As I was saying, we had a very enjoyable time. Had claypot curry crab, crispy fried tofu (that tasted really very good because it wasn't plain tofu..), sambal kangkong, and mongolian spare ribs. then we ordered another serving of butter stew crab and fried tofu. the food was good... a bit pity though, we didn't get the 20%.. apparently have to show the card before ordering. maybe so they can give you portions with are 20% smaller.
thats funny isn't it? next time restaurants should issue cards that give you half price, but only if you show it before you order. the restaurants don't lose anything because they can give you half of what they normally give, and you get a 50% discount! cool!
we proceeded to a roti-prata place after dinner. not that we were hungry, but I don't know any other places that serve nice cold drinks that don't close before 11. if you have a suggestion let me know.
that was when we started our kopi-shop talk. before that, over dinner, it was more catching up. like finding out how everyone was doing. the kopishop talk was what uncles/taxi drivers usually talk about at kopishops. one hot topic was the NKF la, obviously. for a brief moment, it also went to current tv shows and movies. but since cindy was a little "not current" in these affairs, we shifted the topic.
you know you and your friends are close when you can be so comfortable talking about anything that your remarks become so unpolitically correct.
Example 1.
when talking about how women in their 20s should make sure that they are not wasting time with a guy, because they are usually at the losing end if the relationship breaks, i said "... for a 30 year old woman to be single again, thats quite sad.."
cindy wailed... hurriedly, i tried to save the situation.. but sigh, damage done.
Example 2.
someone said: "I seriously think political science is a bit useless", not knowing that cindy did political science too.
She wailed again...
finally we got chased out of the coffeeshop by people smoking. somebody, please please please suggest a place where people like us can hang out - it must be cheap, music not important, but cannot be loud, AND people don't smoke.
