Frugal

Sonnuvabitch! Spend-less-money policy in bloody tatters.

Just came back from Swensen's and Station 1.

Tuesday. Swensen's Earthquake at half price. But i guess i paid dearly for that fucked up 50% discount. Swensen's Subang Parade was packed to the brim and we waited for nearly an hour before our 8 scoops of ice-cream arrived spouting dry-ice mist (attractive, though).

While we paid up, the manager was apologetic but rather helpless as he was short-handed. And this bitchy uncle came over to fucking complain, "this is ridiculous. we've waited for 45 mins!" The manager apologized profusely while surreptitiously motioning his staff to be faster. "Cepat sikit, nanti kena tembak lagi," he added when he uncle stormed off.

Complain so much. I felt like sounding the uncle. We've waited for nearly 1 hour, u wait for 45 mins only go sit ur ass down la. Noisy bugger. I admire the manager's patience. If i were the manager i would have told the uncle to fuck off. "Cannot wait izzit? There's the door!"

After Swensens we popped over to Station 1 (at SS15) for dinner and it was pretty busy as well. Managed to diminish (but not extinguish) my craving for steak by ordering the rib-eye steak. Station 1's steak was pretty good. Large piece of tender rib-eye, flaming black pepper sauce, large scoop of mash & gravy, not freakishly expensive. What more could i ask for? ;)

Am craving for steak la, people. Does anyone know of a great place for steak? Apart from Fridays / Chilis / San Francisco Steakhouse / Vic Station / The Ship? Steak! Perhaps it's time to pay a visit to Coliseum.
