Time flies especially after Karen tender, I was counting down the days because I really had a very hard feeling about Karen's departure.
She is such an understanding boss, I really respect and admire her. I think she is my prefer boss after Sergey and Aaron.
Tonight, the whole technical team have a dinner session to appreciate the contribution of Karen throughout the 5 years in Macfood.
The dinner was hold at Bubba Gump, also was my first visit tonight, is just cant believe I am dining here because of such a sad reason.
Apparently, the restaurant name dint remind me of the movie - Forest Gump....after Chiam, our technical director mentioned that.
She even questioned why none of us knew about the movie, well I actually knew, but not familiar.
I do remember their famous quote:
Oh well, good to know the link between this restaurant and the movie.
I also quite like how they use the plate to call waiter/waitress:
Run Forrest Run - we are good with everything, please let us enjoy our meal
Stop Forest Stop - we need some guidance or so called service...lol
We actually accidentally turned the red plate on, and a waitress come to us and politely ask what we need.
That's how we discovered the function of the plates hehe.
I ordered the "....of cause we have scampi" which is a plate of linguine with tender shrimps and also a toast...
It taste not bad, the toast is crispy and there are many shrimps as well.
We also shared lots of platter - Bubba's far out dip and shrimp mayan salsa.
shrimper's heaven: with 4 types of shrimps, expensive but who cares, is appreciatiation time!
We also not going to be shy for ordering dessert ya!
Alabama mud pie - not really nice regardless of the fancy name
Chocolate chip cookie sundae - is a bit too hot as the sundae almost melted when it served...
chocolate dream cake - not dreamy at all
The hook, line and sinker - just like its name....not hooked up though, is sinking ==
Overall Bubba gump dessert is not charming as their names, but seafood and other main dishes are quite good.
Here are some photos of the night:
I guess this would be the last time Karen dine with us for company event.
Thank you for being a great mentor, and we will definitely miss u!
