a Good friday with one Glitch

Let's talk about the good things 1st.

We went for a buffet lunch at Ellenborough Market Cafe, courtesy of the Feed at Raffles Gourmet card. I cannot remember the last time I was there. Maybe 7 or 8 years ago? I actually went without any expectations of the food as the reviews were not that fantastic at hungrygowhere.com. I always read up on the place that I am going to eat at just to be in the know of what to expect. The food was okay in my opinion, but maybe that's because I've already lowered my expectations. The main flaw is the selection is not very good, somehow the food is not warmly heated up although it is! And they only have 3 selections in the Japanese section; salmon sashimi which is not that cold, some marinated sea bass which is so so tasting, and some sushi rolls. Their dessert is not bad though; there is their ever famous durian pengat, and their ah ballings are quite good.



After lunch, we went for walk walk at Central Mall. Hmm, nothing much there, except if you want to eat there. They have quite a number of eateries there, and also Sun with Moon! Heh.

Oh, the glitch of the day is Kae's sofa, or the lack of it. We went to Marina Square to collect the sofa which was delivered from the warehouse. The bottom of one cushion has an opening, as a tear at the edge. So, we've decided that we want another piece, which means we got to wait. Till next tuesday. Was really hoping to get it today as Kae's 15 months old present. But for the amount we paid, I didn't want to settle for a less than perfect sofa. It is really a matter of principle. We should get exactly what we pay for. Why settle?

All in all, it was a good friday. A tiring friday.
