I wasn't
really interested in watching the
Dragon Boat Races but since I have
nothing better to do I decided to come
along.
Kate's
really into regattas and other similar
events. I think she used to be in a rowing
team back in high school. Plus it's rare for
both of us to have a Sunday off from work
being in Hospitality so we thought we'd do
something worthwhile.
We
decided to have lunch at
Thai Foon where we can actually eat and
watch the races at the same time. She could
carry on checking out the guys in the races
while I enjoy a plateful of Saffron Rice and
Chicken Curry. Hehehe!
I
have to say, the food was quite good. They
were a bit more expensive than most Thai
restaurants though, but we're in Darling
Harbour so it doesn't surprise me. However
there's an issue with their service. It's
not the staff's fault. I think they were
quite good given the circumstance that they
were in. The problem was that whoever wrote
the roster didn't put enough people on. With
the Dragon Boat Races and being a really
nice day it was very busy and three people
working the floor isn't enough. We had to
wait for 10 minutes before someone took our
order.
After
lunch we had coffee and cakes. I recalled
Kat Mayo's recent
suggestion... which was a dessert called
Mortal Sin. Even though I pretty much know
what it's made of I never once had it. So
today I thought I'd give it a try. Then I
found out for myself why it is called as
such. Hehehe! It was so rich and creamy that
I could almost feel it seeping into my
waist. I felt so guilty! Hahaha! :P
