dining 2 at morton's the steakhouse and ___

this was a happy hour on 9.11 for es' farewell part 1. at morton's the steakhouse in mandarin oriental. we had a nice cosy bar corner to ourselves. i think from 5 to 7pm, there was free flow of the steak mini-burger which was really a slab of fatty beef patty with mayo between 2 slices of untoasted bread. free flowing meaning the servers will come by every half hr with plates of the sandwiches and you were only allowed one at one time cos i was told to take a portion though i was not going to eat it.

seemed like its a pity im not a steak lover. i tried a bite for the sake of it cos you dont wanna miss out on this kind of free treats right? but i really dint like it. and i got sick by the thought of the carbs and calories and fats from the bread and mayo.

had the lychee margarita which was not bad but again, i dint finish it. it wasnt that nice after it was left chilling out by itself cos it turned unchilled. the interesting part was striking up the conversation with the dr who turned out to be quite an academic. not sure how to pass a judgement on him- he s very factual and logical when he talks, even when he is talking about past events relating to himself, he can sound very detached from himself. hmm..

walked over to DXO at esplanade? dont even remember that place becos it s not worth mentioning. just remembered the free flow of moet champagne courtesy of the guy who announced his resignation before toasting.

pardon my english in this post. i seemed to have personified my margarita and talking in very rhetoric way- "dr who turned out to be quite an academic"- gee drs are academics!
