Communication Lunch @ Manna Korean Restaurant

In order to improve communication between inter-departments, Moi's company decided to arrange monthly lunch outings between 2 different departments every time.
This month, we went to Manna Korean Restaurant.
Honestly speaking, not very yummy leh...

Beef, Pork and Chicken hot plate
Moi never eat cos vegetarian period...but reviews from colleagues not good...
they say meat's soggy soggy one

Seafood hot pot
Ok lor...nothing fantastic

Mochi in tomato sauce
Not too bad, not sour at all.
Plus other dishes like potatoes in sweet sauce, rolled egg etc

Spring onion omelette
Moi loves eggs so this dish was the best :)

Fruits...so miserable hor
and to think that our company have to pay hundreds for this lunch...

Cinnamon tea
Yucks.
Moi remember a couple of years ago where Toi brought Moi to this same place for lunch and 'coerced' Moi to take a sip...eeeee weird weird one the taste...

寄り道Food : Bedok Road

There's this little hawker centre at Bedok Road where they sell mostly Malay food.
The Tauhu Telok is good and so is the Ayam Penyat!
However today, we had Hokkein Mee and Cheng Teng.
Cheng Teng was very clear and nice, very refreshing.

Hokkein Mee has a special taste to it...not bad tho.

Pasta/Pizza Lunch @ Borders Bistro

Moi and Toi had only 50 minutes before our movie starts!

Lucky the restaurant manager rushed the kitchen for our food-vegetarian of cos!:)
