Are you feeling frustrated at work ?

Are you constantly feeling frustrated at work? Nitty gritty things like why your colleagues can't handle a simple task like formatting a page nicely or even do a simple mail merge might just pissed your day when you are feeling moody for the day.

Have you ever thought that how your own behaviour would actually affect the whole team's day at work ? Cos in an organization, one's input at work will affect how the team works.Instead of blaming one another how slow the team works, call out for a meeting to find out whether is there any process is taking too much time . For instance, a huge chunk of emails to be replied everyday , mailing of letters, handling of customers ( both internal and external) , checking of on going project status and handling of phone calls, etc. Perhaps you could allocate a time for checking of emails for a period of 1 hour. For this one hr, there is no other thing that you should be doing other than to check emails. Settle the emails that require the priority attention and also do get yourself a filter using the email filter from www.boxbe.com , it will only allow u to first draw your attention to read only emails from contacts and subsquently let u read emails that are not from your contact list.

With this, I would like to recommend a book I have read in the past which is how to simplify your life



Multi- tasking is the lowest form of effiency !

Food Review at Indian Curry House @ Expo on 11.9.12

This food review that was done at Indian Curry House at Expo was actually an invite from the courtesy of Mr Santosh Cyrill of Indian Curry House @ Expo  and Mr Haren Yong from Street Directory.com

A little back ground about the Indian Curry House

Indian Curry House is founded in 2008 by three professionals with combined experience 30 years’ in food & beverage industry. Today it is run by a team of 25 F&B professionals specialising in Authentic Indian dishes. They have 3 branches located at east coast, expo and bukit timah.
 
It was on a tuesday evening that myself and fellow bloggers are attending this food review. The place is pretty cosy with nice curtains and nice lighting to set the evening mood right. We were all being treated to the restaurant's specialities like the tandoori chicken, butter chicken, fishcake, chilli garlic prawn, kashmiri rogan josh, kulfi and gulab jamun.
 

Here's the first dish for the food tasting - tandoori chicken

 
 

The tandoori chicken tasted like it was nicely being barbeque over the charcoal. The level of spicyness was not too overwhelming. Even kids would be able to take it.

Second dish-fish cake



The fish cake tasted a bit like meat patties with bread crumbs. A different version from what the usual chinese style of fish cake that we could get from the local supermarkets. However , the taste of the fish meat is rather flaky inside which denotes that it is freshly made with no preservatives in it. It is slightly salty.Thus it would be good if besides pairing up with the mayonaise sauce, it could be paired with either ketchup sauce or garlic chilli sauce from sinsin.


Next , we have the saffron rice and the plain basmati rice.


 
Saffron rice
 

                                                 Plain basmati rice

Basmati rice is a long rice grain which is typically used to cook for nasi briyani. Having said that , basmati is benefical to diabetic patients  as it is said to be having medium glycemic index which is lower than any other types of rice.

What does the glycemic index means ? It is actually a measurement of glucose level increase from the consumption of carbohydrate.

Talking about the saffron and plain basmati rice, it is so nice that you could even eat it on its own. As saffron is one of the most expensive spice in the world, I am glad that I was able to enjoy the taste of  the saffron rice on its own. The plain basmati rice is also unique in its own way where tasting each fine grain of it was so enjoyable.

My favourite dish - garlic naan

                                 
 

 

 The garlic naan is done in a manner where it is so crispy and the taste of the garlic is not overwhelming that one would get the pungent garlic smell after eating !!! Kudos to the north indian chef behind the kitchen.
 
 
 

Next , it's the butter chicken


 
 
The butter chicken is very soft and the creamy tomato sauce that is used to cook does not cover the taste of the tomato yet still can savour the buttery taste of it.

 

Next dish- kashmiri rogan josh


This is the mutton dish that does not have the stench of the mutton. It is well stewed with tomatoes and the after taste was that the mutton melts in ur mouth.

 

Next dish - chilli garlic prawns



This dish is considered to be the fusion of the chinese and indian food of the restaurant. It is prepared in the manner of  fusing spring onion, onion , red chilli and the secret sauce by the chef.

 
The Grand Finale- Desserts
 
                                        
                                                            Pistacho Kulfi

It tasted like it was mango blended with condensed milk ,frosted  with ice cream. I found that it was a little too sweet for my liking but it was a nice combination for people with sweet tooth.

 
Gulab Jamun
 
It is made up of milk and being deep fried before simmering with sugar syrup . Personally I feel that the size of the dumpling was made just right cos after the main course one would not be able to eat too much for dessert. Best thing was that not too much sugar syrup was being given. Thus it is was not as sweet as the pistachio kulfi.
 

Wait if you are interested in having to taste the food @ Indian Curry House and lazy to get out of the house . Please go to the website http://www.streetdirectory.com/indiancurryhouse-expo/

Day Spa Facial at the comfort of your Home

What is tiring for most of us out there will be a hectic work week or busy dealing with kids at home for mommies. So sometimes when we are interested to go and do facial or massage, the salons are closed by then. So where do we get our fix of monthly facial treatments?

With this problem on hand for most ladies, I have decided to render the home based spa facial treatment at a fraction of cost as compared to salons. As this treatment can be done at the home,it can be done within a few minutes to see effective results and yet you do not have to leave your home. Interested parties who would like to try it out at the comfort of your home , please contact me at 81029909 for more info.
