Pancakes on The Rocks - It was the first time Peter Krauel and Jarkayna Iman visited Sydney together with their other friends from Emirates Airlines. We met many years ago back in Singapore so it was great to catch up again! I picked them up from Sydney Harbour Marriott Hotel and brought them to Pancakes on the Rocks (http://www.pancakesontherocks.com.au/). The place always had very long queues but we arrived early for breakfast and got in pretty quickly. The pancakes were fluffy and cooked to perfection. They tasted heavenly especially with the melted butter and maple syrup. If you love pancakes, this place is a must visit! Furthermore, it is conveniently located at The Rocks where they are many shops, cafes and flea markets to explore around the area see http://www.therocks.com/ :)
Hurricane's Grill - They requested to eat steak and ribs so I brought them to Hurricane' Grills at Darling Harbour ( http://hurricanesgrill.com.au/ ) to indulge in delicious meat for dinner. I must say they cook the best ribs in the world and the prices were reasonable too! It is recommended to grab a table facing the glass windows so you can enjoy the beautiful views of Sydney's Darling Harbour. The service was excellent as well as they help you put on bibs so that your clothes would not get dirty. It reminded me how we ate Chilli Crab back in Singapore with bibs on! Due to long queues, remember to call and make reservations before heading down to this restaurant. If you love ribs, this is the place to go!
Dinner conversation was pretty interesting as Ingo Janisch who works for Bain & Company talked about how he plans to do his MBA at Harvard University or INSEAD and it made me wonder if I should do the same? Bain & Company sponsors his MBA after working for 2 years with the company. I guess after graduating from Sydney University with a Masters of International Business this May 2013, I need to plan to look for a job or further my studies again. Hopefully, I am able to secure sponsorship from somewhere too! As for Peter Krauel, I was envious that he was traveling around the world with Emirates Airlines and was surprised to know that Emirates believe in providing career progression for their employees as many who fly with Emirates are degree and PhD holders. In this competitive world that we live in, we must never ever be complacent and continue to improve ourselves relentlessly. It was great to hang out with intelligent friends as they inspire me to work harder towards self improvement and development. There is really no time for being lazy... if you wanna reap success in life!!! I'm an ambitious Capricorn :)
