#Frank’sTerrace

A long awaited catch-up with James @Frank’s Cafe

The seating upstairs helps in having a quiet atmosphere for knowing each other and catching up on many interesting things.

Having a great time sharing and discussing the plans for the future. Good to know a great person at work. ☕👥

#JuniperRestaurant&Bar

Enjoying the farewell team lunch for Sandeep and Andrew @Juniper Restaurant & Bar

Sad to see both of the buds leaving early but the hope around the possibility of working alongside one in near future and to easily catch up with other is helping to keep up the smile.

The food at this restaurant is delicious and service is amazing. Loved the ambience. The ‘Falafel Buddha Bowl With Haloumi Cheese’ is one of the best Falafel dishes I ever had.

Here is to two of the best I had the opportunity to work with! 🥗

#WindowsUpdate #BootLoop

Latest Windows update caused Dell XPS 15 to crash and go into boot loop – a common problem faced by vendors selling laptops with pre-installed Windows including Lenovo and HP.

This is the latest crisis faced by couple others at the office and resulted nothing less than replacing the laptop due to the unresolvable problem. Thankfully it was possible for me to retrieve the data with the help of tech support and transfer it to the new one. It is whole different process to recover the data from SSD.

The quote to remember from the technician –

I hope there are not many crazy programmers at Microsoft who will ship more such updates in the future causing more machines to break just because those machines weren’t shipped with single partition.

And an advice –

Always sync your data over an external drive or cloud storage.

It was sad to see such a powerful laptop studded with touch screen leave. 💻📁♻️

#MusashiJapaneseCuisine

A wonderful dinner to remember @Musashi Japanese Cuisine

This pending meetup after our return to Auckland gave us a chance to go outside, look around and have a breath of fresh air – first one for Sunshine after being bedridden for past week.

Spending quality time catching up with Stephen, first at home and then dining at one of the best Japanese restaurants in Auckland. Will be on our way back to home in sometime and that will be the time for a surprise to Stephen. 🍛🥗🥘🍲
