David: Yah, to have the dinner interrupted is pretty mood damper. I got my share at tcc when I didn't realize the presence of those arts exhibits...

Anyway, I nearly played with fire, snapping non-stop at Laurent Bernard right under the nose of the owner... I am sure glad I asked permission before hand... *Phew*

Camemberu: I see... I do like the way you unravel the description of each restaurant everyday...

It wasn't that Bobby's didn't allow photography, but the manager was very confrontational about it. (The rest of the staff didn't seem to mind.) But once I explained to them that I wasn't in the restaurant business, they let me snap away. But it was kinda awkward then, and I felt bad for my dining partner, who had to sit through the manager's tirade.

In all fairness to them, they were very nice and accommodating after I explained myself.

David: ah, this is the last one on Cuppage Terrace...

David: ah, this is the last one on Cuppage Terrace. I didn't get to sample everything. To be honest, I'm not too hopeful of the Mexican place (saw some limp nachos) but who knows. Kazbar, the Middle Eastern joint, also seems more like a drinking place than eatery. I didn't see any food offered for photography.

Wow, Bobby's at Cuppage don't allow customers to use cameras? I better remember that.

Anon: thanks, I didn't know that. Didn't see any thick toast in all of my four trips to Japan - guess I didn't explore enough yet!

Fen: Maybe Bobby's at CHIJMES is friendlier.

As for the Cuppage Terrace "food tour", I wasn't the only one, actually. It was a media and blogger event, and they let us shop-hop on our own. This was all done in one night.

I didn't know Bobby's is camera unfriendly. I celebrated my daddy's birthday at Bobby's Chijmes and brought along a cake from outside cos I didn't know they sell whole cakes. Daddy actually mount the tripod and play with the camera, the staff seems to be ok with us... But it was just too dark to take any pictures...

Camemberu, are you on some invitations to venture all Cuppage Terrace, your pictures are so exclusive and you are like a VIP on a food tour...

Wow so many write ups! Are there more? Was wondering how the Mexican and Middle Eastern place fared.

Actually went to Bobby's after your post. The food was good. But the manager weren't very camera friendly. Was kinda told off even though I wasn't using a flash and we were the only one's inside for lunch.

But then once I told them that I wasn't there to steal their recipes or anything they were nice.
