Day 7-9: Foods in San Jose
We had the training sessions at
Santa Clara for 4 days with breakfast & lunch provided. By some strange
coincident, Plaza Suites also provided complimentary breakfast thus I ended up
eating the breakfast in office for 1st day and at the hotel for the remaining
days since they provided hot choices in hotel.
Breakfast
Breakfast provided in office was
mostly cold choices such as fruits, yoghurts & pastries. I did love the
cereal & fruit parfait on the 1st day as the strawberry was divine.

In day 8, I ended up enjoying
breakfast in Plaza Suites - one may ordered various type of order to make egg
choices and they were complimentary. I
ended up ordering omelet with ham & cheese with a side of bacon and found
it too filling (FAT) for me. =p
 |
| Omelet & Bacon anyone? |
In day 9, I simply get the ready
made scrambled egg and made a scrambled egg sandwich as breakfast instead.
Nothing fancy to shout about.
 |
| Scrambled Egg instead.. |
Lunch
Lunch was provided through the
sessions and we were having sandwiches + chips on Day 7. I had the chicken
breast sandwich and it was not bad.

| Lots of Sandwiches to choose from... |

We had Mediterranean food on Day
8 and it was kind of bleh! The Mediterranean food that I had in Calabasas was
better. I did liked the salmon though. =p

Day 9 was Italian and it was
simply carbohydrate overload. LOL!! Not the best Italian food I'd tried.

Teatime
What is a training session
without teatime? We had brownies, cookies, cheese & crackers in general.
 |

 |
| Cookie, Cheese, Cracker & Fruits |
The most outrageous teatime was in Day 9 where we had a mini Happy Hour with alcohols, pizza & buffalo wings right in the office! It was such a blast! =)

Dinner
We had a group buffet spread at
the Bourbon Pub at Levi's stadium on Day 7. There were beers, salads, Brussel
sprouts, NY strips, salmon and desserts. My favorite was the salmon &
Brussel sprout as the NY strips were too raw for me.

For Day 8, I drove to Great Mall
for some shopping before getting to Walmart to grab some junks as dinner as I
was too full after teatime in office to have any proper dinner.
 |
| Time for Great Mall! |
 |
| & Walmart! |
 |
| Microwave Food! |
Day 9 was In & Out burger
after some shopping at Ross and I must say I still prefer Super Duper burger
(link). Somehow the patty for In&Out was simply too thin to have the same
effects like Super Duper's. But I guess it was due to the price as well since a
cheese burger only cost USD2.88 with tax! Too bad I didn't manage to eat that
during this trip. I also managed to squeeze in a Walmart visit for some snacks
since this would be my last night in Santa Clara.

Happy Hour!!!
Plaza Suites provided
complimentary 1st drink at the bar from 5-10pm thus every night I would try to
make it there for wine or Bud-light. It was generally fun sitting there at the
bar nursing your free drink over the TV or your own phone. Sometimes there
might be hot guys sitting there for your viewing pleasure too! =p
