we went to boat quay and headed straight to the restaurant; wanting to fully utilize the vouchers... but when we got there, it was not what we had thought it would be... not family friendly and obviously not child friendly! hence we de-tour and walk around that area and finally decided to go for porridge king (大碗粥).
mon cherie in the high chair looking all grown up... (notice her hand... it's heading towards mommy's menu yet again)
mon cherie 'kena' scolded for making a din again... and see her reaction!
anyway, it was a rather disappointing dinner as the porridge was a little too watery and the dou miao (豆苗) was a little overly fried; hard to swallow actually.
and when the bill came... wah piang... it was super expensive! for that same amount, mommy can whip up a feast of porridge with peking duck and scallop w kai lan as side dish! and you can have a dozen cans of the braised peanuts too! but since it was such a 'hasty' decision, we learnt our lesson... and plus the fact that business was bad; so we're also helping the economy a little; despite quite unwillingly. (and the fact that the boss gave us complimentary desserts at the end of our meals...)
as for ComEx, well... by the time we finished dinner, it was a little too late to go over Suntec. And since there's bound to be yet another IT exhibition in the next quarter, daddy can wait till then.
so the next time, we WILL surely plan our outing more efficiently... and ensure we dun bust our budget on porridge! :)
