The last wedding dinner of 2012! Boy, I sound too excited about that. December seems to be the month for weddings, at least according to facebook updates. Hotels under the Holiday Inn Group is hardly impressive – the Orchard wing went under some refurbishment and is relaunched at Orchard City Center.
The usual folded napkin.
Cold Dish Combination
Roast suckling pig, lobster salad, breaded crab claw, drunken chicken, Japanese octopus
I loved the crispy roast suckling pig best though
it was served lukewarm. The rest are pretty much stuff that appear at
every other cold dish.
Braised Shark’s Fin Soup with Shredded Crabmeat
Crispy Pi Pa Duck
Steamed Black Cod ‘Hongkong’ Style
Braised Sliced Abalone with Spinach
Wok Fried Prawn with X.O. Sauce
Prawns bouncy like fishballs, methinks it’s the generosity of the chef with his dashes of bicarbonate.
Jade Broccoli with Shimeiji Mushroom in Brown Sauce
Braised Ee-fu Noodle with Straw Mushroom and Yellow Chives
Not to be outdone, this was the blandest that even pickled chillis could not revive.
Chilled Mango Cream with Pomolo and Pearl Sago
Did not stay for this sick-looking dessert.
They could have changed chefs – we had a food and
beverage manager making his rounds to check on our satisfaction. Sorry
dude, food was really too bland. There is just something about their
ballrooms – too pink maybe, that made the wedding
less of one.
Cute whiskey shot glasses as favours.

Nonetheless, congrats J and J!
