Bad dining experience at Hog's Breath Cafe (Chijmes)

Went there for the first time wif my dear last night on Christmas eve and we took the Christmas eve package dinner. I was totally disappointed with the service hog's breath had given to us.. a very bad impression at our very first visit. First of all, the server didn't even know if we got our food yet. Moreover, the drinks weren't served until we asked for it. After finishing the appetizer, we waited for approx 1 hour plus for the main course to be served!! We were very upset, and the manager said that the kitchen jammed. I was wondering, there were this couple who came after us and they had their dessert already while we were still waiting for our main course! That was absurd! In addition, they also served us the wrong side dish and lastly our dessert that was supposed to be the Mississippi Mud Cake was suddenly changed to Apple crumble. They said the mud cake had been sold out. :s

Yeah, of course that ruined our mood and we lost our appetite alr. The food was average (perhaps it was biased.. due to very lousy service), but the atmosphere and ambiance were great. One thing I noticed missing was the table number. There were no table numbers at all! and perhaps that was the reason why the kitchen jammed......

I don't know whether the other branches' service is as lousy as this or not, but one thing for sure, I will dine at Hog's Breath no more.. that was really2 bad dining experience, and thanks for ruining our Christmas mood... =.=

We then attended the midnite mass at Cathedral of Good Shepherd, we didn't manage to get a seat thou. The mass was great, the ambiance, the choir, everything was great! May this Christmas bring joy and peace to the world :D

Merry Christmas everyone!

Holiday..

Not really a holiday for me.. yeah u know I gotta finish my FYP coz I don't have much time left. Good thing is, I got my "normal" life back, as in everyday I woke up at ard 930 in d morning, having my breakfast, went to lab until 6 o clock in d afternoon, having dinner, went back to hall and enjoying d rest of the nite :P that reminds me of the time when I was doing my internship.. one semester back. Next semester will be my last semester in NTU, happy or sad? Both actually.. all human being have insatiable desire.. I might be happy tat I have no more exams, stack of notes to be read, and lecture videos to be watched, but at d same time, it's kinda sad tat finally this is a goodbye to school life.. and youth life.. I decided to take my master degree after working for at least 2 years (some of the master degree programs required us to have at least 2 years of working exp). Have to sit for GRE too later.. At least 2 years w/o stack of notes, assignments, reports n .. u name it :P isn't tat good :P hahaha.. Working life might be more complicated, challenging, and perhaps interesting XD sounds good huh..

Haven't been invited for an itvw since Barcaps phone interview.. yeah, let's just put it this way, experience is what we get when we don't get what we wanted. Won't be so desperate tat I can't get a job, juz relax.. need not to rush .. GOD will show me which path I should follow.. (perhaps not investment banking as I thought :p) as long as I have a lil' faith.. and of coz some efforts in looking for a job, everything will be juz fine :)

Kind of sleepy now.. a serendipitous weather for sleeping.. -.- k .. juz relaxing myself for now..

im out..
