Hi all,
Thanks to those who have feedback to me on the wedding cards.
Anyone went for food tasting or have tried their food before? My friend just went there for wedding dinner and commented that the some of food items were horrible, like for e.g. the sharkfin soup and the red bean dessert and other dishes which I can't remember. Anyone who have tried their food before, can comment which item is good or not good??? What dessert is good to replace their standard red bean dessert?

Hi Goodluck
I have just went for food tasting few weeks ago. The food is okie, or rather I would say good. My "tasters" aka my family and my in-laws all feel that the food is nice and pretty large portion. We asked the chef will the AD be the same standard and portion. He said yes. eg. the prawns will be approx 1kg (regardless of size).
I have personally attended a banquet at PB. The food was okie lei. In fact, the sharksfins served during the food tasting and that banquet was good lei, very thick and tasty.

Hi Bao Bao
1) Sauteed Japanese dried Scallops with broccoli in brown sauce
Taste : Good.
Look : Shredded scallop with broccoli in thick oyster sauce.
2) Sauteed Live Prawns in 'Szechuan' Style -
Taste : Good.
Look : Prawns (shelf-less) in sweet sauce.
3) Steamted (BLACK) Groupa With Black bean soya and orange peel
Taste : Average.
Look : Whole fish (got head, got tail) in special sauce.
Additional remarks : Has a bit of the "mud" smell. But with the sauce, can cover up a bit. Unless you wanna change the fish to red groupa (better fish) but must top up, I think $40 per table.

Hi all,
Sorry to cause alarm to all. I'm just trying to find out too if it is true about the food there, especially those who already had their wedding there or had attend their dinner. The food tasting may taste good but may not be so on the actual day since they cook in bulk ! My friend specifically say the sharkfin soup is too watery and can't see any sharkfin. The red bean dessert was so-so only.

Hi garfield,
yeah, from what i know only VIP tables have gold sash on every chair. the rest no sash, only covered with a piece of cloth. i believe will need to pay as informed by other brides earlier on...
i've been to one of my friend's weeding at PP before too, and the sharks fins good!! but i agreee that the red bean dessert is really not that fantastic... too bad they dun serve 'oni' hehe

hi laine,
welcome to this thread... think if you have 25 tables, it shldn't be a prob for you to get OB exclusively for your use... speak to your coodinator... at most, they'll ask you to top up a certain amt per table to change certain dishes (as well as to meet the min. sales required) to let u have the entire OB to yourself...
btw, when will ur AD be? will it be on a weekend? if so, better work fast....!

Hi feroy
Thanks for the advice.
Yes, shall have to ask Johnny abt it. Still waiting to receive the soft contract from him.
My AD is on a saturday in Nov05.. haha still long long way to go.
Thot we were being super KS to be looking for hotel, but when we called PP, Johnny actually told us that we were second in the 'queue'.
Thankfully, the couple in front of us gave up the date to choose another.

Low ceiling gives you the cosy feeling. Hanging things on the ceiling is not advisable cos it will make it feel castrophobic. And brings more attention to it. The Zen2 decor is romantic.
Personally I dont like high ceiling cos it's very echoic (cutlery sounds)
Qing, food tasting normally 2 months prior to AD.

Hi Chel

Besides booking the hotel, have you started on anything else?
Wonder when must we start like looking for bridal studios and stuff...
