The cut-throat world of tapas

we all noe that the local F&B scene in kinda exciting, which is good for us.

bad thing is, good food doesnt mean sustainability.

many good eat holes r closed down due to various reasons, the major one will b the rental.

restaurants and food stalls all alike.

so for now, juz go indulge in ur fav type of makan while it is still there. u will nv noe when it will really disappear.

 

as for the recent trend, it seems like tapas is the way to go.

we hav been wanting to try out this place for a long time, n we r glad that we've finally did it.

" how come all alcohol one?"

 we had a farewell lunch for one of our colleague in this famous steak house. i muz say i am guilty to suggest this plc.

 v posh setting

 gossiping b4 the food came

 flat bread was ok.

 served w oil poached garlic. yumz.

 pattern oni. no alcohol during lunch pls.

 my entree of rainbow trout. ok lor.

 baby's entree fared better w grilled romain lettuce w artichoke

 another entree of spinach w walnut.

 my huge cut of hanger steak. mad.

 9oz wagyu. super big.

 baby's "petite" steak.

 baby gave up eating the steak halfway. there were 16 of us, n oni 4 of us finished our meat. can u imagine????? too much meat!!!!

n truth to b told, it doesnt really justify for the amt of $$$ paid for them. sigh. so disappointed!!!!

 dessert was ok. i muz tell u that most of us didnt even have dinner that day. we were this sick n full. so bad.

bye bye girl. all the best to u.

 



the lack of interest in meat lasted for abt 2 weeks.

i am still quite sick of beef now.

a little seafood n pork is ok though.

 makan session w family at imperial for mother's day. too busy eating, forgot to take pix!!!! overall food was good. i am a fan.

 went to collect tix for premier screening for class of 92. the hot weather nearly killed us. decided to juz sit down at of fav tcc for tea.

 their high tea set nv fail to impress. nachos r awesome!

 had this for dinner over the long weekend a v nice (but small pc) pork chop

 can u believe it? someone's having pancakes for dinner.

 pardon us for the ugly green outfit, company's event at one of the charity site. preparing food for the needy. i muz say my hair spray is doing its job. hairdo still stands after a long day's work in the central kitchen!

prepared paella for baby yesterday. cant c the rice cos its buried under the mountain of seafood. ya, bought too much seafood. will watch out nxt time.

 

to date, i am still staying aways from MEAT!!! (juz had vegetarian bee hoon for my lunch. wat do u think?)
