Marv won a pair of seats to a dinner with Kylie Kwong at the Mandarin Oriental. If you didn't know, she's the host of the Discovery Travel & Living's upcoming new show 'Kylie Kwong: My China'.
So the dinner was yesterday night. I honestly did not expect that there were so many other winners. But my gawd, there were alot! There were still tables in the ballroom that were empty though.. about 3 I think.
Anyhow, God really blessed us that last night. Cause we were originally placed at table 13, which was right at the back. Yeah I know.. that sucked.
But then while we all introduced ourselves, a staff member came to our table and told us that we're being moved up to the front.. to table 7! And it gets better. Table 7 is right behind table 1, which is the VIP table where Kylie sits! OMG!!!
Okay. The night started off with a trailer for Kylie's new show. Then she came out, introduced herself and the show, and talked about her experiences will filming it. There's even a book with recipes and photos from the show, which was our door gift. Damn nice eh?
This dinner is a 9 course one. All the dishes served are from Kylie's show and the book, except for the beef one which is the hotel's signature dish. The food's really good! Really simple, but good all the same. Oh! And we got to drink Moet sparkling wine. Delicious!
All in all, it was an awesome night. Really wonderful to get the chance to meet her. Thanks Marv for winning the seats. LOL.
Oh btw, as you can see, I didn't post any photos. Malas la.. hehe. But you can go to Marv's blog for the night's photos. He has them all up. Okay? Okay.
Darren out.
