Started the day with breakfast. Indeed, the breakfast served in the hotel was pretty good. Breakfast was done by 9.15 am and discussion took about 2 hours to complete before headed for lunch.
Well, we found this place at the 2nd floor... not too busy or 'exposed' to the crowd to work on the presentation :)
Haha... looks like feeding time came so fast in China! We went to nearby restaurant that looked decent... of course, had higher expectation since it came with 10% service charges... However, it's not worth the value - with average food (that came with lots of oil), the bo-cap waitress. Oh yes... her face was so dark and stood right behind us after handing the menu. Aiyoh! Think we local? No wait time... can't help... it re-affirms the service level and attitude of the locals... of course, minus that of international hotel! It was a marked difference!
That evening, I was spared from the dinner! Thanks to CCH, giving me a choice! Thought of dining at the breakfast areas - the food looked delicious... one draw was the raw stuff! But I didn't go... after thinking twice, I decided to ask for in-room dining. Not much choice though it looked as if there were... Asked for something pretty 'safe' - Hainanese Chicken Rice (RMB98) and Seasonal Vegetables (RMB39). So, the comfort creature had her 1st in-room dining experience!
Nice presentation... but the rice was not as fine as what we had in Singapore, the chicken was not the tender part (or was it a matter of preparation method? or it has been 'localised'? I wonder). Oh! See the layer of stuff on the surface of soup? That tells how oily it was... By the way, it's tou-gay soup...
