Food for Thought

I just came back from Broadcast Asia 2010 and boy am i exhausted! My eyes are going to shut down anytime soon. I'm also blogging in semi-darkness now. Very tempted to just fall back and sleep. But boooo, i've still got work later. =(

Must hurry blog now else my photo will go stale.

A date with BenBen last Sunday!



BenBen wanted to take me to the cafe "Food for Thought" located at Queens Street. He was there with his business associates before and wanted to introduce me to the place.

We took the circle line and alighted at Bras Basah. Queens Street is only a mere 2 mins walk from the circle line!



Queens Street reminded us of some random roads abroad. Very serene and has quirky shops along the road.



And i'm wearing my new jumpsuit from UniQlo! I love da material. Its soft denim and so comfy. So its true UniQlo uses high quality cotton... @.@



And here's "Food for Thought"! Apparently they donate part of their earnings to feed the poor in Africa. (That's how they do marketing hor. Buy people's sympathy.) Win ready lo.

Its a cosy cafe with interesting decorations hanging on the ceiling. It was pretty packed so we had to wait for around 10mins before we got our seats.


Interesting table mats which tells you S$20 can feed an African adult for a month and also no child should starve in a World of happy meals. -_-

And then they ask you if you'd like to pay S$2 for free flow sky juice and they will donate that to charity as well.

Sky juice is free btw.



We ordered a sandwich and a salad only. The sandwich's called some Sze Chuan Beef with Pumpkin and please please dun order it if you happen to go next time.

There's no Sze Chuan taste and the beef is cold and semi-raw and the pumpkin is so dry they almost got stuck in my throat. The achar is colourful and refreshing, but not what i'd like too cuz there's too much onions which made my mouth stink the whole afternoon. The only nice part is the fries. They sprinkled grounded rosemary on the fries which made it interesting to eat. No rosemary taste, they are just pleasing to my eyes.



Please try not to order the Grilled Calamari and Bacon Salad too. They're weird. The grilled calamari tasted fishy and not fresh at all. Bacon is good, i have to admit, but the calamari totally spoiled my taste so it dragged poor bacon down the drain too. Yes, the sotong is sabo king.

But the S$3 diet coke and BenBen's company made my day so i didn't really care how the food tasted by then. =)

After our high tea we decided to visit SAM - Singapore Arts Museum! They're just next door to "Food for Thought".


So interesting, got rabbit on the roof. How did it hop so high?


Haha, but we didn't get to visit in the end. Reason cuz we were told to pay S$10/pax at entrance. After doing some simple calculations i decided its not worth it cuz i'd rather spend S$20 on a bag. In the end i really bought a tote bag... for S$35 at Bugis. Muahahaahhah!

Thank you BenBen for the wonderful weekend! Totally enjoyed it to bits! *MuacKz*
