Scotts Beef Noodles

After hearing so many friends saying that the Scotts Beef Noodles have resurfaced at Ion Orchard, I couldn't resist trying it today for lunch since I was in the area today.

After so much anticipation, I must say the whole hoo hah about this stall is overrated and utterly disappointing.

I used to eat at Scotts Food Court alot and always have the beef noodles there so trust me I know how the original taste like. Other than the chilli, the rest of the setup was not the same as the original. The gravy doesn't look as dark and the biggest disappointment for me I must say is the missing salted vegetables. The soup taste bland and lack the beefy taste and the beef balls though bouncy doesn't seems to be seasoned enough.

All in all, it was a total waste of my $6.50....but if I never try I will never know so once bitten twice shy, you will never see me spend my money on the noodles again!

Is this consider good customer service?

Saw this article and is wondering whether people consider this good customer service or it is a disgusting idea?

"UK - If you find your bed too cold to sleep in, staff employees at Holiday Inn will soon help warm your bed up for you.

According to Reuters, the Holiday Inn chain is will offer its employees up as bedwarmers in a trial service in three hotels in Britain this month.

On request, a staff-member at the Holiday Inn will dress in an all-in-one fleece sleeper suit before slipping into bed. The bed warmer will also have a thermometer to measure the bed's required temperature of 20 degrees Celsius.

This service will apply to two of its London hotels and one hotel in Manchester. In an email to Reuters, the hotel spokeswoman Jane Bednall said, "The new Holiday Inn bed warmers service is a bit like having a giant hot water bottle in your bed."

Sleep-expert Chris Idzikowski, director of the Edinburgh Sleep Center, said that there is plenty of scientific evidence to show that sleep starts at the beginning of the night when body temperature starts to drop. "A warm bed - approximately 20 to 24 Celsius - is a good way to start this process whereas a cold bed would inhibit sleep." "

Talented Rio

Rio Ferdinand, one of the defenders of Man Utd is so talented. I know he has a magazine and now he is designing and producing footwear and even act as the model....AND that's not all, he even has his own restaurant call Rosso in Manchester.

I actually went passed the restaurant twice but too bad, did not see any footballers hanging around. But I managed to take a photo of the restaurant for everyone to see.

Look

Look at these men alighting from the plane....one would think they are models right?

WRONG!! They are not models but Real Madrid footballers...damn, don't they look good in suits?
