Well. i do admit that i'm not such a cultured person who'd go to fine dining restaurant, primarily because the price of one meal is crazy. Think a meal at fine dining restaurant cost me a day or 2 days of my pay, depending on what food is ordered. Nevertheless, think it's a good experience and if you can afford it do go with someone who noes alot. I guess u'd learn things even at fine dining restaurant. Mayb cos i sua gu.
For me, i'm juz simply fortunate being able to dine at Grand Cordon (tink tt's the hotel's name). For ur info, the meal even if order the chepest would cost you more than 80 bucks. Well, all thanks to Kate who wrote in a complain letter, we got the meal for free. The meal was pretty stressful initially, for i m not even sure what the menu is talking about. They used so many ingredients that're not usually found in typical restaurant. And i was lk "Huh, wat the hell is this." And when ordering meal, all u're hear me sae is "Can i haf this?" Totalli could not pronounce the name. Hahax.
Then when it came to the eating part, i was lk so many utensils, which to use 1st. Hahax. Luckily, we haf the ever knowledgable Susan whom u could ask 101 questions. :)
Despite the misery during some occassions, i felt lk i'm treated lk a VIP, people squats to talk to you, and the food is lk heavenly. Especially the steak, 98 bucks for a steak. What more could u ask for. And best of all everythg is free. Their service recovery was so well done that i'm sure i'll go back to dine again. Yes, a waste of money some may sae, but i tink no harm pampering yourself once in awhile. After a year's of hardwork, it'd be good if we can pamper ourselves to a meal there.
I'll be back~
