Lunch at Jaan

Just let the pictures do the talking.











Generally ok but I won't spend so much for a meal again.

Colony at Ritz Carlton

I have a love hate relationship with buffets. I love to see so much food and so many choice. I hate myself for eating so much after the buffet.

Anyway, I didn't take many pictures. We were seated at a cozy corner.


There were quite a mixed fare. They had the usual sashimi and seafood and crab legs. I took some crab legs and went back to my seat, the waitress immediately gave me a bowl of lemon water to wash my hands and a pair of crab scissors. Service is superb.

They had a chinese corner, with laksa with lobster ball and wanton mee and some chinese food. I didn't touch the indian corner, then it was the western corner

 The chicken rice was one of the better ones. Like seriously? Chicken rice? Yes, chicken rice. It's better than those foodcourt chicken rice. And they had a fresh fruit juice corner. A really nice touch coz usually you need to pay extra for fresh juice.

Then the desserts.


There's also fresh crepes, waffles and ice cream.

My stomach exploded after the meal and we had difficulty walking around. Overall, one of the better buffets I had. Wide variety, amazing service, delicious food, fresh juices for around $61 nett per pax after 10% discount. Pretty worth it. Just don't be late for the buffet.

Today

It's such a weird day today.

The touchscreen on my phone has been cranky since yesterday night so I wasn't able to use my phone much in the morning.

Then I discovered something big happened and sent the first email blast to the entire team in SG and UK.

Then I had latte macchiato while attending training in the meeting room.

In the afternoon they wanted to go Bugis for lunch but I didn't want to follow so I bought salad and got a free sushi at the roadshow. I thought they were joking about the Bugis,

After getting frustrated with my phone, I took out the glass screen protector that was there for 1 year plus, and it became better. I can use my phone occasionally but it's still cranky.

UK office opened with some people getting frantic about the mail I sent out in the morning.

I sent out a second email blast and got a reply from my global head. "Good mail" it said. He almost never responds to unnecessary emails.

Still trying to organise ourselves from my first mail, I went back at 6pm.

On the way back, I saw some bitch that I didn't want to see. She saw me and stared for a second before turning to the other side. Ya go on and pretend we don't know each other. Fitch.

Then I found out that my bottles of chicken essence just expired for 10 days in my cupboard.

WEIRD.

One year later

Last weekend was my grandma's first death anniversary.

Well it didn't feel like it was one year ago, definitely. Everything was so fast for the past year. I still miss her sometimes.

So everyone went for a short session on Saturday 5pm, and we needed to stay overnight for that but I though the people playing mahjong were going to do that so I didn't. In the end there were only a few who stayed overnight.

Sunday morning was the full thing and we burnt a lot of things for her.


It was nice, everybody getting together and catching up on rare occasions, all the babies and adults. I guess only events like these brings people together.

Last friday night

It was awkward and so weird.

The maze is so dark, the people are so weird and the place is not exactly clean.

I felt super out of place.
