:: Its a period of celebrations ::

Last week passes so fast lor.. busy with meeting up with frenz for my bday, spring clean, lect everyday(mornin lect everyday!), worked for 2 days, attended 3 wedding dinners, make deliveries for the bags ppl order... every single day were fully utilised.. shack like hell lor.. physically ok.. but mentally.. bery de exhausted...

Took the time to finally download all the pics taken lately. Than i realised i've actually taken too little photos durin the wedding dinners. Coz too tired? But one thing also coz on the weddings they have pro photographers. So i left it to the pros to take most of the pics. Can 'steal' the photos when the newly weds send to me. Hehehe..

(Updated on 02/08) 29th Jan: Bday celebration with bestest buddies grp 1
Celebrated my bday with the newly wed Mrs Sng & the rest of the gals i attended her wedding with. Dine at Breeks @ MS. I always wanted to try Breeks! The food was delicious. (i sorta forget to take pics, again. Forgetfulness is getting worse. Hahaha...) The babes got me a yummy mango cake, topped with a cheery bday song sang by the Breeks staff:




Well the cake turn out to be the 1st & only bday cake i have tis yr. Family decided i've enuf of cakes so parents only treat me to a bday dinner. So end up, i still didnt get a mix fruit cake for my bday. Haiz was kinda looking forward to my fav prima deli cake... -_-'''

Aged again.. shucks i cant believe i'm reaching THE THREE soon...



27th Jan: Mr & Mrs Sng Wedding
Tis is the 2nd wedding i've attended on my own! Its also my 1st time dining at Novotel Hotel. The ambience there is reali romantic & high class. The ballroom is located at 6th floor, way at the corner. So onli those invited to attend the wedding will walk thru the area. Reali very nice! Its like having a private banquet w/o outside disturbance. Its also very cool tat the cocktail area is outside the ballroom, beside the reception area. Got tis high class feel...


[The wedding venue.. 1st time @ Novotel Hotel!]

[The reception area. Has a very romantic feel]

[The cocktail area... ambience is good!]

[Slide show! The newly wed's 'historical' photos & wedding photos]

[Ooo.. THE FOOD menu...]

[Wedding Cake.. Lovely! But its fake.. hahaha]

[Babes I attended the wed with]

[The Pretty Bride! 1st time i c her so pretty! Haha...]

[The newly wed, Mr & Mrs Sng! Congratulations!]



Most unforgetable thing: Serving of the 1st dish, the cold plate.
The restaurant got the waiters & waitresses to dance into the ballroom. Reali very cute! All of us had a big laugh coz its very comical to c them hold the dish & dance along with the music. So creative!


Most dissatisfied thing: Lousy service by the waiters & waitresses
I would prefer the refills of the drink to be done promptly, & i can find a waiter or waitress to ask for refills even when they wont do it on their own.

I get unhapi when dishes are served too slow but clearing of the unfinished plates are fast. The weirdest thing tat happened was when duno which waiter, cleared my friens' plates (yes 2 ppl & not jus 1), together with the untouched chicken on their plate, while we were cheers-ing to the newly weds. I was lucky to 'escape' the 'misfortunate' coz i ate fast enuf to clear my chicken be4 the cheers-ing. Haha. But still.. i tink its basic manners to ask if the guest still wan the food be4 clearing their plates? Or rather, its common sense to not clear the guest's plate when u c tat their food is untouched.

Than twice the waiter dropped the dirty plates on the floor while clearing the table. But lucky non of the guest kena hit by the fallen plates, else it will be disastrous.

Basically i tink they r seriously are shorthanded -_-'''


Most fav dish: Roast Crispy Chicken, Ee-Fu noodles & Cream of Mango
Chicken... I tink its the dish i ate most. Abt 2 to 3 pieces i tink. The other guests sitting at my table seems pai se to take the food so i helped myself instead. Haha... Well i like the way the chicken is cooked. Roasted till crispy but not burnt. Than its topped with super delicious deep-fried garlic, shallot & chilli. Superb! At 1st bite, i almost thought i'm eating the roasted verison of KFC, tat's not oily. Hahaha...

Noodles... Its delicious! Kinda sad the waiter onli serve very little on my plate & its weird tat he left a super big remaining portion. We havent even eat 2nd serving he took the plate away! Awwww..... why waste good food?!

Dessert... The taste was perfect. The cream base was not too sweet, the mango was not sour, the pomelo was slightly bitter but i tink is meant to be as such. Haiz wanted to eat 2nd bowl but my frienz wana leave. Shucks...


Most dislike dishes: Shark's fin & Garoupa
Shark fin soup.... hmmm... i tink i'm drinking water.. i guess with the No-Killing of sharks for shark-fin campaign going on world-wide lately, the restuarant has decided to 'remove' the sharks-fin frm the soup, together with the rest of the ingrediants... If i ever get married, i tink i will omit out sharks-fin soup & replace it with another soup. At least confirm wont encounter sharks-fin soup with no sharks-fin...

The Garoupa... hmmm.. we all agreed its, uncooked... barely could tear the meat away frm the bone. I tink the chef is afraid we will get hungry frm the long waiting...


Verdict of the whole banquet:
The ambience was really good but the banquet was slightly of a disappointment due to a few bad pts of the food & service. I'll prefer not to waste food & i'll be feeling full by the end of the banquet. I tink if the last 2 dishes, the noodles & dessert, i could eat another serving or two, i will feel full. Hahaha... Haiz good food wasted down the drain..
