Blasting Night With Kumar @ 3 Monkeys Cafe

Can everyone believe it? I have never ever been to any of the stand-up comedy shows by Kumar! Oh well, where have I been to? Might be trapped in a bloody shell all this while!

So when girlfrens asked me along to the show (plus the fact that we are celebrating our gf's birthday), I was totally up for it!

So we reached 3 Monkeys around 8.15pm. Fyi, this happened on 23 March. Heh..Supposed to be a surprise for my gf, but she reached first! Nice surprise indeed, the other way round! ;p

Space is pretty cramped, and way too dark. They should place candles on the table or something, easier for customers to refer to the menu too. We were scrambling with our handphones in order  to read the menu. Can hardly read it and just ordered bluntly. ;p

And being a first-timer, I have no idea that there was a cover charge. No qualms about it, but I thought at least it should be placed somewhere upfront or the waitress should keep customers informed. That is basic right?

The show started around 8.10pm, by Kumar's partner-in-crime, Helda (I called her "the big fat lips" and got ticked off by my friend for that!, so Helda is her name I see. It was quite a dry start-up. Kept repeating the same jokes, and soon I was getting more restless, anxiously needed Kumar to light up the stage.

Kumar finally came on stage about 15 minutes later! Yay! And it was damn hilarious!

Didnt know there was 2 sets to his show with a break in between for customers, to go pee pee, or smoke breaks. So "considerate"! I loike! So time to cam-whore!

Kumar's jokes definitely enlightened me so much about life. Seriously, how he actually uses real life everyday incidents, or typical behaviour of each race in Singapore, relates totally well with the local context, is what makes him relevant! :)

I must give him an 8 for his show although I can't understand a quarter of it because I am a "freshie" but I still find it entertaining and worth the $20 cover charge.

Food-wise, nothing great. We order this seafood basket, buffalo wings, gfs ordered fish and chips, another ordered potato something and I ordered Catch-Of-The Day, which was the grilled fish with some black pepper sauce. 2 of us actually thought the food smell "fishy". Urrgghh, and we didnt  finish the whole lot. Would recommend you to eat elsewhere. Heh.. :)

And of course the night ended with a birthday cake for birthday gerl who has turned 25! :) No late night party..working the day after, bleurgghh..
