My North Indian dinner with K

Today was a super busy day.. My quarterly reporting is due in 2 days time this Thursday, so i'm kinda finalizing all the numbers now.. After my bad experience yesterday where i had no time to lunch after my 1 hour workout at the gym, i decided not to go to the gym during lunch today. Instead, i will go after work. So i bought fish porridge and some fruits back to the office, and ate with 2 of my colleagues in the huddle room.

After lunch, i went Vivocity for a walk. I was looking for cheap promotions for eye-lash perming. Hate the eye my eye lashes are long but not curly enough. I figured if i can perm it, i will look nice in photos for my Perth trip even without make up cause the curly lashes will make me look more "awake". I wanted to shop for winter wear as well for my Paris trip, but the designs at the shop were all butt ugly. So i went back to the office empty handed. Then it was work and calls all the way till the evening.

K picked me up from work at 530pm. We headed to Holiday Inn for some North Indian cuisine. There goes my resolution to go to the gym everyday!

I had been to this restaurant before earlier this year when my boss visited with a few other colleagues from Fairfax. This place is called Tandoor. They serve pretty decent food. They were awarded the "Wine and Dine" certification almost every year as well. The decor is nothing impressive, but i loved the golden plates that they had set on the tables.



K and I had a complimentary voucher for their set dinner for 2. We had chicken drum, fish and nann for our appetizer. I certainly didn't feel it was an appetizer! So filling already!

For the main course, we had this huge white plate with a whole line of small dishes that formed a semi circle on the top of the plate. From left to right: Prawn with curry, mutton with curry, chicken with curry, cauliflower and peas with curry, and the right most one is lentill soup sauce. And then there was saffron rice, and of course, more nann to go with the curry. It was total carboh overload!

For dessert, we had their North Indian fruit ice-cream with strawberry and all kinds of nuts. Trust me, it doesn't taste anything like ice-cream. In fact, it taste like everything BUT ice-cream. I took a bite of mine and didn't touch it after that.. I guess it's an acquired taste.. i don't know! But i don't like it.

To complete the meal, we were then given 3 types of condiments (mint and spices etc) to cleanse our tonsils. Didn't really try much of those also..


On the way back, we dropped by Sheraton Towers to pick up our handphone chargers which we had left in our room when we checked out on Sunday. There was a perfect full moon today, and this is my futile attempt at capturing it in static mode. This totally does not represent how beautiful the moon was tonight.



Shortly after we reached home, K and I went for a run below our block. We did the same on Sunday, but today, i was even more determined to jog off all the carboh i had piled on from my North Indian dinner! Besides, i was guilty for not going to the gym during lunch. I think i am freaking out! I guess i really don't know what else to do to get back my nice complexion and stubborn fats! SIGH..
