And so... the dinner at Magellan Sutera was held at the Rose Garden Dining room. 13 tables and 1 for spare. I was in charge of the attendance (last year too) and doing the table seating was quite a politic on its own. Who to seat with whom... who can mesh well with anybody...who can't sit with who...

Anyhoo... Set out from Sierra around 6.10pm. Sempat qso on the handy with a few colleagues while criss-crossing the traffic and arrived safely at Magellan's and lady luck provided me with a parking at the first row. Misty rain had started by then.

What costume did i put on this year? Sigh...i had thought of wearing some sleeveless black thingy with some black puffy semblance of flower petals on the front and pair that with black pants. But... the theme was Raya. With decorum in mind, I resorted to wearing a blue kebaya of mine with selendang in the side.. tia pa lah.

This was the menu. Very sedap. Which is why I am

glad I joined the food tasting/testing. If not..

the assorted cold dish

I had gotten up to take pics of the attendees and when I got back to the table

less than 5 mins later... All gone!!

There is no pic of the KingPow Chicken because the same

thing happened. Ni la.. duduk sama godoot people...

Sechzuan Soup ( I liiiike..)

This pic of this delicious steamed fish was actually taken
from the next table. The fish at my table was literally attacked! Nasib
partner tolong sauk sikit.

the mushroom with kailan.

yumm...sadap...

If I weren't so full with laughter, I'd gobble this up too. I didn't take any pics of
the dessert because my camera habis battery.

Friends at the table, it's been fun sitting with you all, but eating with you all
was quite exasperating. Fun but exasperating.

I won one of the 80 lucky draws that night!! A 4 meter kain that I will make into a sweet baju kurung later on. All the members in Table 11 won a prize save for Pata. HEkekekek...

I wouldn't mind being an AJK for next year's Annual dinner. Can go for free food tasting again...(not a cheap freebie hogger... just so that during the actual night, I don't have to
embarass myself and makan like there's no tomorrow..)
