look at e treats e A1s got for helping out at e conference!
straits kitchen
when i was told tat 'dinner is provided', i din expect tat e dinner wld be @ e expensive straits kitchen!
it's a pretty posh buffet restaurant with nice decor, serves realli local food like char kway teow, fried rice, indian curry, etc.
n u can see e chefs cooking, machiam like aquarium lidat. i conclude tat these chefs are e ones who earn big big bucks, cuz it costs like $35+++/pax to eat there.
food!
e popiah is damn nice! watermelon juice is v watermelony! muah chee is v tender! nonya kueh is delicious!
tandoori chicken is gd too! zhongda ate so much tandoori chicken there, cuz he took too many n we forced him to finish. LoL~
actually we missed out on alotta e premium dishes cuz we were there too early. by e time those dishes were ready, we were too full. buddha jump over e wall, chilli crab, codfish.. haiz~
e nx day, we were rewarded with straits kitchen bfast for reporting to work at 6am..
so enticing! dim sum, pancakes, yoghurt, pastries, cereals, salad! there's even a scrambled egg man who will scramble ur choice of eggs! how cool is tat!!~
service there was realli gd, veri polite n fast. i so hate myself for missing out e pancakes tho, din realised there was pancakes. -_-
lunch buffets n tea breaks by grand hyatt
they are realli gd, esp e sweet whatnots! not e ordinary kinda catered food lorz, tho e photos dont turn out as appetising as they realli are.
e mushrooms were sooo fantastic, i went for 2nd helping even tho i was alr stuffed. how can gen hate mushrooms??? gosh~
n the desserts... OMG~~ damnnnnnnnnnn nice!~ very mango-ish mango cake, super delicious bread pudding, ultra chocolatey choc cake, fabulous chicken sandwich, etc etc~ *droolz*
dinner @ chijmes
posh dinner, $75+++/pax. A1 helpers get to eat too cuz there were many empty tables. hohoho~
can u believe tat all these were fully sponsored by e company for e partners?? i juz love my company's extravagant culture! muahahaha~
but seriously, e food there aint worth e exorbitant price. ambience was perfect tho, perfect chapel for a romantic little wedding.
rem in sec sch we had etiquette classes where e trainer will teach us how/when to use e plethora of utensils?
tat was e 1st time i realli saw tat infamous plethora of utensils. but oh well, nobody realli cared which is e correct one to use. chey~
e bread was yummy n soft, best dish for tat nite. and e waiters kept offering us more bread, bcuz...
e servings were so small! typical italian dishes, oni enough to fill e gaps betw my teeth.
tats e goose liver + crab salad appetiser, followed by tis mushroom soup which looked alot like puke. not nice.
it's oni a 5-course dinner, n e intervals betw e courses were like 30mins. by e time e nx dish came, e previous dish was alr digested, esp since e serving is so small.
main course: Leg of black-peppered chicken on a bed of Saute Mushroom, Asparagus accompanied by Crispy Onion, Laced with Aged Balsamic and Basil Sauce
dessert: Trio Cassata with Candy Cherries and Chocolate Chip
sounds cool? it's nth great lorz, juz chicken chop and neopolitan ice cream. grand hyatt was wayyyy better!
total cost of meals @ straits kitchen & chijmes:
( $35*2 + $75 ) * 1.16 = $168.20
plus e buffet lunches & tea breaks by grand hyatt, i definitely ate food tat cost >$200 in total for e conference days! HOHOHOHO~
awwwww, im craving for food @ grand hyatt alr!
