Carnivore makes one become a herbivore..

i had dinner with Quan You, Jesse, WeiTing, and Eric at Carnivore @ .c.h.i.j.m.e.s. to celebrate Quan You's Birthday... And as soon as we sat down, and right after the waitress finished explaining to us how "Carnivore" works, out came the huge chunks of roasted meat... Within a short period of time, say about 5 minutes, we had our plates filled with about half a kilogram of meat, without us even having the time to leave the table to have a look at the salad bar.. lolx..

their service was great.. way too good, in fact.. they had overly generous waiters who served meat as if they were free... and yes, we quickly outsmarted them by flipping the "Carnivore card" from ""Sim, Por Favor! (Yes, Please!)" to "Nao, Obrigado (No, Thanks)"... that was the lifesaver..

the gargantuan chunks of meat made the petite old salad bar very very pleasing to the eye and the stomach... oh my gosh.. i've never loved fruits that much.. and oh the grapes tasted the sweetest ever.. i rushed to the plain mayo fruit salad.. and helped myself to what seemed like half of what they displayed on the tray... yes, i never loved fruits and vegetable as much before..

eventually we made a mental list of what meat to say "Sim, Por Favor!" to and what to say "Nao, Obrigado" to... The "Sim, Por Favor" list includes all beef (especially beef ribs), the pork trottle meat (and some other pork), butterfish, and roasted pineapples.. and the "Nao, Obrigado" list includes all lambs, ham, the really dry-looking pork, and these small little things which look like kidneys from some animal..

it was a great buffet.. and would have been better if i was hungrier.. i possibly ate the slowest amongst them all, and although not the least, i'm certainly not the carnivore amongst them all.. all these thanks to Carousel (which still fares number one on my buffet list), and Hanabi (which ironically fares lowest on my buffet list)...

Carnivore makes one before a herbivore...
