30 IS THE NEW SEXY!!!

Geez, can't believe i'm turning 30 in 3 days time @@

It kinda feels like a great mile stone, an accomplishment of some sort.
Super makes moi feel like commemorating this special moment, like buying my first Chanel bag (kidding TOM!!)

And as people around me ALWAYS say "Before you know it, you'll hit 40s, 50s, with just a blink of an eye."

Scary huh.

I know

Anyway, met up with a couple of my really good friends for dinner down at Planet Hollywood, Singapore. The suprising thing is: It's a "FIRST" for all of us.
Very koo koo right?

It's my second time to a Planet Hollywood restaurant. The first time was in Planet Hollywood Copenhagen where Tom treated moi to a YESH birthday treat as well for my last year birthday. Such a coincidence.

Robert was rolling his eyes when we asked him to help us take a picture outside Planet Hollywood. "You do know you are not tourists"

We know and we don't care. Hmph.

Kent ordered this famous planet Hollywood beef and chicken fajitas which looks super good but kinda troublesome to eat.
It's similar to making your own popian. So if you love to hands on with your food, Feel free to give it a try.

Desmond, who's super into photography right now (he even attended photography classes!!) told us to pose with our body slightly twisted, face angled slightly, hands on the hips to appear slimmer in photo.
Like it really makes a difference. LOL

Moi with a Polaroid photo taken by the Planet Hollywood staff after the gang sang moi a Happy birthday song. Complimentary from Planet Hollywood. (can see moi's tearing slightly too)

Moi realized that people loves to go to Planet Hollywood to celebrate their birthdays. Must be the free ice-cream & the Polaroid photo huh. We sang like 5 times!! happy birthday songs for the birthday boys, gals, man & woman.

On a separate note, our first time visit to Planet Hollywood Singapore was not as pleasant as we expected. The service of the staff were okay i guess and i don't even mind singing the happy birthday.

The thing that totally irked us was the special DBS credit card promotion of 1 for 1 entree. It is SO SO SO misleading. Initially, we thought that for every entree we order, we'll get another free. Since there's 7 of us, we could get 3 entree FREE right. WRONG.

Upon checking with the staff there, it's not the case. The free entree is per table. So we only get one free entree no matter how many entrees we ordered. The staff kept emphasizing that "Ohhh, you have to read the terms and conditions properly"

We were like "HELLLLOOOOOOO!!!!!" what's the point of advertising 1 for 1 entree when it's not effectively the case? (btw, there's this huge 1 for 1 banner outside the restaurant as well). Then we asked the service staff if it's possible to split the bills since so many of us has a DBS card. Again, they said "No, they can't do that".
I guess at this point, you must be thinking we're very cheapskate. But the thing is: What they are doing is misleading advertising. Saying something like "one for one" when it's not the case at all?

Can tell im super irritated right? Grrrrr... But it's still a happy day that would remain in my memories :)
