The Boy and I decided to take advantage of my lovely long lunch break and headed to Villa Langka for an hour's holiday. A sneaky swim and drinks by the pool anyone?
These avocado and prawn fresh spring rolls were as fresh and delicious as they look.
We also grabbed a passionfruit pannacotta for dessert. After all, we were on a vacation (of sorts)!
It was good, but not quite as good as the one at Aria D'Italia.
After our swim and lunch, I flaked out on the sun bed for a while.
It was glorious. The only problem was at 1.30, when I had to head back to the real world and felt insanely jealous of all the other people who really were on holiday and could relax on those sunloungers for the rest of the afternoon. Oh, and the fact that there was nowhere for me to wash my hair, so I had to head back to the office smelling of chlorine.
Anyway, I still think it's just about the best thing you can do with a lunch break. I just might have to take little lunchtime vacations on a regular basis.

Non-guests are only allowed to use the pool at Villa Langka during the week and you must spend $5 on food, which is not difficult. We grabbed some fresh spring rolls and a club sandwich.
