Major Pig-Out!


Today is a day of major pig out. Lunch was hosted by vendors for a project appreciation / thank you lunch at Nobel House. Company was great as it was with my very fun group of now ex-users. Great to have a chance to catch up with them and just share many laughs over a good meal. Meal was sinful and we all felt extremely stuffed. One interesting dish was the beetroot (+pineapple+lime+dunno what juice) that was served in testtubes and chilled over a big bowl of crushed ice. Everyone was wowed by the presentation of this dish but was at the same time a little hesitant to try. This was supposed to be an appetiser but was served as the third dish. While we wondered out loud why it wasn't served first, the wait staff explained that some of us might not be able to stomach the acidity if we were to take it on an empty stomach. Secondly, the drink would aid in cleansing the system of the oily food that we had just imbibed.

A very last minute dinner was arranged with friend when we both thought we should not need to work late tonight. He brought me to the Brotzeit German Beer Bar & Restaurant in Vivocity as he wanted to have pork knuckles *faint*. The place was quite alright, noisy but still ok to hold a decent convo without having to hurt our lungs. Again stuffed ourselves with loads of sinful food *shake head* and we each had a 1L beer !!!!!! It was like this humungous mug filled to the brim with dark beer. OMG. I was only 1/5 into it and I felt giddy :P So much for drinking. And I think I have trained him sufficiently that now he could stomach dessert after a heavy meal :P
