Before I move on any further.. I would like to recommend a good old bak kut teh for everyone's enjoyment.......
The old saying, "Good food are hard to find"
Me: That is why I'm recommending
The sarcastic saying, "If it is not far enough from the city, awesome restaurant owners won't want thar place to be his new restaurant."
Me: Prepare the petrol for good food.
Being the disobedient me as usual...
Without any filter system in my words I said
"Omg.. Why are we eating so far away when we are from CHERAS!
its like 1 hour ride!""How can we enjoy the food when we were stuck for like an hour
in the traffic?""What happen to eat to get full and not addicted!""Pork is not good for our health.. even without swine flu
reason""Come on.. AKU TAK NAK""Bak Kut Teh in CHERAS HAVEN Bankrupt yet! Give them a chance
too!""Desperation for food is not the cure""Dad you are old already... Come we go eat some veggi in
CHERAS lor"
Futile attempt as usual..
One glare from my mom and I will creep quietly into the car with the sit belt over my mouth...
"No harm in trying"
I love that quote.
I'm sure you guys heard of this place... ^^
Its very hard to get there
I give you this
This is the best dish I got to say.. Dry bak kut teh.. CHUN ^^ Smooches for tasting so awesome...
But the embarassing part is about to come.....
You see... I brought my camera to that place to blog about "Why you shouldn't travel so far for Bak Kut Teh" post which I thought was pretty relevent no matter how many times I thought about it
But after eating the food and seeing the satisfaction muka from my family members.. Ive decided to spare the bad review and just go on without it...
But I came to a point where I want their address.. For 'dining' reasons...
Big mistake I got to say
At the same point...
My mom was trying to make fun of me, I think.....
When I asked for a name card from the waitress....
Here is what happened
Mom: She wants to promote your restaurant!
Being a blogger wannabe and all.. Give her ur restaurant name card!Me: Umm I just want the address if it is
alright... A name card would be great...Then.. The ever so friendly waitress replied almost
harshly"Oh-so-nice" waitress: I assure you there is
no need to blog about us knowing we already have a website as stated on our name
card and our restaurant is a well known place which has been featured on
internet and newspaper. But here you go, a name card.
Having said that without a pause, she finished her sentence and went off getting busy....
Me... Who was misunderstood for being naive thinking that restaurant is not well known enough till the point they need a NOBODY like me to blog about them.. It must have appeared ridiculous to her...
Me? Speechless for the day... Decided not to talk back for a change... BAH
It was embarassing!
