Ikea 6th Birthday Celebration

Hello foodies. Despite another post on Ikea, rest assured I don't work for them and am certainly not sponsored by them. Just excited and glad to be part of their fun activities. Ikea Adelaide turned 6 this year and for their birthday celebration they decided to hold a "Pyjama Party". What a brilliant idea! It was a 4 day party held from Thursday April 19 to Sunday April 22. During this period there were giveaways and free food. Yes, free food, that's how this story made it to this blog. Ikea Adelaide decided to set up four beds in the cafeteria area with vouchers on them. If you got the voucher you can purchase up to $25 worth of food from the cafeteria for free. The catch is, you have to eat in bed! Or on bed. Also, if you wore pyjamas to Ikea in those four days you received a $10 meal voucher. I was a bit embarrassed at first following some discouraging comments and thinking about the low likelihood of many people wearing PJs but I did anyway just for the fun of it. When I arrived at the door, by gosh there were a few in PJs! My mood was lifted and I can now take the "L" on my forehead off. It was fun and so many people were in the spirit. I loved it! (And the free meal).

Rare empty shot - The beds were actually taken, they're just queuing for food

We got the famous Ikea meatballs, Chicken Parmigiana and Rocky Road Chocolate Slice with a couple of drinks. Their Chicken Parmigiana was actually quite nice as the chicken was still moist and the topping was well seasoned. For $7.95 on a Thursday night it's a good feed. The Chocolate Slice was a nice dessert and still moist.

Me in my PJs eating in bed - Chicken Parmigiana $7.95 and Rocky Road Chocolate Slice $3.00

Thanks again Ikea for organizing such fun events. Our lives would be boring without it.
