Major Faux Pas
Posted on May 27, 2007
Yesterday.
We had a b’day celebration in our family. It was nice to be treated by my papa. In a nice swanky wanky restaurant (ok la..it was senses at Hilton Sentral).
Poor papa..the credit card now got BIG BILL to pay! Nvm la Papa…for my birthday, I just want to get down and dirty and just eat yummy crabs at Old Klang Road la. Your daughter very easy to please one.
Sigh!
No.. no.. I did not fall flat on my face, despite wearing 2 1/2 inch heels. I did not accidentally let one rrrrip (aka poopoo blow bubbles). I did not burp like a old chinese guy.
Y’see..they were serving bread (very nice bread) and another waiter was pouring what I thought to be olive oil, into a plate right infront of us. Now, this plate had a combination of spices which I geniunely thought smelt really good. So there I was, instead of buttering my bread, I dipped my bread into this plate.
Woooooaaaahhhhh…tasted so damn good man! I could taste the various spices like cardamon, cinnamon, star anise, etc etc.. Plus, it was warm. I thought it was nice of them to heat up the olive oil, so that the taste of the spices get infused really quickly.
I thought I was sooooo high class… doing that. Becoz nobody else was doing it. Then, I asked everyone to try it. It was really nice..I didn’t understand why EVERYONE was buttering their bread.
Hmmmm…..
Then a waiter walked up and told us that this ‘infusion with warm water’ was to enhance our 5 senses so that we will have a better dining experience.
Bzzzzppp* What?
I felt so embarrased. And there I was dipping my bread into it. Hey! That guy who poured in the “oil” used a Oil Decanter. How the heck was I to know that it was just water? Ok Ok…I’m just being defensive..coz I was really really embarrased.
Sigh.. my mother laughed at me. I just quietly said, “But it REALLY tasted good!”.
Sigh…major “katak in the tempurung” action, man. That’s why I decided to drink the wine and much later..champagne.
Ok la..laugh at me la. Go ahead…at least I didn’t go to bed last night, feeling embarrased. I just thought it was really really funny! Hee hee heee….
Hee hee hee…this is major faux pas…IT’S NOT MY BIRTHDAY!!! HEE HEE HEE..
