their huge chairs... when i stood up it was still about 4ft taller than me...
SHIRLEY TEMPLE!!!
hey hey... yesterday was fun... after school, i made my way down to the esplanade to have dinner with my parents and some of his subordinates... and since this dinner is considered a business dinner, well lets just say its paid by the company which meant NO HOLDS BARRED.... WOOOT.... we ate at My "Humble" House curious why i inverted coma Humble? well lets just say the only thing that is humble about the place is their name... if you guys dont know what restaurant it is, it is a fine dining restaurant serving modern chinese cuisine... not too bad...
oh and you wanna know what i wore into the restaurant? i have this nice white linen shirt that i tailored in vietnam... so that was ok... but i wore berms in... BErMS!!! INTO A FINE DINING RESTAURANT?! ya i did... and guess who's great idea it was... MY DAD's... haha.... nearly couldnt even make it into the restaurant.... after a moment of persuading, i managed to squeeze my way through....
well we then decided to try out the house specials... hey i mean after all dinner is free right? so why not... started off with two prawns... both deep fried, one coated in wasabi sauce the other... erm well i cant remember but it tasted good... decided to order a mocktail, a shirley temple really nice... then came my second appetizer... foir gras... beautifully pan fried crisp on the outside and soft and moist on the inside... beautiful... it actually melted in my mouth faster than ice cream... beautiful... after which came the third appetizer, coconut seafood soup... really nice... they double boiled shirmps, dried & fresh scallops and alot of other goodies... very tasty and nice...
after a little rest, our main course of tenderloin pan fried beef, chicken with yunan ham, chawanmushi with foir gras, scallops pan fried with asparagus.... oh they were all beautiful... well the food and ambience was all great... but now lets analyse the service staff...
well i must say, their uniforms are A1... nicest uniforms i have ever seen anywhere.. very modern yet very chinese... very nice.... however i felt that their service standards were lacking for a fine dining restaurant... the assistant manager was the one serving us and i felt he was too casual and lecked finesse... he used singlish and erm i dont know he didnt seem suave in the way he presented himself... the others i dont know they seemed so solemn.. their service wasnt THAT bad... but i mean fine tuning please....
friends always care
