Ladies Lunch Out & Ticking Off for Taking Pictures !

I mentioned in the previous post that us ladies on the compound had our 'Ladies Lunch Out' this month at the lebanese restaurant, situated in Saad Hospital.

The meal could have been better but that could have been down to my choice of menu and not a true reflection of the food. I will have to go again and order something other than my usual 'favourite of the moment' shwarma which so far has tasted different everywhere I've tried them. In my mind its got to be the Golden Juice for them and a freshly squeazed juice.

The waiter, door attendent, manager, chef, in fact all of the staff were excellent and went out of their way to make the meal a pleasant and enjoyable experience. One lady ordered fish and didn't like it at all (nothing wrong with the fish, just that she made a wrong choice, something which is very common when you're ordering something different for the first time. Its a lottery sometimes as to what you might get, you might like it, you may not, but you may absolutely love it !). The management just couldn't do enough for us 'all' ... we were 'all' treated to complementary deserts.
The 'loos' were imaculate and gleaming, something you don't normally see especially in public toilets. Well Saad isn't exactly a 'bog' standard public facility so I suppose you could expect the best here in a private hospital area. Still it was above the usual standard even for private.
I however, did get a bit of a telling off for taking some more pictures of the reception chandelier and therefore, was unable to take any others as I was 'being watched'.

Please remember that most pictures are taken surreptitiously, and can be an extremely covert operation, or are taken from a moving car so its incredably difficult to get pictures of what you really want sometimes, and this was one of those occassions. So no pics from in the restaurant or of our lunch time out this month.
