Imagine, 5 years at work, same dining table, same environment, same cooking auntie but one thing sure will not be the same as 5 years ago, the price. The purpose to have a cafeteria in the office building are for convenient and to save time since its 1 hour for lunch.

    Sometime me and my mate want to go out from the usual and find a new environment to eat. But can we go out drive a car and went back to the office just in time… for one hour?. Mrs. Tan suggested that we eat at a not regular place, The Kapitan House. Hmm sound interesting since me and yantie never been there before. Mrs. Tan said than Kapitan House is Baba mix Chinese mix Malay restaurant and with the touch of western. Wow lets go there!. But the problem is we will never get back around 2 o’clock.
