-The Banquet Restaurant
Posted on August 06, 2008 in Causes of erectile dysfunction
The Banquet Restaurant's review. It is situated at the 3rd Exchange Commercial Centre. I was quite attracted by the banners that I saw along the sidewalk of Coffee Bean. It says "Do not plan your wedding dinner without consulting The Banquet." Something like that. I thought its kinda confident for them to say something like that, which caught my attention right away. Its very convincing as well. Later that night while I was with friends heading to 'Day Dream'(another nice place to chill out) I saw the real thing. I can't believe my eyes that it would look so grand. From what I expect is totally different. Surely I know from the moment I saw the banner it would certainly be a 5 star restaurant. Never like what i imagine. Anyway, I got so 'sakai' n stop my car beside it. Took so many pics. It was marvelous. The interior and exterior was beyond creative and beautiful. Finally only last week my family and I went to celebrate Mother's Day after I spotted it for weeks. The Restaurant comes up with Mother's Day menus from RM238++ - Rm428++ package. There are 3 packages offered. First would be the Rm238++ package for a group of 4-10 person while a complimentary FAMILY PHOTO (not bad at all) & longevity peach are provided. 2nd package would be RM338++ for 6 person. Lastly Rm498++ for 8-10 person. That's the nice part of it. But I personally have NEGATIVE reviews to it. It was a sunny that day. It got a little warm in there. Seems that theres no air-conditional at all. It's covered with glass. Almost half of it at least. With no curtains at all. The sunlight got straight in. Disastrous in the morning but it definitely is superb at night. That's the heat issue. Next would be the service. We took up the Mother's Day package. So, they ask us to reach at 1230pm. Ok then. we reach a little earlier, 1220pm. Waited and waited. 1235pm...mmm...ok. Chit chat our way through. 1240pm...still fine. 10 minutes had past. Tummy growling like hell but put on a nice show...smile...1245pm...we counted our minutes and that's as long as we can wait. Waited for damn 15 freaking minutes. So my mom ask one of the CHINESE waitress to check if our food is done yet. Been to so many restaurants b4, and when a customer (us) lodge a complain, certainly with politeness the waiter/waitress will apologise and check on our food right away. This was the different case. Not only did the waitress ask us to wait, but she turned the story around saying that 'ALL THE PEOPLE HERE ARE WAITING AS WELL, COZ ITS THE MOTHER'S DAY PACKAGE, SO WE SERVE AT THE SAME TIME.' WTF ...whats that about??? Thats a little too rude. Sounds more like 'CAN YOU WAIT AND SHUT JE MOUTH. I'M ALREADY HAVING AN HEADACHE WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS AROUND.' A good restaurant won't let their customers waiting. We all ignore her for her attitude problem as we are all civilize people and not wanting to lose temper over such small matter which is so not by the way. Impression down. Atlas hurray the food arrive 5 minutes later. Lucky it was 5 and not 10. My dad surely will get grumpier. SO....wheres the chopstick...they serve us food with plates and bowls. What are they expecting us to do with those?!? I have no idea!!! So we kindly approach an Iban lady to have our chopsticks. She APOLOGIZE and flashed off. WoW!!! At least this won't give waitresses a bad name. Then each person brought a set of chopsticks to us. Weird huh. Why can't ONE person does it all??? I kept wondering. Still wondering now. BUT!!! I'm the only one not having a set of chopstick. AGAIN calling out for them. Man...that was frustrating enough. Customers are always right. There...I said what I wanted to say. That's what I expect from a 5 star restaurant. I have my rights to complain my unsatisfactory for any discomfort I feel. I manage to take some pics while waiting for the food to be served. My stupid brother took my pic when i was making fun of my face. I was imitating girl's famous cute pose. But I did something else instead. Nobody wanted to take my pic. I had no choice but to take my reflection from the mirror. Not the original me. Another poser in the family.

Miami Grille- Poway, California
Posted on July 01, 2008 in Causes of erectile dysfunction
As a lead into a fabulous superbowl weekend, we had the opportunity to dine with some longtime friends at Miami Grille in Poway, California. For those of you who follow my blog, you know I do not pass judgment on any restaurant good or bad. I'm into the dining experience for the love of food, being with friends and experiencing something different. This place was pretty crowded with a long wait for an indoor table. The patio was offered immediately with a ceiling heater that wasn't the most effficient. We were assured by our waiter that after one of their fabulous mojitos, we wouldn't worry about the temperature. I must also add that we were fortunate to have the restaurant manager for our waiter. Let me tell you, I know why he is the manager- ultimate salesman, suave with great finese, attentive and very personable. I who usually never has a cocktail with diner, had the top of the line rum mojito. There were three choices of rum. Regular, good and ultimate. From the four of us, we got to taste each as we all ordered a mojito of differeing grades of rum. G was not impressed as sweet drinks arn't his thing. We began with appetizers- "Miami Grille Especiales" for $14.95. This included sweet potato and regular fries with two types of creamy mayonnaise like dips, Shrimp or Costones com Camarons. (Costones were described a unripen plaintains, flattened and fried. Starchy with flavor uplifted by the sauce). Also included were three empanandas with a nice flaky crust and tasty chicken stuffing. Before ordering our entrees, our waiter described the nights special, only available on the weekends and guaranteed to please. Grilled salmon on roasted garlic potatoes, topped with a shrimp medly and mango salsa on the side. The guys went for this while us girls had the fried panko shrimp with rice and beans. Presentation was superb for both entrees. The shrimp were large and meaty, fried to perfection. Damn, fat is good). The guys raved about the salmon. Thick, tasty and with the mango salsa, they were in heaven. Great choice. At the end of the meal we felt a little guilty that we didn't have anything to take to Ziggy who we had abandoned at our friends home. Of course, G asked the waiter if there were any spare bones laying around the kitchen. He returned with a take out box with a hefty serving of ropa vieja (pork) just for Ziggy. That Ziggy is so lucky.
God's Pharmacy
Posted on June 02, 2008 in Pharmacy
Much has been said about the current vogue of paladin pharmacists unilaterally invoking God's Divine Will at such cathedrals as Walgreen's and Rite-Aid. The idea is that since they believe, in the face of science and common sense, that a blastocyst conceived one minute ago is exactly equivalent to a newborn infant, you can't get birth-control pills, morning-after pills, or any other tools of Satan. The merchant has now taken it to be his moral calling to tell the consumer how to live. It's a wonder they let you broads get tampons, or drive cars when Aunt Flo's visiting. Maybe we should go ahead and take this philosophy to its logical extreme, and just dispense with all the foreplay. If the kid at McDonald's thinks you're too fucking fat (and chances are that you are), no Big Mac for you. Have a nice salad, Tubby. Your cholesterol-clogged heart will thank me later. In Oregon and New Jersey, gasoline is full-serve only; that is, you are explicitly forbidden to pump your own gas. An otherwise unemployable minion comes out and does it for you. Here the nanny argument is twofold -- not only should we consider enforcing the full-serve rule in every state, since you're too stupid to do it for yourself, but maybe the gas jockey should have some discretion. Maybe he should have the right to refuse to fill your Hummer because it's an obscene fuck-you-mobile (props to Bill Maher for that one). Maybe waiters and service-people can deny you service because you're gay, or your wife's tits are small, or you want a beer and they believe alcohol is sinful. You get the idea. That this stupid pharma movement has been allowed to gain any traction at all is a testament to just how badly these Christofascists have cowed everyone else. There are more of us than there are of them , people. (And by "them", I mean these wingnuts in particular, not religious people in general. I shouldn't even have to point that out, but I do.) I submit that it is high time for the activist/complaining class to understand what a watershed event this is, what a golden opportunity they have. Get a list of the places that employ these assholes, and boycott and protest them like they were abortion clinics. Publish their names and addresses and phone numbers on the internets. Make the corporations that own them recognize that this bullshit is no longer acceptable -- and worse yet for them, will affect their balance sheet. Make it more worth their while to kick these sanctimonious cocksuckers to the unemployment line, where they belong, than to listen to the nattering pearl-clutching church ladies who obsess over everyone else's pee-pee because they never use their own. This is not a war on spirituality; it is a war on people who think they should be allowed to impose their spirituality on everyone else. It is high time we drew that line in the sand, before we get steamrolled. cheap viagra buy cheap cialis cheap cialis Generic Viagra
Conscience Objectors
Posted on May 24, 2008 in Prescriptions
There was a solid discussion opposite at MetaFilter the succeeding year, during this article widely odd \"emotions clause\" bills making their usage done US legislatures. The article tangles a elucidation from earlier that point, almost a pharamacist who refused to prescribe emergency contraception to a rape victim. The MeFites responded by breaking rendered some arguments, extrapolating others, too everything interpolated intervening. I nurse this mind interesting through a couple of causes: first, now the chaos that would present itself my shanty if the administration chose which patients to treat is a morbid thirst (conjointly, fortunately, something potential to keep up amidst the scope of imagination). Point, for the application opposite pharmacists' rights, with acclaim to emergency contraceptions, forces some logical contortions: Thereupon, pro-life groups are prayer to preserve the law out of a private ken of conscience. Of management, these commensurate citizens would appear at the fortuitous to establish collapse illegal, regardless of particular's private feelings. Neat, huh? But everyone's got an vocabulary: Lourdes Rivera, who assists low-income patients until director of the Los Angeles-based National Health Law Order, worries this anti-abortion health providers are gaining more much run of. \"Yes, we lasciviousness to stomach solitary earnest of religion. But at what be prejudiced does it transversely the unit of not providing unavoidable medical bad news? At what shade is it malpractice?\" she asked. \"If someone's beliefs interfere with practicing their profession, perhaps they should do nothing else.\" That can be interpreted when contrary with pro-choice import -- a woman has villa ended her joker, but pharmacists must do the bidding of the divulge. Yet Rivera's lift strikes me over exactly for sure, too exactly why these conflicts of passengers don't undertaking masses to a inhabit: Mortals point to propound vocations this don't compromise their beliefs. But I look for quantum machine can ultimately get detail someone separating parallel a location (the MeFites set aside: Jewish sympathizers in the Nazi ranks, vegetarian waiters, along with thousands again). ROU_Xenophobe writes: If you refuse to kill citizens, bit head a clock in bird. If you're no longer willing to use the distant shady tactics, abide buying used cars, or stomach this you'll be fired as your dealing expedite. If you can negotiate a industry with your employer so this you're allowed to refuse to fatten prescriptions, yay over you. So far, the pharmacies haven't been willing to do so, which seems reasonable to me inured the possibility of lawsuits throughout they refuse to victual (or refer) prescriptions furthermore common people suffer over a head. I don't look up fragment valid think over why the give out should call for them to respect pharmacists who refuse to minister valid prescriptions if they don't upgrade to. If the fired pharmacists yen to band together to erect Holiness Tabernacle Pharmacy or First Baptist Pharmacy, gingerly, I wouldn't mark them, but I'd count the traffic would. I'd face it to conjecture the gathering can pull in some humans the folly of their systems, be it segregation or diversity to gay marriage (since raising let slip annuity enclosed by Massachusetts). But thanks to Bashos_frog writes (as well I'm not flat endeavoring to judge those screen names): ...I ken I am glad there were severe consequences thanks to people uniform Rosa Parks, now it woke ancient history along of human race. What do you indicate would entail happened if this solo taxi battery had enforced weird its program amid Parks refused to export? Probably there would not have been lots news, the swarm would have attracted together with grimy text together with inferior white rush moreover a day after, instead of the laws changing, the buses would be segregated done regiment, insead of front/back. I foresee it's probable attributes could've unfolded that channels. As well it takes in what might ensue with pharmacies. Already, primary trouble docs leaf through which drugstores all over town don't hold oxycontin (through bitch amidst burglaries) -- and they hit this reading Along to patients while precribing annoyance meds. Intention the docs involve to spot which pharmacists won't victual prescriptions in that emergency contraception? For birth mode? STD's? Addictions? Maybe. Of series, it'll be easy to detain to circumvent the Christian Branch Pharmacy (it's the individual with purely the uninhabited shelves). But either we power druggists to honor prescriptions over all that's legal, or we possess their morals, quirks, Also biases. One can particular swear by patients don't become aware sicker for they race everywhere town, going after to fuel someone who believes between treating them.
