Remember the treasure hunt? As a token of appreciation from Minex to some bloggers and friends for helping them to promote the event, Ben decided to treat us for a dinner after I jokingly stated that whoever got sick searching for the treasure under the rain can ask Ben to boil chicken soup for them ;p The joke turned out to be real that Ben decided to treat us “chicken soup”. Lukcily it’s not just chicken soup, no chicken soup but got chicken meat hahaha…
Last night, we were all dressed up to gather at Sarawak Club. My second time to Sarawak Club. First time was more than 10 years ago, went there swimming with my friend. This is the first time I step into the new Sarawak Club after the fire few years back.
Must camwhore! If not wasted my time for dressing up hehehe… I’m so glad my hair behaved so well last night. Amiey and I, we(Amiey, Cyril, Jimmy and I) were so early! 😉 We reached before 7pm.
Finally, everyone arrived and it’s time to order food and drinks. We had our dinner at Hornbill Restaurant. Ben booked two tables for us.
The fact is that I was expecting a private room hehehe… This is because after organising so many bloggers’ meets, I know that bloggers are usually the loud bunch and also camwhoring bunch. When I saw that we were seated in the main hall, I was thinking to myself, “OH… OH… This is going to be interesting! I hope it won’t get Ben into trouble”.
It really got so noisy that I think the table behind us was suppsoed to have a peaceful family dinner ended up got distracted by the noise from the other table hahaha… That table got so many stares last night from the diners. *SWEAT* Before they left, we were told by one of them that we could have the hall to ourselves as we were the last ones to leave, paiseh…
I’m sure it’s an eye opener to Ben and Varena. Usually people pray before they eat but we take pictures before we eat. Then we camwhored a lot! Imagine all the cameras last night, luckily not many flashes else it sure got on the nerves of the diners there. Hehehe… The other table was noisy and ours were quite quiet but with many camera’s clicking away! I actually camwhored with the DSLRs that I could get my hands on ;p
According to Michael, our table was filled with “old” people and his table was filled with “young” people that’s why our table wasn’t happening *LOL* The youngest at our table was Amiey who just graduated from secondary school and the youngest at their table got some secondary school students. See that? ;p
Some of the drinks(watermelon, honey dew, lime, and orange juice) and the menu.
Ben & Varena sure fed us to the max ;p Was so full that I couldn’t sleep last night. The food was really tasty! Usually food like this won’t get much comments from me because I got so fed up of eating these kind of food already but those we had last night sure blown me away. Yummy… Yummy… CRAP! I’m craving for last night food now -.-”
The food and drinks here are reasonably priced but it’s only for the members, not public. If only we can get such nice food and such prices out there in the market. Too bad… No… If you want to dine here, you have to know someone in here to get you in. You can afford the food but you sure cannot afford the membership fee. It’s a private club what, what do you expect?
Now… I have to dig the menu out to see what Ben & Vanera ordered last night. I’m not so sure whether they are corect or not even with the menu hehehe…
Left: I can’t find this in the menu, it’s sweet corn soup.
Right: Special Hot and Cold Combination, this should be it as I can’t find others that fit the name well. The sushi’s wasabi tasted odd, the boxing chicken is nice but i had problem eating with chopsticks and ended up using my fingers *BLEK*. As for the rest, I got nothing to say.
Left: You come here, you must eat the Buttered Prawn. They are famous for their buttered prawn. It was indeed nice. I thougth it came with the shells but no shell at all.
Right: Lamb Chop Szechuan Style, it’s nice. I love it, the meat is very tender.
Left: Seriously, I have no idea what this is, there’s mango, there’s jellyfish, there’s chicken meat with mayonaise and the crispy chicken skin. My guess according to the menu is Roasted Chicken Thai Style because of the mango in there. Something special and different, I like the skin.
Right: A type of beancurd dish, I’m not sure what is this! Really, I can’t find which name suits it in the menu. Could be Homemade Beancurd?
Left: Baby Kailan with Garlic, very fresh vegetable and crunchy too but too bad was quite full and managed to eat some only.
Right: Palm Fruit & Longan, very sweet!!
Group photo before we leave.
Thanks for the dinner Minex.
