Chilli's Chicken Spaghetti Got No Chicken

In my personal opinion, it's good that some of these food outlets offer free meals for kids. I mean, they make quite a fair bit of money from the main courses that they offer.

I don't go to Chilli's very often....well, I try to eat out as little as possible because I believe in eating healthily and I don't know what they do in the kitchen and what they put in the food. PARANOIA!!! :-) No lah, it's just that, I prefer to cook and eat at home and it is cheaper too. Once in a while, it's fine.

One day, I took my kids out to Chillis to eat a quick one before we catch a movie. And you know what? I got two instant complaints.

One, is that their FREE meal for the kids got no meat wan. Like, it's called chicken Spaghetti but there is nary a piece of chicken to be found. I was thinking that maybe there is one or two pieces in there? Looked inside and nope. Not a single piece in there. Wah....damn kiam siap lor. It is FREE, I know but heck, at least validify why it is called chicken spaghetti instead of just spaghetti.




And then the other complaint is about my main course. I ordered shoulder lamb for my dinner and they messed up. I waited patiently for about 45 minutes but the lamb shoulder never arrived and we were almost late for the movie, by the time. So, I asked the waiter about the dish. He smiled and walked away into the kitchen without really answering my question.

I suspected something amiss and asked again. This time, they walked in and out and checked the machine that they place an order in.

Now, I can't wait any longer because the movie is about to start and they should just answer my question and not walk off like that. I had to ask a few times and yet they did not admit that they forgot to place my order.

I can see it on their faces already so, I told them, 'Look, did you forget my order? I can't wait anymore, the movie is about to start in about 7 minutes. Just tell me the truth...did you forget my order?'

The man did not admit it. Instead, the waitress walked up to me and said sorry about it.

Well, at least one of them had the balls to do it. All I wanted was an answer, so just give it to me and stop giving me the runaround.

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...

At Camp 5, 1 Utama: Kids' Rescue Mission

The kids had a wonderfully exciting day today. Now, this is as extreme as this mother is going to get. Mommy goes Paintball, kids go mountain-climbing...I think I've fulfilled the criteria of offering my kids a fun and exciting life as a kid. :-) It was one of their friends' birthday party and they're a little bored of KidzSports...that's for BABIES, anyway, they say. So, off to Camp 5 then, says the birthday boy's mother. Camp 5 in 1 Utama is located near Neways Karaoke, for those who have never been there before. It's a neat little corner tucked up on the roof of the massive shopping complex. Anyway, the kids had tons of fun although a little apprhensive when they saw how high the 'rock' was. It's actually quite neat and if I didn't feel like throwing up whenever up on higher grounds, I would have wanted to try it as well. The highlight of this party came in the form of a rescue mission. As we all know, when one is frighte...

Demanding a Balanced Lifestyle

We live in a world choked with demands….demand for more money, better lifestyle, more holidays, smarter kids, bigger house, posher cars….etc. People walk around with spiritually unimportant goals in their minds driven by the need to succeed and be better than others around them. Hong Kong. South Korea. Japan. Most Asian countries suffer from this ill-fate which have caused a horrific rise in the number of suicide rates in the said countries. Malaysia is no exception as well although we’re very slowly gaining ground on our neighbors. Just picking up my son from school can become a stressful affair. I’ve mentioned this to a few friends of mine over the phone and all of them cluck their tongue shake their head. It’s end of the year and the kids are getting their test results back by now. I overheard a couple of tai-tais (housewives) gripe about their kids’ results. Mom: I don’t know-lah. My kid did not do very well this term. The best also got 95 only. (NINETY FIVE ONLY???) ...
