Amour Amour Amour

Rewind past all the holiday lazing around, enjoying the slow life part, at the start of my holiday, i got back from seremban 2 days before Valentine's.





The youth had launched a project to raise money for our church building fund, we are purchasing the shop lot beneath our current place. The idea was to host an elegant "Valentine's Dinner" for couples.


We were there the night before setting up tables, decorations, and because we were pulling resources from within the youth we had to count the number of cutlery's and plates and bowls was havoc! Imagine the amount needed for 18 tables, with 5 different courses each?


In the end with allot of help from adults who had experience working in the hotel industry and carzy team work, i dare say the even was a success!

For food we had Uncle Ngai, a professional chef who agreed to prepare a 5 course meal for us with the help of some mini chefs chosen from amongst the youth and w.a.h. l.i.a.o. w.e.i. t.h.e. f.o.o.d
