What a weekend it has been. I had 4 ‘celebrations’ over the 3 days which means I did just one thing over the weekend, eat, eat, eat…and eat.
Friday was a farewell lunch for my dear colleague who has been with us for a looooong time, 7-8 years now. It’s always sad to see a colleague go but if he feels it’s for a better future, than I support him fully. Ok, back to food, we went to the Clementi Wood’s Sakura restaurant for a buffet lunch costing $20++ per head. The place have a big parking area and the restaurant is big too, where the place we park is consider as ground level, the restaurant is than located at B1 and B2.
Our seats are at B2, and there is no lift:( so we gonna walk all the way down. The spread is across B1 and B2 so you will have to go up and down for the different type of food. At B1, that is where the Jap food are, with sushi and sashimi. Special highlight is of course my favourite Salmon Sashimi which is pretty fresh and the slice is cut nicely. And they also have this specially imported ‘Magic Shrimp’ from Saudi Arabia that you eat raw. And according to my colleagues who are also eating it for the 1st time (they were apprehensive when I told them it can be eaten raw), they love it! Says it taste really good. Also on B1 are some cook-on-the-spot food like salmon, sambal prawn, chicken chop, etc…plus desser, fruits, cakes, etc. are all located at B1.
B2 has things like dim sum, grill food, cooked food, soup, fried stuff, duck meat, etc…quite a decent spread. Also have various drinks selection and ice-cream. While the food are not top class type, they are pretty decent and most are quite nice to eat. And for the price, I think it is quite reasonable. It will be great if they have escalator or life :p
Saturday we had a gathering for the F1 sector 17.8/18 marshals at Hard Rock Cafe where we are returning our overall at the same time. It’s been a long time since I’ve been there and having already had lunch, I decided to get a sandwich. I ordered Club Sandwich but when it came, it looks kinda strange. It was 2 huge piece of hamburger bread plus what looks like a meat patty. When I ate it, it tasted like tuna and while puzzled, I never thought about it and just chat and eat. When the bill came, than I realise what happened, instead of Club Sandwich, they served me Crab Sandwich. I can’t believe it, and maybe I will give HRC a miss for a while.
Than in the evening, it’s my niece’s birthday celebration and we had pizza, chicken wing, KFC, etc…lots more food go into my stomach. My kids have a fun time playing with the cousins and it was till quite late that we finally went home. I was so tired after the whole think and overslept the next day. In fact, my whole family overslept.
On Sunday night, it was another celebration as it was my mother-in-law’s birthday. We met at Square2 and decided to eat at Zhou’s Kitchen, a Tung Lok Group restaurant. It’s our first time eating there and the food is surprisingly nice. We ordered a set chinese dinner and all of them are quite nice, except for the noodles which they don’t like to eat, it’s ’sheng mian’ which I think is not everyone’s cup of tea. My elder son Denver loves it so much that he ate 1.5 bowl of rice, and I think he over ate a little.
So, the whole weekend is about eating, and I think I’ll stick to hawker and home cook food for a while. Too much of ‘big meal’ in one weekend.
