Food Tasting at Holiday Inn Atrium 27-10-07

we had our food tasting today at HIA... reached HIA at around 12.40pm... went to MotionImage 1st to pass them the photos, in order for them to do the montage for me.. but due to some photos which resolution were too small, i had to dig out some pics in hard copies and had to make another trip down to pass it to them...

went to meet our coordinator at around 1pm.. went into the Xin Cuisine,and waited for our food tasting dishes... which started at around 1.30pm...1st dish was this combination platter.. which has a glowing candle.. quite nice man.. having diff colours...

had all the 8 dishes... no much comments abt the dishes,as they tasted great... Bro n Bong liked the dessert.. the rice dumpling! the prawns were great too... very fresh n Q...

overall, we had good comments on the food.. initially i was thinking to change the Ee-fu noodles... but just now when we tasted it, not bad eh... i went to several wedding dinners, and their Ee-fu noodles were just ok... HIA's much better...

The steamed soon hock was a big fish! the chef said it's around 1kg... he assured me that on our AD, the fish will also b that big.. it surprised most of us, as when we go eat, the fish were always small.. but HIA's portion is big... n it's very fresh... though Bro said that the preserved vege dun really match well with the fish...

We didn't ask to change any dish.. as all of them nodded their heads that the food are all good... actually asked the chef is there's any other choices for the dessert.. but all so common, Bro said dun take.. he told me,it's ok just that it might b too full as a dessert... but those sago,n other common desserts dun interest me at all... they think that the red bean is a bit too sweet.. but the dumpling is super nice... so,we just asked him to make sure that the dessert isn't too sweet that day.. n he jotted it down our points too...

After the food tasting, we went to our ballroom n took a look at their layout, as there's a wedding dinner tonight.. we brought our CDs along to try it out... Ivan brought us to Seletar ballroom to take a look at the new theme, Copper theme... not bad, it's a new theme... Ivan said he'll take a pic of the theme n will send it to me.. then will choose the theme n wedding favours we want in Dec... i quite like it, so most prob will take the copper theme! favours wise, we like 1 of the favours... it's a secret... on my AD, then u see for yourself!
