Hard Rock Cafe

Sometimes in Dubai, when we feel very sian and no place to go.. we will go and eat somewhere nice...

The last time we went to Hard Rock Cafe was quite some time back lor... cos the band sucked and we really go there for the music. As a result of that, we did not go back there again for a long long time...

The other day, we were feeling bored and Max suggested Hard Rock Cafe.. by then, we had sort of forgotten about the lousy band.. and so I said OK as well :)

 Decided to order our all time favourite:)

 And also try something new...

 Ace giving me a funny face when I said I wanted to take a photo of him...

 Well done, Hard Rock Dubai... served Max a mustard that no matter how hard he squeezed, nothing came out! Then he opened the cap and tadah! They did not even remove the sealed plastic! wahahahaha

 Ace showing off his chocolate shake moustache:)

Pleasantly surprised to see that the old band is back and they are good!:) Or maybe it is because I now listen to radio.. hahaha.. so I can related to both the OLD SONGS and the NEW SONGS that they sing... they say quite a large amount of new songs that night because there was a group of students from German International School.... And I guess this means Ace also enjoys himself lah...

But midway  into our dinner while waiting for the second set by the band, Ace says that he has stomachache... but since he was not in extreme pain, we figured we could just distract him and hang around longer... and so, Max came up with the idea of playing charades with him.

Ace is a very poor guesser and a poor actor... wahahahaahha :) Some of the things that are easy to guess, he will take a long time to guess or act.... He still doesnt understand the game totally and resorts to spelling the words.. wahahaha

Anyway, while playing.. somehow, Max and Ace started a conversation about whether he believes in the death sentence.

Initially when Max asked if Ace believed in the death sentence and think people who commit bad crimes should be put to death, Ace said that everyone should be given a second chance.

Then Max put this preposition across. He asked Ace what he thought and what will he do if say someone came and shoots me and killed Max, how would Ace feel... will he give that person a second chance?

Ace froze... and then told us, "If it happens to other people, I will give him a chance. If it happens to me though, I will want to shoot the person and let him die."

Max says that if he only gives a chance if the crime is committed against someone else, then it means he believes in the death sentence and does not really believe in second chances...

I explained to Ace that if he killed and shoots the person, he is no different from this person. Also, shooting the person is not helpful to the whole situation since no one becomes better from it and the dead also cannot be brought back to life..

And since we are talking about this, I took the chance to talk to him about restorative justice... and how it works. But Ace is not interested... he just kept repeating that he will shoot the guy if the guy kills us... wahahahahaha :) I will perhaps try to explain to him again when he is older...
