I tried this plate of mixed grill for 2 at Seven Seas Restaurant under a promotional price of $30 which is a 3 course meal. The serving is really huge and MEATY! Comprises of 4 types of meat: Chicken, Beef, Pork and Mutton. The mutton would be nicer if it is not that cooked but overall I find it worth the price.

Took using mobile phone.

Tasted more like carrot cake to me, maybe the cheese is just in the sauce.

Attempted full manual settings and focusing on my old pentax takumar 500mm f4.5 toy. It's super tough to manual focus and on top of that keep adjusting the settings whenever light changes as the object moves about.

Was pleased with this photo (considering full manual).

Should have bought burgers from BK, they look nicer to photograph. Anyway this is $2 burger from my place's coffeeshop.
