Of Accomplishments and Fine Dining

Woke up at 9.30am today and had cereal again. As usual, I showered before driving to college. Went to class with AC. We then sat in class till it ended at 12.30pm. For the first time, I saw this weird message on my laptop.

This never happened before...

Ignoring that, we went to DNL for lunch. I took some taufu, vege, and curry. Gave it to the lady cashier and she gave me a good price for it. Happy :)

After lunch, we went over to APIIT. The five of us then camped in "Discussion Room 1" of the Library which AC booked for us. We then worked on our assignment till it was 5.30pm. It was a very productive 4 hours because we managed to finish one module. :D

When we were done, we packed our stuff and drove to Taylor's Lakeside Campus. The four of us (KW, AC, ZS and I) were here for dinner. CW, KW's friend, is having her "Restaurant Practical" for her final exams. We were her invited customers.

We got there by 6.15pm. Walked around (aka. got lost) the campus till 6.30pm. Found "Tangerine" and waited outside till it was time. At 7pm, we were ushered to our seats.

CW showed us the menu and told us what we would be having. Everything was in french but they had translations in the menu. :P

She then gave us some bread. I was actually shocked that they gave us CARREFOUR potato bread! Felt so cheated. :S

After that, she served us some Onion soup. I didn't really taste onion-ish and was quite sweet. Also, there were so little soup. Very very shallow bowl.

After she cleared our bowls, she took out the WINE! CW told us some facts about the wine. Then, she poured some for KW to try. Upon KW's approval, only did she pour the wine into our glasses. :)

I liked it. While waiting for our main course, we looked around. We then spotted CW talking to one of the lecturers. She then came over and told us that the lecturer asked her not to refill our wine!

That was because he thinks we are DRUNK! WTH, we were just joking around and having fun. Later, ZS then pointed that my face was RED. Goodness, and I haven't even drank one full glass. So, I stopped drinking and left the remaining wine for my friends to finish. :S

Next was our main course. Fish with lemon sauce, potato, vege and some carrots. It was quite good. Wasn't that filling though.

After that, she cleared our plates and took out a stove. CW then flambéed (flamed in French) the crepe. That was our dessert. She actually used lots of sugar and orange juice for this flambé.

I do not like orange, so I won't comment on that. AC loved it though. Also, it'd be nice if the crepe wasn't that thick.

Later, she asked us if we wanted coffee or tea. All of us asked for coffee. Moments later, she served us our coffee and poured us some milk.

We sat there talking and sipping our coffee. Later, she led us out of the restaurant and we thanked her. For RM20, this was quite a good experience. Also, I'm pretty sure she will pass this exam. :D

AC dropped ZS back at his house. Then, we drove back to APIIT where I hopped into my car. Said bye to KW and AC before driving home.

Got home at about 10pm. Then, I took my shower and revised a chapter of AI. After that, I went downstairs to have 2 slices of Cheese Bread which was made by dad. :)

Came back up and started writing this post. It's 12.05am already and I shall end this post here. Goodnight.
