As for new season, we got a free transfer from "Devils'- Bar United" which was a very hot club but recently seem like relegated to the "Non League Division". That why Simply aka Ah Du decided to join the Gluttons. As for a freshmen he also not bad for his rounds at least 1 rounds of all the variety of food available. But still, lots of room for his improvement for more rounds of food.

Because of the Chairman's 25% discount voucher, we give it a try. But actually the food so so only. Variety nothing WOW about to mention standard hotel food. The sashimi taste like jelly which directly from fridge.

"NSmen to be" Samster in action

Samster commented: There were other dishes like Mutton Rendang, Stew Pork Belly, Beef Stew, Sweet and Sour Pork...etc. The highlight of the entire dinner was the "Thi Tor Teng" or Pork Stomach Soup. Damn shoik man!!! Was flavourful and had just the amount of pepper for that "oomph". Should have seen the Samster's face when he first tried the soup. He was like in Heaven for a short period. The popiah and kueh pai tee was also nice, although the former's skin, according to the Dy Chairman was a bit rubbery. They also had Lor Mee but was only so so. The good thing was that you can have as much ingredients for the bowl of Lor Mee as the bowl can hold. Everyone who tried the Lor Mee had mixed comments and feelings. The new signing said the Malcolm Canteen's Lor Mee is nicer but the Samster like it saying that it's tasty but soup wasn't thick enuff.

Everyone had at least 4 rounds of food and 2 rounds of deserts. They even have a chocolate fountain with gooey dark chocolate. The samster was excited but was disappointed in the end after his first chocolate drenched strawberry. He's apparently more of a milk chocolate person.

At close to 3/4 of the 1st half, Samster got a call and left the arena for his newly rent Caddy like kangoo mini van. Oh the battle still on for rounds of dessets, as we attack the dessets lane
