It is lonely to eat alone but there is one advantage - you take in and remember the taste of the food better when you dine alone. ^^;;;

Veggie+Sweet, I imagined it'd be something like the carrot/veggie drinks here ^^:;

Now that for months straight there're freelancers working in the my place, so I'm not alone anymore. But it's worst coz I can't go back to the 'alone-at-lunch' days anymore~~ ^^;; Because once projects are finished the freelancers will be gone, until next projects came. I always hope there'd be new projects and we'd have full house of people. I think I'd lost motivations to go out to eat at all if there were just me alone for a long period of time.

Yeah the veggie dessert tasted weird at first but once you get used to the veggie+sweet taste it was actually quite good.

Oh Freda you ate alone?! It does take a while getting used to, doesn't it? And even though I thought I was completely used to it after everyday training for like 3 years, some situation still makes me nervous, such as this one, where the waitress and the chef generally left me alone eating at the window seat but I can see them so clearly checking on me surreptitiously all the time from a far dark corner....^^;; But then they need to know when I am finished with one course so that they can bring the next lo.

Wow Veggie Blanc Manger~~ it's so green, I would think it was green tea. A veggie dessert...so healthy!

Yeah eating alone in empty restaurant make me self-conscious too, you feel that they're all looking at you so you feel obligated to act properly ^^;;

THE FOIE GRAS SHAPE DOSEN'T LOOK LIKE FOIE GRAS (FLATTEN? ^^;;) POTATO LAYERED WITH HAM~~ SOUNDS YUMMY~~~ THE GREEN DESSERT IS MADE OF VEGGIE....DOES THAT TASTE LIKE VEGGIE? WEIRD~~

I KNOW, IT'S UNCOMFORTABLE IN AN EMPTY RESTAURANT WITH ONLY ONE WAITER THERE...YOU FELT OBLIGH TO ENGAGE IN SOME CONVERSATION. FOR A LONG TIME IN BEGINNING WHEN I WORK HERE, THE WAS ONLY ME ALONE AND I ALWAYS GO TO NEARBY RESTAURANT ALONE....I FELT WEIRD. LATER WHEN WE WE HAVE MORE FREELANCERS IN AND WE WENT TOETHER, THE RESTAURANT OWNER WOULD LOOKED WONDER, "WOW YOU'RE NOT ALONE TODAY" AND LATER "YOU BRING IN MOST PEOPLE~" ^^;;
