This would only be pictorial.... Ok I'm lying! Can't resist the tempation to criticize food... Anyway, was at Lisbeth and Colin's wedding reception last night, which was held at the ever-popular Promenade.. Can't say much about the hotel as I used to frequent the place a lot for gym or for food (that was almost an oxymoron!).
The newlyweds... Kissing on stage, with the parents looking, along with hundreds of guests.. (Cricket Chirp) I bet that was awkward!
Starters - Hot and Cold Combination.... Aaaa... average.
Food entry presentation was boring though. Can't people come up with something new?!
Soup - Fish Maw and Scallop - aaaa.... Average..
Barbequed Chicken with Garlic and Sweet Dip/Spiced Salt - YUMM!!!
Steamed Garoupa in Supreme Soya Sauce - I think supreme soya sauce spoiled the fish! It overpowered the sweetness of the fresh fish, plus our fish was oversteamed, evident here from the peeling skin.. Plus the fish looked grotesque, so I took the opportunity to take a photo from this angle, so that it might remind you of a zombied corpse on a table..
Sliced Beef with Black Pepper Sauce - I think the name should be 'Black Sliced Beef in Pepper Sauce'.. What's with the colour? Every bite reminds me of the time I had to take charcoal pills..
Deep Fried Buttered Prawns - Presentation was nice, portioning good, taste was good, but selection of prawn size is questionable.. Some prawns were merely shrimps! Plus I counted and there were a lot of prawn heads rather than the actual prawn itself..
Braised Tao Pau with Bamboo Weeds - My absolute favourite... WHY? Because when it came out, it looked like a dog just barfed over our vegetable. Dear Chef, please don't over 'sauce', especially with ingredients that are slippery and slimy as they absorb more fluid and take on wierd shapes.. The taste was good, but several people on my table refused to try it because it looked disgusting..SIGH
Curry Fried Rice with Chicken Meat and Prawns - Have we run out of ideas? Curried Fried Rice? Come on! Enough Said..
Anyway, rather than being progressively disappointed with the food, I diverted my attention to my friends as they were equally making fun of each other... :P

Its Chinese style menu eh? Congrats to them. Make sure nanti ko ambik gambar biar cukup "karan". Its help to enhance the photo colors. Okay boss?
Ala, camera digital biasa ja ba, lagipun photo taken without flash so kena main sikit sama ISO.. Karan semestinya cukup pasal camera charge tiap2 malam.
Kalau pakai flash kan, selalu macam makanan yg baru kuar dari freezer, and since it's close up, lagi la susah. Ada juga saya cuba, lama2 give up.
