Last Sunday was a day of celebration! My day started with a wedding at Blue Leaf, fort. My good friends Chi and Lyn tied the knot at that morning...with a very beautiful Christian wedding. Up until that time, I never knew that there is a new spot atthe Fort, housing Starbucks, Pancake House, Razon's and other restos...plus a school to boot! A promisng place indeed.
The ceremony was really touching as my friends exhanged their personal vows to eachother =) We moved on to the adjacent pavillion, where the celebration was held catered by The Mandarin Oriental.
They had this wonderful cupcake tower...of pink and mint green =) All the ladies in da haus got one! hahaha I didn't mine as I am not so hot over vanilla cupcakes and FROSTINGS (sorry) but my friends told me they were indeed very yummy!!!

come closer.....
We had a chinese lauriat luncheon....starting with cold cuts and the usual chinese platter of century egg slices, roast pork, roast chicken, seaweeds etc...
Shark'sFin Soup
This was interesting....like a hot prawn salad with mango custard in fried milk
I liked the prawns that were breaded and fried with a sweetish glaze...however, the mango custard in fried milk was kinda toomuch for me....
like a mango panacotta with mango bits deep fried with a thick batter coating. Kinda too rich and too oily tasting for me.
Steamed Garoupa
Deep Fried Taro Balls with Sweet Chili Sauce
The soft crusty fried exterior embraces a mix of minced prawns, pork and mashed taro. I like taro, so I enjoyed this dish =)
Kiampung Wrapped in Lotus Leaves
Like a big bad arse chinese machang sans the stickiness =) Yummy!!!Braised Mushrooms and Vegetables
Fried Duck
