Winterlicious 2

Horizons Restaurant in CN Tower
Spectacular view from the restaurant's window :)
The first time I heard about Winterlicious was when Jon told me he dined in Horizon Restaurant (last year), and I was so jealous :P
This year, it's my turn to try out!
(Aunt caught me taking pictures of Everything lol)
(Aunt's friend came in the restaurant and said that the restaurant would rotate later [she thought we were dining in the 360 restaurant which is located on another floor of CN Tower, and that restaurant is constantly rotating so customers get to see a 360-degrees-view from the windows], then we told her that we were in Horizons, not 360 -_-)
 
[side-story: Something annoyed me...
When we got into the elevator that took us up the Tower, there was this group of kids and their parents, taking the elevator with us.
And one of the kids (boy, around 8 years old) talked to the CN Tower staff, who's responsible for taking the guests up the tower.
He said "I'm soooo sorry for you, having to travel up and down the tower so many times a day without doing anything." (SO rude!)
That staff was a little embarassed, and gave him a "standard" answer "No, I love this job, I get to meet amazing people everyday, and admire the gorgeous view from the elevator (the door of the elevator is a clear glass)."
The boy went on "And I hate your manager! he makes you stay here in the elevator and do nothing! I hope you'd get promoted, so that you could do something! Do something for your life!"
I almost shouted out "Shut up KID!"
You know Nothing about this job, you know Nothing about how hard it is to find a job.
Neither do you know this person's plan!
I HATE people who judge/comment/look down on others while they really know NOTHING.
Pissed off :(
Hope that staff didn't get too upset.
(This reminded me of my other aunt, who used to give me so much advice, e.g. "you should go to XYZ professional school, or ABC grad school, you should be a XXX in the future, good pay... blah blah blah."
Hey you know nothing about what I wanna do with my life.
Thanks for your concern but I don't need your advice. -_-
(P/S but I still love her.) ]
 
First time to have lunch beside a breath-taking view.
Could see Lake Ontario, Center Island and a small airport from here!
(The lighting wasn't perfect for taking pics... the sun's shining bright outside ^^)
(dining in the air! As if we're on a plane! because of this, I felt like some of the foods tasted like those provided on planes lol MUCH better versions of those of course.
This could be a romantic place to dine in (if I have the special someone with me lol).

THE FOOD:
Pumpkin soup
(I was about to order a salad but my aunt didn't allow me to lol she said eating salad is just like eating grass -_-)
The amazing main course! stuffed chicken :)
so tender (glad that it wasn't chicken breast), and it's stuffed with my favourite mushrooms!
Close-up of the stuffing:
 
Although it looks kind of like trash in this photo lol, I swear it's really good!
 
Another main course:
Not sure what this is called... there were two kinds of fish, in a cream sauce.
but there's no carbs lol (just like eating a pasta sauce alone -v-) But my aunt loved it so much.
(pieces of fish)
 
Best dessert:
Chocolate Lava cake :) yum...
Although I only had one bite of it (coz it's aunt's plate), I call it the most delicious plate of the meal!!
*missing the Lava cakes my sister and I made last summer >_< they were equally tasty!
pumpkin cheesecake
Really good too!
 
Overall, this restaurant's very impressive, we shall return :')
 
The view:
The surface of the lake's so sparkly <3
(Center Island covered with snow)
 
Glass floor:
 Not too interesting as I had already been here before :)
(The daddy was holding his tiny baby over the glass floor lol I can't handle this kind of cuteness >v< 
No offence, but why are white babies the cutest (in my eyes)?
They have those big, bright-coloured eyes and long, curled lashes that win everyone's heart <3 omg)
 
Hope that tomorrow's lunch would be as good as today's, or even better!
Can't wait!
(NEED to go  to the gym this week to burn off all that fat!
I usually don't eat till I'm 100% full for each meal, but I just did :S)
 
P/S wore make-up today and my aunt asked me whether fake lashes can be used more than once, I told her "Sure, but I'm not wearing fake lashes now."
And she's surprised as she found my lashes looked so much longer today!
Thanks to kiss me mascara! I have never got any comliments on my lashes and I just did because of this awesome product :D lol
