Review: Food for thought

This isn't a full review of food for thought at botanical gardens. We come here sometimes for their breakfast and pancakes and playground. I'll perhaps cover that in another post if I've got time.

Today I dropped my maid off to the Philippines embassy for her passport. Looking at the size of the embassy building and the scarce crowd, I was optimistic that the process won't take too long. So I decided to take lunch while waiting. (Truth is : I knew i would not be able to resist the bak changs my parents brought if I Went home!)

Food for thought was the nearest choice. I ordered the oriental duck salad and a iced lime tea wine cooler.

The oriental duck salad was rather delicious and definitely healthy. Or so I think. Smoked duck breast, orange slices. Lychees, raspberry balsamic vinaigrette. I can definitely do this more cheaply. It cost me $13.

The iced lime tea wine cooler was an utter disappointment. I couldn't taste tea, lime, nor wine. At $8, I could have spent my money more wisely. 

Just after I ordered, my maid texted me and said her appointment starts at 3pm. And I dropped her at 145pm. I am so going home. 

Oh ya, this is a kid friendly place if it isn't raining. An outdoor mini play structure should keep the little one occupied. Affordable kids eat too.
