Sick of eating

Steamboat! Already two nights consecutively. And another one tonight? It's a holiday, friends are back in town. Some of them, thankfully. Wish more were here though. So I have had steamboat for the past two dinners.

It is buffet style. Eat as much as you can!

The problem with buffets is this: people eat too much! We take so much more food than we would usually eat probably since we already agreed to pay more than we would usually do upon entering the restaurant. Scared of losing out? Want to eat as much as, or more than, what you paid for? Or are you preparing to go on a fast for the next three days?

I am not sure about you, but I admit that I never fail to overeat and regret each time I do. Having regretted twice in two nights back to back, I am feeling sick right now as I hear the word steamboat. Or buffet, for that matter.

Time to go easy on the food. Pay lah, enjoy the fellowship. No need to behave as if it were an eating competition.
