Wedding Bells Ringing at Mandarin Oriental, Singapore



Today, I went to attend my dear cousin’s wedding at the abovementioned hotel. It was a 7-course lunch affair! We started off with ‘Lobster & Prawn Cocktail served with seafood roll', followed by 'Shark’s Fin double-boiled with chicken & conpoy', 'Scallop stir-fried with XO sauce & served with deep-fried yam apple', 'Whole Duck roasted with in-house special sauce', 'Cod Fillet baked with teriyaki sauce', 'Ee-Fu noodles braised with shredded mushrooms & chives' and completed with a westernized sweet delight, ‘Hazelnut Royaltine.’ I thought the dessert was an unusual complement to the preceding 6 Chinese dishes.


On top of that, each guest received either a heart-shaped paperweight or a metal ruler (with the words ‘Love Rules’ inscribed on it) for a souvenir. Quite unusual gifts too, compared to the prevalent ones such as wedding cakes, chocolates or miniature glassware! These 2 unique highlights of the event caused such a stir in my brain to pen it down right away. This is what I called an ‘unusual yet unique unification.’ To round it up, I hereby wish the couple eternal bliss and many offsprings to come!
