Food Tasting for Dinner

Jeng jeng jeng.....if u were given a chance to taste meals at the hotel, will you go if you're on diet? Me? It happened to me last nite. And I ate, not sampled the food! In conjunction with Majlis Makan Malam PTD Muda on this coming Sunday, I and a few other committee members went to JW Marriot KL to finalise the menu, and to give comments on foods that will be served during the dinner.

Total cost is about 140++ per head. Alang-alang makan kat hotel kan, free pulak tu, aku tolak tepi la dulu usaha diet aku. Huhu...actually the dinner will be held for the prupose of showing appreciation towards the president, Tan Sri Aseh Che Mat. He'll be retiring soon. Besides, the dinner is the time to get around with friends, and to create networking among PTD Muda members.

After we were done with committee meeting in Putrajaya, time to shoot to Marriot KL. The traffic was not that heavy that time. Thank God, I and Liew Li Ching (Ah soh...soli aaaa i guna nama cine u...) managed to get there on time. Normally I will use public transport to go to Bukit Bintang area, this time driving....kiranya tercangak jugak la nak mencari tempatnya.

Reason of food tasting? I won't be able to makan it this coming Sunday. So, makan first la! Since this is food tasting session, no protocol needed. Hantam saja laa....nak ketuk sudu ka, nak berdentum pinggan ka...lantak pi lah. Sapa pun tak tengok. Kalau salah gelas pun takpa...(kan Ah Soh kannnnnn?)

Nama makanan tu memang canggih manggih. Biasa la fine dining kan. Memang la macam tu. Nothing to worry. Masuk mulut sama je. Burp...kenyang siot. Alhamdulillah. Kalau tak kerana percuma, takde la aku nak merasa makan macam ni. dalam mimpi je la kot. Maklum la kan, dengan gaji ciput ni, mampu ke?
