Very satisfying FIRST meal of the Day
Firstly, some background information on my “First Meal of the Day“…
I had been sleeping and waking up real late the previous weekends. As a result, my first meal of the day was after 7pm- the same time when normal people would be having dinner.
The first two weekends, we chose some horrid restaurants. *phui
And some pizza place had to screw up our orders the third weekend.
“Stop calling us to verify our address! If you don’t know where the place is, you check the directory! Do you have any idea how distracting it is to keep answering calls and repeat the address five times while we were playing mahjong?”
“What do you mean you don’t usually send to Yio Chu Kang? Then you should have told us earlier and not after making us wait for an hour. We didn’t force you to accept our order hor.”
“You think we yao gwee is it? After making me wait for ninety minutes, you think you can shrug your shoulders and give me a miserable 5% discount? So what if you up the discount to 10%? I don’t care if your delivery man is downstairs or Tuas or Changi or Sentosa. I don’t want the pizza anymore.”
A hungry man is an angry man, as Jack and Mandy can testify.
They were present in all three scenarios.
And the angry Cruz Teng, swore never to have the first meal of the day with the two of them from now on.
Hahaha.
After hearing this, Arthover was rather afraid to be associated with the power duo. Thus, he let me decide what to eat on Saturday evening.
I had to choose something safe.
Something that wouldn’t go wrong.
I can’t go on having bad first meals of the day this whole month!!!
Ladies and gentlemen, if you’ve just received your performance bonus (like me), or have had terrible dining experiences this whole month and would like to reverse your fortunes, please visit this place at Chijmes.
And please park your car somewhere else. The charges are exorbitant.
Thumbs up for the succulent prime ribs at Hog’s Breath. The garlic and herb bread was extremely rich. And oh, if they had put less ice in my glass, they wouldn’t have to walk to and fro so many times for my refillable Coke that came at $2 extra.
It was a truly satisfying first meal of the day.
Enough to make me forget that I had lost a fair bit in the World Cup betting; and adequate to erase the trauma I had after getting lost in the west part of the island earlier that day.
The bill for two, including an appetiser, two main courses, and two drinks came up to almost $70.
Not the daily kind of meal lah huh.
