as my hubby was working OT today n my mum was nt cooking.. i asked my sis out for dinner after work. we decided to meet at vivo as dats where we usually took the train home together..i was abt to decide on having dinner at carl's jr until we walked further n saw earle swensen. we had previously dined there once before, experience was nt bad so decided to go there again.as it was only ard 6.30pm, the dinner crowd was nt in yet... we were told to take a seat at the side before they allocate us our table.. the restuarant was quite empty fm the view outside.. no queue lor..liddat also muz take a sit n wait a awhile.. backside haven warmed the seat den they say table ready.. we got a table rite at the end of the restuarant inside, lousy view also.we ordered soup of the day, calamari, fish n chips (for mi) n fried chicken delight (for my sis). drinks was a cooler for mi n ice coffee blended (in cookies n cream) for my sis. the mains included a all-u-can-eat salad bar.after our orders was taken, we went to the salad bar.. tink we spent abt 5mins there.. by the time we went back to the table.. the soup was already served. it was potato soup with turkey ham. lucky oni ordered one serving. it was bland.. den the calamari was served shortly after together with the drinks.when i was abt to finish my salad, the mains arrived!!! wow, dat was fast.. of coz also due to the dinner crowd nt in yet. i happily started attacking my fish n chips. meanwhile, my sis was still finishing her salad. after she was done with the salad, she replaced the salad plate with her mains, fried chicken delight. to her horror, she actually saw a small insect which looked like a cockroach crawling on the salsa sauce on her fried chicken. yeeeekksss!!! immediately called the waiter to see the insect n he immediately said he'll replace the chicken. abt 10mins later, a new plate of fried chicken delight was served. my sis was basically scrutinising the whole plate of fried chicken before she started eating. call it once bitten, twice shy. she was nt even through 3 mouthfuls when she again saw something. tis time round, the dead body of an unidentified insect!!she was disgusted n totally lost her appetite... at tis time, i was already finishing my fish n chips.. heng mine was ok. we asked for the bill, at the same time my sis asked to speak to the manager on duty.the manager came n my sis started to relate abt the cockroach thing fm the 1st fried chicken delight n dat she totally lose her appetite bcoz the 2nd fried chicken delight had a dead insect body. the manager kept on apologising to us n said he will waive off the charge of the fried chicken delight. he even offered us desserts on the house, but we were too digusted to tink of even staying for desserts. we juz paid n left.fm today onwards, we condemned earle swensen at vivo..
