Smaller Portion

Lunch today was at Bangsar since I had to go to the bank during my lunch break. Since the place was packed, I went to the one with the least crowd. Today, it was The Loaf.

It had been a while since I last came here. The service was quick as usual but I noticed one thing. The portioning had shrunk. The mushroom soup used to be served in a bigger piece of bread compared to what it was now. I guessed, it was the sign on inflation then ...... Sigh!

Heavy Morning Session

The session this morning was really heavy. At least for me. By the time I was ready for lunch, my head was ready to explode. The lure of just chilling out was just too much. So, we decided to go out for lunch.

We ended up at a restaurant just around the corner from the Congress Hall. Italian again, but a nice prim restaurant, a bit different from yesterday's cafe. But with a typical family run clinic, the service was slow. We had the time to plan what to do for the rest of the day, as well the plan of escape for tomorrow.

For now, let's enjoy the lunch ....

Please Feed Me

Finding food to make everybody in the group happy proved to be a challenge. I was OK, as long as I can avoid meat and there were salad available. So, for lunch, even though I found the food to be good, a few of my colleagues felt otherwise.

For lunch, we didn't venture far. We had an Italian pasta by the Conference Hall, quite a posh one. Since the break was only for an hour, it made sense not to go far.

There would be a planery session right after lunch, and then I planned to go out for a quick excursion into town. To be back before the last session of the day.

I was distinctly pulled however towards the McDonald's just found the corner from the Conference Hall. First of all. It didn't look like a McDonald's. More like a posh restaurant actually. But, that would have to wait. Maybe I'll drop by there tomorrow.

Return to the Pyramid

Believe it or not, even though Subway Pyramid was only a 5 minutes drive from my hospital, I had not been there for quite some time. Ever since I opened my Desa ParkCity clinic. I usually had Monday and Wednesday morning free. Not anymore.

So today, before the Friday Prayers, I had to do a bit of shopping there and since I was there quite early, decided to have a quick lunch as well. It was still much the same. Not many new shops. But the electronic stores on the top floor were still going strong. You could get most of the latest gadget there, minus the hustle and hype of Low Yat.

Parking was still a pain, even at 11.30 in the morning. I remember last year that I had to park at the hotel just to get a spot. The place could clog up really fast ......

Fire Talk

I couldn't believe that I actually followed some of my colleague and sat through a whole hour talk on fire safety at the hospital. One whole hour. And it turned out to be quite OK. Some of the Doctors even bought some fire extinguisher after that. The talk was THAT good I supposed.

And it helped that the speaker actually showed us some photos of actual fires and videos on how to use the available equipment. And some cool pictures on the explosion from the Empire Shopping Mall in Subang. Some behind the scene stuffs.

At least I know where to ensemble should there be fire.....
