Food

Ever since I came back from the Ghost Tour, I have had no appetite. Not that I am hexed or possessed, but just that a sleep debt incurred. Food, which I used to relish, no longer smells or tastes interesting anymore...

What I ate for the past 3 days:

Monday

Memory is failing me. I cannot remember what I had for lunch (Guess I was too exhausted from the sleep debt) but for dinner, Fat Boy and I went to Kenny Rogers to have the Lucille Set: 1/2 chicken, 1/2 stack of pork ribs, 3 side dishes of baked beans, butter rice and coleslaw and 2 corn muffins. Usually, we would lick our platter clean, but this time round, I could not finish my ribs, butter rice and baked beans. I just felt full...

Tuesday

Went to Alexandra Village to patronise my favourite zi char stall. Ordered the usual kailan & fish rice with a sunny-up. Specifically requested the auntie to give me less rice. Didn't feel like eating at all. In the end, couldn't finish the rice and my saliva-inducing, appetite-whetting belachan. Kept sipping the ice-cold sgar juice. Just felt like sleeping away...Nothing else mattered.

Wednesday

Boy, it was lunch again. Forgot the time till Jojo
reminded me. Didn't know what to eat, but since Eugene suggested duck rice, we went to our usual stall. Ordered a plate of duck rice and a can of Pokka green tea. The latter looked more appetising to me :P Managed to polish all the chunks of duck meat, but couldn't finish the rice. Proceeded to Coffee Bean after a usually-hearty-but-now-dull-lunch. The feeling of fullness was up to my throat when I browsed through the variety of ice-blended drinks. Wanted to order a small- sized Expresso Chip, but was told that they only served regular-sized. Ran through the list again and decided to go for my initial desire, but regretted immediately after I got the drink from the barista. It is a torture to throw anything down into the throat if you are very very full - I had that feeling and I stopped drinking after 50 sips - It was half-full when we headed back to the office.

As for dinner, went to Vivocity. Fat Boy had wanted to eat at Tung Lok's Signature or Crystal Jade Dining, but I simply had no appetite and I guess it would be a waste of money. I suggested having a simple dinner at Food Republic, at least it would not that expensive. Ordered claypot laksa and as usual, the spicy broth, which I used to love, tasted bland to me...
