FOOD MANIAC REVENGE



My office mate told me that she planned to go to this mamak restaurant during breakfasting today since we were totally upset with the event yesterday. We kept talking about it till the idea of eating out came up.

We planned to go to the other hotel, but at the end we choose to eat at The Grill, Tiara. My friend booked a table for 6 adults and 3 children. This was my friend’s family trip actually but with my thick face (Muka tebal in Malay) I insisted to come. He he… As for us here in Victoria, this was the best place for buka puasa event. The food ranged from western, Chinese, Malay, Thailand etc. They even served sushi and lucky for my friend whom always dying for it. As usual, I am a die hard fan of dessert especially cakes!

Oh I could not resist!

The place is currently under construction but the view is still beautiful as always. They developed the place nicely. Only the distance was a bit isolated from town area. If I was not mistaken, it took less than 3 minutes to reach there by car. I filled my first plate with desserts, more cakes and puddings. My second plate was filled with delicious chicken rice, garlic prawn, squids etc etc etc etc. But since her brothers were also there, I did not want to shock them to discover a food maniac like me ever existed here in LA.. Ha ha ha..

I believe this will be the most remembered event this year and.. tell you whatt.. we already make plan to repeat the night next week ;)

“I THINK THE FOOD IS INSUFFICIENT”


My company held a majlis berbuka puasa for all staffs today at one of this hotel but the program turned “sour” because of poor event management, by that hotel. Can you imagine, they only serve two types of cold drinks which is a cordial and plain water, and, the water was not enough for everybody's thirst. Hello! This was fasting month, how do you expect people to drink one or two glasses only?

Not to mention about the insufficient foods.. daa.. buffet basis ok. We ordered for 70 persons, I presumed only 75% of the guests attended the event. The management told us they added extra packs for seven or eight peoples. Call this extra?

How could 4 stars rating hotel allowed this kind of embarrassment to happen? We even overheard the manager talking about “I THINK THE FOOD IS NOT ENOUGH”. Hello! Check again ok. Of course!

And the praying room, they did not even switch on the lamp at the area. It was on the 2nd floor, very dark and isolated connecting with the conference room area. Scary okey!

NO PROOF BULLET

I attended Job Hazard Analysis review on working at height and the procedure of heavy lifting. Today, I played smart by dragging my most important konco to the event so that I will have two brave men who will stand for me as backup to shield me from any 'unnecessary bullets'. We heeee..

Day 4 Of Puasa


4th day of fasting.. .

I attended the Job Hazard Analysis aka JHA review on hot work today.. Since my boss was unable to attend, I have to go alone. I thought the review will be as simple as before but today was a bit different due to presence of their project manager. Well, boss maa..

I did not have any backup because I did not “drag “my koncos. Actually I “abandoned” this project for more than one month. I just put basic things about hot work hazards and job steps but I did not fully aware of the current condition at the work place. Kantoi me.. Luckily my safety officer a.k.a. my site supervisor now (unofficial rise) came in after 20 minutes later ;D
