Day 22 - The big meal at Chinatown

Rainy   Tuesday

We went out for a meal at a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown after work. We ordered a lot of seafood dishes which are 'seasonal prices'.  I rarely do that because I know they are exceeding expensive.

I didn't pick up the bill and my work mate who did refused my order to split the bill.  I guess  it's not my time to get intimate with these tourist trap dishes yet.



Later I ventured to the 'The Argyle' at the rocks; they were having a Latino night.   I must say I was mightily impressed with the two-level dance floor and not to mention the number of people who turned up for their mid week salsa fix.  It's impressive, very impressive to say the least


Actually the other highlight is I finished reading Jeffrey Archer's Kane & Abel.  I would never have appreciated books like this in my younger days.  I find it absolutely delicious now having had a fundamental understanding of some key historical events.  Such things are very much watered down and conveyed in a slightly childish manner but that's exactly what this genre needs.  I was never a fiction reader but now I think I'm slowly becoming healthily obsessive with them.  What a read! I'm still shaking after the finale.
