Friday was pretty fruitful. I got the chance to visit Sats Catering on Friday. We took an exclusive tour (it's exclusive now because they do not allow visitors after the food contamination incidents at Prima Deli and Royals) around the production floor. It was an eye-opener for me. We saw how they made pralines in the chocolate room, how they prepared sandwiches in the cold kitchen, how the lady picked salad leaves even though they all look very good already! The smell at the baking center was heavenly! Did you know they make their own sausages too? It was such a cute sight, pop pop pop out comes the sausages from the sausage making machine. The guide also told us each chef fries something like 800 omelettes a day??!! There's a First Class kitchen dedicated to preparing meals for First Class passengers, and ethnic kitchens. The Japanese kitchens were particularly interesting. All the tableware are so pretty.
I saw how much work is put into preparing inflight meals, I will never waste meals onboard again :(
We were treated to a random sampling at lunch. They served us food from CX714. Gosh the food tastes so good on ground! Apparently we lose 30% of our sense of taste when we are 30,000 feet high.
Met up with lela, shimin and huimin in the evening. I am so ashamed to say the last time we met was more than a year ago. And we still laughed over the same old funny incidents which happened during our secondary school days. :) Okay, good luck to you, huimin! You shall end your playing days tonight!
