion of what to drink. Somehow the drink never arrived first along with starters ....., nevertheless gungho about tasting this new thing under Juice menu they again ordered Panna...and this time Dips and Surabhi also happily gaves a thumbs up to same drink. Nobody checked with the waitress first as exactly what it was. The assumption was the drink was panah--a drink made out of raw mangoes and considered to keep the body cool....famous in northern India . I didnt feel like taking any and was contended with plain water. Finally after a wait the drink arrived and every one was curious as didnt look as per expectation...... ..everyone looked at each others face , studied more the contents on the packaged bottle, tasted it.........it turned out to be mineral water from the Hills of Tuscany in Italy..... :)) ....all bursted out with laughter after realizing the mistake.....looking again at the Juices Menu revealed that even Mineral Water was also mentioned in the same...just beneath PANNA......though it didnt caught anyones attention while ordering.... Nevertheless.....all dranked Panna with relishment and juice style :))))).....
Joked and laughed around for some time after dinner......with Balu finishing with PANNA as desert item....kept it till the last :))
