Lunch at Saint Pierre
As I was one of the top 3 for a competition held at the workplace, we were treated to lunch at Saint Pierre, Central Mall today. Had a close to 3 hrs lunch!!
For starters, I had foie gras w stewed apple. Main course - beef. Dessert - Grandmother's chocolate cake. Don't let the simple-sounding names mislead u...the food was simply superb! French cuisine is really delicious, although the portions were really small.
Although the food was gd, it wld hv been better if I did not hv to complete a presentation and make small talk over lunch. It was pretty stressful as these were big shots, and I was the smallest fry at the table. Youngest, shortest tenure, shortest in height, least experienced, I can go on..but u get the idea.
In any case, it's gd exposure definitely. I felt tt the french cheese was really smelly though. The tray was only beside me and I had to stop breathing alr, can't imagine if I had to put into my mouth.
The ang moh waiter was really shuai! As in really shuai! He seems almost perfect to me...gd body as well. My sis said he must b gay..hahah...
Too bad I could't take any photos. It's really an eye-opener. N to hv such an experience just 2 mths into the new job...I m happy as a lark! At least I am assured of getting the 3rd prize...hahah...
