Tonight I am invited to an ex-colleague's wedding dinner which is hosted at Fairmont Ballroom at Fairmont Singapore. There is a buffet of cupcakes and chocolates served during the pre dinner, along with soft drinks. The place is done up quite nicely and dinner is a 9 course chinese style. On the table setting, one will receive either a photo frame or a tea strainer. Both which I feel are quite useful.Imperial Cold Dish CombinationIt is a 5 dishes combination - Cereal Prawns, Deep Fried Spring Ro
Tonight I am invited to an ex-colleague's wedding dinner which is hosted at Fairmont Ballroom at Fairmont Singapore. There is a buffet of cupcakes and chocolates served during the pre dinner, along with soft drinks. The place is done up quite nicely and dinner is a 9 course chinese style.
On the table setting, one will receive either a photo frame or a tea strainer. Both which I feel are quite useful.
Imperial Cold Dish CombinationIt is a 5 dishes combination - Cereal Prawns, Deep Fried Spring Rolls, Marinated Octopus, Marinated Jellyfish, and Roast Suckling Pig. I am surprised to find roasted suckling pig here as it is seldom served these days during dinner being an expensive dish. The version served is quite crispy but feel that the layer of fat is a bit too much.
Canadian Lobster Meat Broth with Seafood and Fish MawThe soup tastes average.
Sauteed Scallops with Asparagus, Macadamia Nuts and Pine NutsThe scallop is quite huge and juicy. Served with crunchy greens and nutty nuts.
Roast Crispy Chicken served with Sweet WalnutAlthough it looks great, the meat is quite stiff and tasteless. Would prefer the skin to be crispier.
Braised Baby Abalone with Broccoli n XO Oyster SauceThe abalone is quite big and juicy despite being a baby one. Quite well braised and flavourful.
Steamed Pomfret, Teochew StyleThe fish is quite fresh and juicy. But the staff serving us lacks of the skill to cut the fish and has to bring back to cut before serving the dish again.
Stir-fried Prawns with Capsicum served with Mini Taro RingThe prawn is quite juicy. But the yam ring is lacking of the crispiness on the outside and soft texture inside.
Fragrant Rice with Red Dates and Diced Abalone wrapped in Lotus LeafThe rice is quite tasty and flavourful, with a hint of the lotus leaf taste.
Coconut Yam Pudding with Lotus Seeds and Gingko NutsThe dessert looks rather dry. The coconut milk looks like something that is straight out of a packet. Together it is a bad combination. Better to have it without the coconut milk.
Overall the food is average. The service is uneven as I could dropping sounds from the staffs around me from time to time.
