You are the reason…

This beautiful song was the choice for the grand entrance of the bride and groom…

…my paternal cousin’s daughter and her hubby, at their wedding reception…

…at one of the leading hotels in town last Sunday evening…

…the 23rd of December. Of course, many of my next-of-kin from my father’s side of the family were there to share the joy on this auspicious occasion.

Dinner started with the sio pua (hot plate), our more-than-four Four Seasons…

…and the dishes served that evening included this fish…

– I believe it was cod and chicken…

– roast and served with Thai chili sauce. I did not take snapshots of all the dishes but yes, there were prawns…

…too and the fried Chinese pancake…

…and a fruit platter for dessert.

The food was good but the Chinese pancake paled in comparison to the one here or here. However, I must say that the service would beat all the rest hands down. The waiting staff would go round and round the whole night, filling the glasses of drinks non-stop and of course, I was pleased that the one assigned to our table did not forget that I was having plain water and not 7-Up or Sprite. I thought the one here was quite good, better than the other two but this one was definitely a cut above all of them. They should come here and have a look so they would be able to improve the service at their banquets in future, all those wallflowers that they hire part-time.

Congratulations once again, Michelle & Kim Seng, may God bless the two of you with abundant love and joy in the years ahead and congratulations also to the proud and happy parents, cousin Jimmy and Lily…

Thank you so much for the invitation. Cheers!!!
