Dinner & Prize Giving Ceremony for Really3G winners

Posted on November 16, 2006 - Filed Under dining, mmu

Almost two months back, i blogged about my participation along with Lingster and Khek Yang in a 3G competition which was held at KLCC. We did our best and we came out short. When i say that we came out short, i meant really really short. The first team arrived 60 seconds earlier than us and in between that another team sneaked in right ahead of us. So we were third.

Everyone knew that there’s only one winner and the winner will get 3 units of 6680. The rest, nothing.

Two months passed by and last Sunday, i received a sms saying there would be free dinner and prize giving ceremony at Hard Rock Cafe. I immediately called up Lingster and she too received the sms but replied to them that she can’t make it as she’s in Penang. Same goes to Khek. He called me moments after i ended my call with Lingster.

This is the first time i am dining in Hard Rock Cafe, simply because it’s hardcore expensive.

We were given a different menu to choose from as there’s a budget set by the sponsors. We had to choose one starter, one main course, one dessert and one drink.

We started off with Smoked Chicken, Spinach & Artichoke Dip. It’s comprised off tortilla chips, salsa and the special dip.

We didn’t know it cost that much till we referred back to the actual menu. Personally i think, it wasn’t worth it. I rather have the chicken wings.

Then came to the main course. Our table had a hard time choosing. We wasted like 10-15 minutes deciding what to take and in the end we took the one which sounded good -_-”

And that would be the Hickory Bar-B-Que Chicken

At first only 4 out of 5 of us ordered the chicken, then Alan joined the bandwagon after seeing ours.

In terms of portion, it’s pretty big and i myself couldn’t finish my half chicken.

Disaster

Then it was time for dessert. Since we knew the portion were big, instead of ordering 5 desserts, we decided to share so we could have more variety.

We took their Homestyle Cheesecake. I felt damn bloody fat after having one scoop of this sinful cake. I was suppose to take care of my diet but i just couldn’t help it

Then we ordered Apple Cobbler. It had chunks of apple, caramel sauce and a bit of cinnamon sprinkled on the large scoop of ice cream. This was terrible. It was too sweet for my liking. Every scoop i took, i had to drink some water. I ended up eating the ice cream alone and left the rest there.

We knew we had 3 more desserts to order, so we ordered the same thing -_-”

When all of us (including other attendees) finished out dessert, the organizers started the prize giving ceremony and i could see all the happy faces receiving their new 3G phones. Oh, just if you didn’t know, there were like 6 or 7 competitions held through that one week and the one Khek, Lingster and I joined was called the LBS competition. It’s sort of like a treasure hunt but the map is in the phones provided and we had to use it to find out the coordinates.

I didn’t expect much eventhough they had given me some hint that my team would get something. What i had in my mind was a big hamper, filled with sweets -_-”

But i was wrong. I was handed 3 small boxes which had Nokia logo printed all over it.

Three units of nokia 2610. Definitely better than nothing
