Buffet at M Hotel

I went with GuGu and Mama on Mother's Day to M hotel for buffet lunch. It was an international spread. Well, there was quite a wide variety, there's pasta, prawn mee, sashimi, chocolate fountain, just to name a few. Of course, the food was tastier than i had expected. Plus, they have free flow of drinks too.. we had calamansi, grass jelly and ice lemon tea.I ate every single food there and had about 30 pieces of sashimi, plus a whole lot of fruits, cakes dipped in chocolate. Mmm.. making me hungry again, although i will not want to eat at the same place again, it's always more adventurous to try different places.

i went labrador battery, kranji war memorial and ford motor factory . i learned a lot from this trip which i had previously thought it would be boring and useless. the soldiers, our forefathers, the innocents, they died for us. they died for us to be here today, living comfortably without worries of war or hunger. we are too complacent, and we should all take some time to think about these people who died for us during the war , how much they had suffered for us. remember , without their sacrifice, we wont be here today.
