Going to the Ritz

Headed out to Raffles City with Asher in tow to meet Jon for lunch. We both actually got to sit down and enjoy our meal properly cos Asher slept through the entire meal! I think he was lulled into deep sleep by the sounds from the nearby water fountain. He only woke up much later when I was wandering around the mall.

Was going to head to Ritz Carlton after lunch cos my parents happened to have a free stay there for one night, and they invited us to take a peek at the room to see the views (and for them to play with Asher!). Asher enjoyed the aircon (it's a treat! cos we don't use air-conditioning at home), the views and the company (cos he has his grandparents' doting attention :) ).

On the way to Ritz I bumped into two sets of people - my cousin and her husband, and my secondary/JC friends with their babies! :) Such a lovely day! It's nice to have so many surprises in a day :)

Joanne, Baby Josiah, Joce, Baby Emma, Me, and Baby Asher :)







Jon and I had dinner at a fish place in Marina Square. I can't remember the name, but it's not quite worth remembering anyway. The service was a class act. When thed waitress asked, "How may I help you?" we asked for a table for two with space for a pram, and asked if we could be seated outside but away from the smokers. The waitress then scribbled down something hurriedly, ignoring us. We just looked at her for a few more moments, and when she was done writing, she looked up and said, "What did you ask for?" We then had to repeat the request and it took a while before she really understood what we were asking for.

We then asked about the promotion that was shown on a poster outside the restaurant, and the waitress said, "There's no promotion"

"But there's a poster outside"

"What poster? There's a poster?"

Subsequently, we placed our order but she still had to come back to double check our order :/

The food was not too bad, but you can probably find similar (and better) food for less. And with the service leaving much to be desired, we probably won't be going there again anytime soon.
