Lousy dinner in a cool area

Decided to check out Food For Thought @ Queen St just now for nice dinner after long draining day at work - unfortunately went so late that the kitchen was no longer open to take orders. Ended up walking opposite the road to Olio Dome (yeah, so nostalgic and secondary-sch-ish), where we ordered some mediocre pasta and a barley chicken gourmet pie with pastry-top. The gourmet pie turned out to be just pastry with chicken soup and smelled and tasted really chickeny... Though I know nuts about cooking, I suppose it must be because the chicken was not fresh. I've never had anything so chickeny for a long long time 'cos chicken is generally odourless, no matter how it's cooked.

Anyways... after a unsatisfying dinner, decided to try my luck at Food For Thought again. I've had really yummy red velvet cake at their Bugis branch, and it made me want to relive that again after disappointing dinner. Alas, they ran out of red velvet cake and only had black velvet cake... Sadly it was really not as nice as the red one + cake portion was quite dry and hard (though that didn't quite stop a greedy me from finishing the whole cake lah). I'm sure i can make better cake if i put my heart to it! According to google sources, black velvet cake is supposed to be really chocolatey but the one I just had was not at all chocolatey... So sad I was cheated of my money throughout the night. Hmph.

4 more days of clear-work-all-day workdays. Sob.
