    Last Day At Dessert's Bar

    After today, I don't have to wake up so early and get my ass to work.

    After today, I don't have to tolerate countless hours of jam just to travel down to KL for work and back home after that.

    After today, I wont get screwed by my supervisor for being 30 minutes 5 minutes late to work.


    After today, I will be able to bump around till the end of my holidays have to start writing my industrial training report.

    After today, I will be few hundred bucks richer.

    After today, I wont have my free cup of coffee everyday.

    After today, I wont have the freedom to "sample" my favorite ice cream/sorbet anymore.


    After today, I wont be able to go for the Friday bazaar and get my favorite 'nasi kukus pandan with ayam goreng rempah'.

    After today, no more 'satay ikan', 'soup rasem' and those other healthy/unhealthy food alike for lunch.


    After today, I'm free.

    After today, I will become a full time student again.

    After today, I know what I had learned in this pass 3 months wont go to waste.

    After today, I learned how not to be deceived by the looks of a person and their early stage behavior.


    After today, I believe I have either changed for the better or for the worst.

    After today, I learned that I can never please everyone no matter how hard I try.

    After today, I know no matter how hard one tries to be a "good person", someone will just see you as a "bad person".

    After today, I wont be that "nice" anymore~ :P


    After today, I will miss this place.

    After today, I will look back and reflect the lessons I've learned from time to time.


    After today, I will try my best in whatever I move on to do in the days to come.

    After today, there will be a better tomorrow!

    After today, I only have 12 more days till new term starts!!!!

    See you guys in college soon!!! ;)

    Darn, I miss that frigging LCS... =/

    Competitor Analysis

    ------------------------
    Whats On My Mind:

    I'll be going to Singapore on the 21th - 25th
    this month for Asia Conference!
    ------------------------


    After my transfer to Dessert's Bar Menara Hap Seng KL,


    The challenge became harder because of tight competition between various food and beverage outlets.

    We device strategies and plans, only to find out the much more prestigious food brands copy our same technique also!

    Howdy neighbor!

    Blardy hell, need or not ar?

    We give sampling half cup, they give sampling full cup with straw some more....

    Nak cari gaduh ke?

    But not as power as this next neighbor.


    This wan is dine & bank man! Now you cant find excuse to not pay for the food anymore.

    And what is darn arse is, when they got too much of customers,

    The customers will naturally come over and sit at our tables outside.... :(

    Indian buffet

    Observing my surroundings can be really interesting, cause I notice something,

    On our left is Old Town Kopitiam, right side we have Starbucks, Desserts Bar is sandwich in the middle between those super brands, Olive Tree is just few doors away.

    Imagine with me, OTK sells full meal set, Starbucks and their signature aromatic coffee, Olive tree with its value buffet lunch and we on the other hand offer delicious desserts.

    But this neighbor of ours...


    Sells their country!

    Gua Kangen College

    ------------------------
    Whats On My Mind:

    There will be a really interesting post coming up next!
    Believe me, it will blow your pants off! So stay tune!
    ------------------------


    Words just cant explain how I wish to go back college!

    I miss the times where we were just so darn free.

    Even though with assignments and test, we still at less have the space to lepak, play games and do other fun stuff.

    Cook for fun at Christin's place~

    I miss the times we boycott stupid-fatty-ass-stick-on-chair English teacher,

    "Ok ok! 4.30pm already! She is late half hour! Its our darn rite to ciao! Consider give face already la, higher diploma students 15 minutes already no where to be seen!"


    Our masterpiece! 'Daging masak hitam'!
    I know, shut up! Its still taste nice ok!
    Looks can be deceiving! =3

    After saying that, we DH 28 for the 1st time, walked out of class because lecturer was late.

    But only to face replacement class the next lesson.... :(

    I miss the times we go pool and condemn how lucky Fandi is when he plays just chill, play a round or 2 of pool.

    I also miss those cooking sessions we did at Ridzuan Condominium.


    Eduard is not just a talented musician, he is also a great cook!

    Self created recipe dish, with cheap white wine and rice bungkus from the mamak downstairs.

    What more can we ask for?

    Edu showing his kitchen skills!

    I say the most important is still have fun hanging out no matter the condition or environment.

    Come on man, there is more to life in college then just to study!

    But I never say study is not important ok! :D

    Chris the bitch sommelier... :P

    I hope time just pass faster, I cant wait to enter the next phase of college!

    Graduation is just so soon! 8 more months!

    I forgot what is the name of this dish... :(

    To all my DH, DC & DT friends, hope to see you guys soon, take care and stay strong during training no matter the shitty condition!

    There is always a reason behind everything. :)

    That is all for now, will be back again with new updates! =D

    Those Darn Blog Things Which Are Kinda True Sometimes

    ------------------------
    Whats On My Mind:

    I changed my hand phone number,
    ask me for my new one if you din get my message alert. :)
    ------------------------


    After much hype working at 1st, I began to start feeling dry..

    As days turn to weeks, I just couldn't wait for it to turn into months and eventually flush into the toilet bowl of history.

    The people at my work place here are good and the pay is good too.

    Maybe its just too routine and boring..

    Good thins, I got a call from my supervisor, she said I will be transferred to Dessert's Bar Hartamas, which is good, a new environment!


    I tried the above test on some website, I think that pretty much explains why.

    I can't take it anymore! I will go crazy if this goes on!

    So I found myself a time killer! Just in case my new spot is as boring as Mount Kiara.


    This RM16 baby will be my best friend for now,

    I know its not going to last, because I love reading these kind of ghost stories.

    Its the only book I can read finish in 1 day!

    Finally!

    The results are out!


    Here I go again!

    1st to walk out of cost accounting test and still manage to pass the exam! Definitely way better then my term 2 financial accounts.

    Thank heavens! :D

    Looking at this results really makes me miss college so much, hope to see you guys again soon!

    Take care! ;)

    p/s: Better updates next time... Really mentally tired at this point of time... :(

    Sweeter Day By Day

    Just 3 days of working..

    I've already learned so much from the staff at Dessert's bar.

    Strawberry Mango~!

    What is even more exciting was on the 2nd day of work, there was this group of 5 people who came at night.

    As usual, I went and took their order.

    Suddenly one of the guy said something,

    I forgot what garnishing is this for!
    "today is my friends birthday, can you sing him a birthday song?"

    "arh..?"

    "please! I'm serious! look i'm foreign, i just wan my friend to have a memorable birthday."

    "arhh....?? you sure?"

    "yes, you HAVE to do it, please!"

    "err.. alright, no worries, I will get that arranged for you."

    For 'apple smoothie'

    Do I even have a choice??? T.T

    Who in the world would expect that on their 2nd day of work?

    Whats even more funny was, a family of 5 came.

    Apparently the dad wanted to buy some desserts for his young son, so he placed the order and sat down.

    For 'apple honeydew smoothie'

    Few minutes later, he stood up, walked to us, and told us "look, my son fell asleep, can cancel the order please?"

    And the entire family left just like that...

    What strange nonsense...

    Like that also can?!

    For 'kiwi peer smoothie'

    The strange just gets stranger.

    There is this product in our menu that goes by the name '6 pax'(those abs kinda 6 pax).


    I think, if not because they are made up from fruits and less butter,

    They should rename it to '6 months'(is 6 months pregnant punya pregnant).. :P

    Wishing all my training course mates 'Happy Training'! Hope to see you guys soon!

    I'm all excited for the upcoming food promotion in term 5! Are you? :D

    1st Day At Desserts Bar

    Our shift starts at 9.30am today, Sio Sen, Rebekah & I tumpang one of our friend - Terence's car to our work place.

    The 4 of us we divided and sent to 2 different areas, Hartamas & Mount Kiara.

    After dropping the girls at Hartamas both of us guys head to Mount Kiara.


    I have totally no idea where and how does the place look, we only knew our supervisor by the name of - Qian Qian.

    Like sheep to the slaughter, we just went in and hope our supervisor isn't a devil.

    And thank goodness she is a really nice person!

    "strawberry bathing", in other words, wipe the strawberry..

    Upon the normal introduction and all, we take a look at the outlets menu, just to have a rough idea of what we sell.

    After that, its ice cream tasting session! We get to taste a bit of all the ice cream that Desserts Bar offer.


    Not bad for a 1st day..

    Our supervisor teach us how to make this particular dessert, the one above.

    Its apple jelly + green, red, black grapes + apricot + yogurt at the end, its nice, but dry..

    Till the end, you feel like throwing up after eating it, but heck, its an experience anyway!


    I really like it here, this training is going to be a really good one!

    So good in fact, they really understand their employee very well.


    How can you not like to work for Desserts Bar?

    p/s: sorry for the short update, some thoughts has been really distracting me these days, I will be better soon, till then will think of better & funnier updates! :D
