Buffet Lunch @ Plaza Market Café & Daddy's HomeComing

Today is Teacher’s Day and Primary schools are closed for the day and Anders childcare was also closed.

So I took time off to take care of both of them at home. Last night I was making plan of where to bring them to?

Both anthea and Anders had been requesting to eat Buffet; they seem to enjoy the part where they can take their own food freely…hee.

With this in mind, I called my MIL last evening and asked if she has any buffet vouchers available for use. My MIL renewed her Raffles Feed membership and besides getting the free nights stay, there are also many meals vouchers.

She readily agreed to let us have the Fairmont Complimentary Buffet Lunch @Plaza Market Café. Immediately I called and make reservation for 3 of us for today’s lunch.

Today, we made our way to the hotel around 11.30am. The children were delighted when I told them that we were going Fairmont for buffet lunch. Yes, I kept it from them till we were at the MRT…haha.

We arrived at Plaza Café around 12noon and were ushered to our seats by the hostess. Coincidentally, we met my MIL’s 2nd sister – Aunty SK. She was with her colleagues at the café celebrating Teacher’s Day. She is a Principal of a secondary school.

Both Anthea and Anders were very excited and kept saying they wanted to take their food. Anthea is very independent at buffet and she helped herself to all the different dishes while I helped Anders to take his pick.

After settling the children, I went around to pick my own dishes. There were as few sections – Nyonya, Indian and Chinese dishes. The nyonya dishes were simply delicious and tasty.

The stir fry counter had also a few very nice dishes like stir fry beef, Prawns and steam fish…yummy!!

Both Anthea and Anders had a great time at the dessert counter especially with the ICE-CREAM.

I had a good cup of coffee with the nyonya kuehs and they were such good combination to complete the lunch.

After a very satisfying buffet, we went to Robinson to walk around. We saw some play dough and I bought it for them. Anthea had enjoyed playing with Play Dough since she played with her niece.

Then we left for home and the children had their power nap.

In the afternoon, while we were on our way to the MRT, I received an SMS from Adrian. He confirmed that he will be coming home this Sunday. He was original scheduled to arrive on Thursday but his officer had allowed him to return a few days earlier to prepare for his course.

Well, it’s good news to us – this means we will get to see him a few days earlier than original. Daddy will be home soon…
