My favorite time is lunch time. I will think of all the food I like to try. This afternoon, we went to Far East Plaza Level 5 for Bento Yakitori. After the not so good yakitori in Plaza Sin, I needed to get a fix of yakitori with a good standard. I also ordered chicken wings and shitake mushroom. I find the shitake mushroom not as good as Tokyo.
Since B3 will be off school at quarter past 2, I decided to get a takeaway Bento for him. The Bento plus taxes cost almost $15. When my wife heard the price, she told me the story of a Single Mum who had a problem when her teenage boy asked for 2nd set of chicken rice at $3.50 each. This Single Mum run her own business and earns a lot. She has more than a couple of millions in cash. Yet when it comes to food, she had a problem that her son wants to eat more. She compares his appetite to his younger sister who is satisfied with one plate of chicken rice. She has a boy and a girl. She will pass her millions to her two kids when she moved on. Yet, she quarrel with her son over an additional plate of chicken costing $3.50.
If the Single Mum told me this story, I would have advise her to spend her money on her kids while she is alive rather than letting her kids feel she is starving them. So instead of leaving say $2million each, she can let them eat to their heart content and give them $1.8million. I supposed her argument will be it is not good for his health to eat so much. I am taking good care of him so that he stay healthy and well.
Frankly, I am happy to spend my money on food for my boys. They can enjoy good food and in future they can feed me with good food.
