Today, I brought Mum to Tony Roma at Suntec coz the last time she visited was more than a decade ago. As usual, I ordered my all time favorite Singaopre Sling, and it's buy 2 get 1 free. But, Mum didn't drink much coz she was happily munching on the bread! Eventually, we ate only 2 pieces of the full slab of Baby Back Rib! Faintz.

It was a very pleasant experience, because we were served by a very beautiful girl. She was patient and explained to me that my favorite Singapore Sling was something like the cough syrup! She was swift to serve, slow to speak and slow to wrath. Simply an amazing girl! Coz I drank most of the 3 glasses, and each glass contained almost 2 shots, I was reduced to 60% soberness. In my drunken stupor, I wrote a note for her and stuff a good tip into an envelope. Finally when we left, I found her and said 'Hey Rayne, thank you very much!', as I presented the envelope to her.

Years ago when I worked in the Raffles Hotel, a guest publicly requested to see me, and I thought gosh! What have I done? He wrote an envelope with a good tip inside, and praised me publicyly as he presented the envelope to me. I could pluck up courage to do the same to the beautiful girl only because I was almost gone, all thanks to the cough syrup!

Thank you Rayne.
