December 2006- Christmas Decoration at Work and Dinner at Italianies

Didn't get much time to update events at my surrounding. Flashback on December 2006. Remember my last entry about Christmas decoration for this HAPPY occasion. Add in a few pictures on the end result.

The time spent for the whole event to take place, it's worth it as we got first place in the decoration competition among whole organisation.

My cubicle. Look at the snowflakes and mini Christmas trees.

How can i forget Christmas Dinner with my sis and friends. We plan to spend a day at the Curve to catch the countdown at midnight. Still deciding on where we should have our dinner, we passed by Italianies, we took a look at the fix menu in conjunction with Christmas and we finally decided on the 3 course meal available. Here's the 2 choices we have for appetizers

Salmon Salad and Stuffed Mushrooms with Cheese Cream

We really enjoyed our appetizers, the stuffed mushroom is really good. we were suppose to share..but i finished my mushroom because it is too good to share it..lol
*
The salad is just ok, not really taste as good as it looks. Ermm..i remember my sister putting the salmon aside because it was not too fresh and it had bones. Have you ever had fish bone in your Sashimi?
*
Then there is our main course. It really looks good, but not all tasted good. The beef is just mediocre, did not have that 'wow' factor. My cousin ordered the fish with spaghetti, the fish is good, but the spaghetti was too dry and tasteless. My sister ordered this rosemary chicken, it looks good in the picture but it was the worst thing to put in your mouth.
*
Number one-the chicken was tasteless,
Number two-It was too dry,
Number three-Half a chicken??? Who the hell can finish half a chicken?
Number four-The small little bowl in the picture, i suppose it was gravy for the chicken. Taste like water. Number Five-We requested for some gravy, like black pepper or mushroom. Well, They don't have any, because that is only the gravy they prepared that day.
*
We basically have to finish one whole chicken because 2 of them ordered the chicken main course. But we actually returned a whole chicken back to the kitchen. To my surprise, nobody asked why aren't we eating the chicken. How was our meal? Is it ok? What's wrong with the chicken? They just collected the plates with the food untouched. This is the kind of service we are talking about. We don't see the Manager at the Floor, only waiters and waitresses running up and down. I remembered it took them more than half an hour to get my drinks on the table. We practically choked ourselves swallowing the meal, as i said earlier, everything is so dry and tasteless. OK, the appetizers taste good. That's the good thing i can about this meal.



Well, we waited for our dessert. Hopefully it's not a disappointment. It did not disspoint us, the tiramisu and the apple custard taste wonderful. Still the main course spoil the whole lovely evening. Honestly, i never stpped into any Italianies outlet after my Christmas Dinner last year. Not really worth going again, Spent more than RM300 for the meal, but it is not worth the money paid.


Well, we did not let a bad meal ruin our Christmas night together.
