HK 2012 with Ah Yee Day 3 - SML!

Our first breakfast together!



the singapore team!

i made it for breakfast! and thank god i did! the breakfast was scrumptious! 

i did initially tell them that i will most likely give breakfast a miss to get more sleep. so if they see me, they see me, if they don't, they dont. haha

sandeep's french toast!




one of the guy's big breakfast...




eugene's waffles...



leon's bagel...



and my poached egg with corn beef...



just look at that....



the breakfast is good!

and Leon just did a fish when i got him to take pics of his bagel...





some fun pics during the training....














and from seeing Yun Ki around in the office but never really talked, Yun Ki became very popular with us...



and over the next few days, Yun Ki proved to be a really really nice guy. he takes care of the rest and hes funny as well. He even told me how to pronounce my name in korean. i like the sound of it! very nice!

and can u guess why he is so popular?



he offers us wifi!!



haha.. coz he bought the hk data card! hahahaha..

and he's so sweet! even when he goes for smoke break, he would leave his fone with me so i can stay connected! haha

after training, we arranged to go for dinner together. I brought them over to SML at Causeway Bay!

Shop 1105, 11/F, Food Forum, Times Square, 1 Matheson Street, Causeway Bay























drinks! i had a moscato...




we shared most of the dishes. they generally liked this recommendation and the SML concept. you basically can order either Small, Medium or Large sizes of a particular item. works damn well for people like me who loves variety.

beef carpaccio...



this is great! thinnly sliced beef... with good amount of cheese and rockets. awesome!

prawns with caesar salad...




seafood paella...



philip loved it. he said its his favourite amongst the other dishes.

pork belly...



looks better than it tastes. the skin is not crispy enough and meat is a little tough.





garlic prawns...



also pretty good. favourite of terence and eugene.

some prawn toast thingy...





SUPER GOOD VONGOLE!!



big clams with very tasty pasta! the vongole taste is soooo good!

foie gras...



u just cant go wrong with foie gras. the bread below is forgettable but the foie gras is good!

becky and terence shared a bbq platter that looks orgasmic to even just look at it...




its got ribs, steak, drumstick, etc...



mushroom and truffle rissotto..





oxtail rissotto...



the oxtail one is nicer than the mushroom one.

philip, leon and myself being steak lovers, went for the steak!



it was MMmmmm.. yummy! leon's favourite!

becky's cute little mango meringue...




and leon's apple crumble which was soooo good!




popping my head over while leon cam whores!





leon is very funny! its a joy having him around for this trip.

the smokers smoking outside....



den later asking me why i didnt tell them there were such nice seats and scenery out here. its cos they didnt click on the links of the entries i sent them! haha










but agreed! SML has a beautiful view!



after dinner, becky, terence and leon proceeded to find a place for their daily alcohol regime.

ah yee said there is a popular 鱼蛋 and 车仔面 place around so we went over to search for it.

and we bumped into a cute katsu!















we found the 新记 that ah yee mentioned...

銅鑼灣登龍街49號地下B舖 
電話 : 2573 5438




apparently, ah yee said they are popular for their 车仔面. i was quite excited, i saw pig blood. so long never eat already!!



i asked the rest if they want to just share one. as we seated, the stupid woman started shouting at us rudely to say to dine in, minimum spending per person is HKD$28.

so fine, i told her i will just order. she gave me an order sheet for me to circle. so i circled the pig blood and the fish balls.. i didnt realise i had to circle the type of noodles, they almost gave me a big bowl of just pig blood. den it was after clarifcations they gave me what i want....



i had no choice but to stand and eat this takeaway outside the shop but the stupid woman did not stop grumbling. she kept niam niam niam in cantonese until i buay tahan, i screamed and shouted back at her!

i was like a 泼妇骂街! i told her if u want to shout further i can shout louder than u! and that i came all the way coz i heard the food is good but her service sucks and i asked her by shouting does it bring her more customers?

she was dumb folded and tried to ahh ahh eeeh eeh say she was just explaining to her boss


SERIOUSLY!  its apparent most tourists will NOT understand what to do, does it hurt to be a little nicer?

one thing is for sure, im never coming back no matter how nice the noodles are!

by the way, the noodles are really nice! its very Q and the soup is damn good! very tasty!

but NO WAY AM I GOING BACK!


i think i shocked eugene and philip .. when i started shouting back at the cantonese server. hahahaha
