Merry 12 Days Christmas!

Merry Christmas~! A rainy morning and evening indeed,on the 24/12/08. It has been unusual to suddenly have a heavy rain in the morning,and then later in the evening. lol. But anyway, plans to go for dinner and pubbing with my friends are fixed.


Mad Jack Review:


Me and my team of 4 friends went to Mad Jack, an Australian Halal cafe at Selegie, Pomo Mall. Prior to this, i did not manage to book the seats because the "Crazy Chick" stuff told me there is not necessary for reservation,and for reservations of 10 ppl and above have been all booked. So we took chances in the evening anyway.

When we arrived around 8.20pm, all seats are occupied. But luckily, it took us about 5 minutes to be on the waiting list. Me and 1 of my friend, T.Y ordered each,a Rib-eye steak and i asked for Medium Rare for the both of us. The rest ordered Chicken chop, bake rice and grilled fish menu. Payment to be handed over to counter 1st, with GST exlusive. No service charge, however.(Because there's not much service,either). 10% discount for SCDF,SAF,SPF and Cisco staffs with valid card ID.


Rib-eye steak was less than the menu that i've expected, and thinner than i expected. I thought it looked like Chicken Chop at 1st. But after a clearer glance,it was a thin piece of steak,indeed.


What happened to me was that i discovered my medium rare steak was far less than medium rare.....it looked more like rare,when i tried to cut the steak with my knife. And when i put it into my mouth to bite, i had to puke it out to a serviette. This was because the medium rare steak i had was far less than medium rare,while my friend T.Y, his was properly done. So i had to call out to a Crew to re-cook it. And then it took about 5 mins,for my re-cooked steak to be served on my table. It was less than pleasant dining,but overall,i would say, it is okay, and it is deem possible for the next visit.

KTV Pub Review:

The next destination we went was 'Bonkers 56' KTV pub,recommended by another senior friend of mine. He was with his wife and a his wife's friend there. So me and 2 of my friends,L and W.L(while 2 left for their agenda after dinner) went to link up with my senior friend at Bonkers 56. As usual, the interior was built like what a normal ktv pub does, with no frescos and corning. Just plain ktv pub, dark inside, and with deafening musics. Perhaps it was a Christmas eve, so loud techno musics was played than having ktv songs available. Not much dancing from people though, most just sat and drank around, or play card games. China babes are seen around to entertain the clients, though no hanky panking was spotted. So it's just casual,and no tips was seen given. Overall, i would said it is no different from any other pubs. No real parking slots available,so most patrons will just park illegally along the 2 yellow lines pavement, until TP comes. Price for a tall tub of beer is $55.

Have a Wonderful Merry Christmas!
