3rd Anniversary

As we could only check in at 3pm, we decided to go to AEON Tebrau City for lunch and some shopping for new year clothes (abit early I know..hee..). Heard that this shopping centre is very big and indeed it is. Furthermore, there wasn't much crowd. We like!!!The first thing we did was to have lunch and we went to Kinsahi as I had a craving for Japanese ramen.

3rd anniversary!

While waiting for the food...

which was a rather long wait....

Still waiting...

Where is my food?!?!?!?

Finally...my tom yam ramen is here....

Dear's Miso chicken ramen...

After lunch, we had 2 scoops of Baskins and Robbin and it was time for shopping!!!!!

We bought a bottle of wine for dinner later and some grocers at the supermarket...

I bought a pair of jeans and a pair of heels which i liked very much...both with a tinge of pink and...Dear Dear bought a pink shirt...

More items striked off from the shopping list of CNY!! YEA!!!

It was dinner soon and it was time for us to head to the hotel. The place turns out better than I expected. We were greeted by lush greenery as we drove up to the hotel and the interior design was tastefully done. But what shocked us was the room, or should I say it was actually a suite?!?!? There were a living room, a bedroom, a bathroom with jacuzzi, a shower and 2 toilets! Why the hell do we need two toilets? There are even a toilet bowl and an urinal in a toilet! I will never want to shit with Dear together in the same toilet loh. But I like the idea of having two sinks. There is even a TV above the jacuzzi and the bathroom is even bigger than my room. All I had in mind was a room with a toilet that has a jacuzzi! But for RM$252, I am not complaining . I am exclaiming in joy!!!

Here we are!! Austin Hills Golf Resort!

So after much exclamations and explorations of the room, we decided to call for room service. Since the room is so nice, we might as well have our dinner in the room. That's where all my complaints will come in. The room is so big yet there is no sight of any menu at all! We had to call 2 times, once to room service and another to the kitchen to get someone to send a menu up. We then ordered two soups, a chicken chop, a sirloin steak, curry chicken with bread and a pair of wine glasses.

After waiting for almost an hour, the food finally came and they were less than lukewarm.

Neh mind.

To our astonishment, there were bread accompanied with the soups too! God dammit! We ended up having 3 plates of bread. Shouldn't they tell us that the soup comes with bread and suggest us to get rice with the curry instead?

Neh mind.

We asked for wine glass. They gave us tall drinking glasses.

Neh mind.

We asked for corkscrew opener. They said they don't have. They served wine but don't have corkscew opener?

Neh mind. We have other means to open the wine bottle.

However, there was a limit to my tolerance. The moment I sliced my beef, I was infuriated. The meat was as tough as leather. I could hardly cut it, not to say chew it. I ordered for medium rare and it turned out to be well done, or perhaps overdone. I then called the kitchen asking for a new plate and passed the phone to Dear in the end as I simply gave up. The person can't even understand English. @#$%&*@#$%&*@#$%&*

After waiting for another half an hour, 2 staff came up with a plate of steak. Faint.
Why do they need to get 2 staff to serve a plate of meat? We sliced the meat and it turned out better. This time they gave me medium well. Better than well done. BUT I WANT MEDIUM RARE!!! The chef MUST make it a point that the meat is WELL cooked. Great. Fine. Forget it. We said ok and they left and I am stuck with a plate of inedible food again. I swear I am never going to order steak unless I am in a restaurant. @#$%&*@#$%&*@#$%&*

And an inedible Sirloin steak for me.

Fatal attempt in opening the wine bottle

After dinner, we then get ourselves busy with the room facilities. First thing of course, jacuzzi! Wine and TV while soaked in jacuzzi - a scene that we thought we will only get to see in TV shows. After paying so much money, we make it a point to waste as much water we can for the hotel. Bahahahahahahahaha.

Dear drowned in Jacuzzi

We then spend the rest of the night watching TV. Dear fell asleep after reading a page of his storybook and I finished writing my Christmas cards. We were then greeted by a gloomy raining sky the next morning. =(

We had a disappointing breakfast and took some pictures of the hotel before we left the place. The only things of the hotel that are worth visiting are its nice surroundings, room and golf facilities. Other than that, everything sucks! The food and the service especially. The hotel is more for family and friends. Basically, it is like you go to this beach, you picked up a really beautiful shell and ended up dirtying your hands with the plentiful of shit inside it.

If you are just there to stay and have fun in your room all the time and..
You don't mind not eating in the hotel and....
You can tolerate a few moments of terribly lousy services....
Feel free to go to Austin Hills Golf Resort!!! It is a very nice place to go to!!!!

Buffet breakfast...what you see here is what you get.
