Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel


hi adeline, I had mine already.

Overall rating is so so.
The fish & noodle scored the highest.

They will provide a feedback form on the table.
Fill it up & your co-ordinator will discuss with u during the next meet up.

Did u all print your cards with Lil' art?
 
Hi CT, what fish did you ask for? seabass? Garoupa or Soon Hock? Both my mum and MIL didnt quite like to serve sea bass cos they said it's very cheap fish! not soo nice lor.. havent done food tasting yet and wonder if I shld upgrade to garoupa or soon hock..

havent contact Lil'art yet but think their rates not very attractive. hve you check out the rate with them? heard that "Hi-Tech" is quite reasonable.. think it's located at AMK

Hi Niuniu, when is your AD?

Hello Mist, am going this week! my AD is in Oct.
 
hi pinkdot, I had the same feeling b4 mine, but the seabass turned out delicious.
Of course, u can opt for better fish with additional cost lor.

Did not research on other printers, so went to lil' art.
 
Hello CT, can you advise did you also choose the sea bass with yellow beans? so how's lil'art service? is it expensive? did they have different paper materials to choose from for the insert?

thanks!!
 
sorry CT, last question, what kind of noodle did you select?

Yes, I'm using Lil' art for card printing.
How may cards did Mariott provide?

Did you chose the Ee Fu Mian and Wan Hao chicken?
Wat abt cold dish and dessert?

Btw, which theme u use and when is your AD?
 
hi pinkdot,

oh, no wonder lah... think we will call mark soon liao... need to check with him on some issues also.

heard hi-tech not bad, that time i call up and ask abt their prices liao.. ;p

hey CT,

you had food tasting already?? good... btw, i heard good comments for seabass with yellow beans. according to my menu, it's seabass with soya sauce. do you think i can change to seabass with yellow beans??? don't know got extra charge anot..
 
Hi Gals...u all taking Marriott weekday? ANyone changed or add additional dish to their weekday menu?

Hhmm...anyone have any idea if Marriott is going to add more themes or change themes soon?
 
Hi ladies,

I might be able to share some info.

1. My parents just went to a weekday dinner 2 mths ago. Food quite ok. They commended orange sauce ribs, shark's fins & crispy chicken. The rest so-so.
2. Upgrade fish from sea-bass to garoupa is $40 per table. Change soya sauce to yellow bean no extra charge coz fish still the same.
3. Heard they are still shortlisting new themes for 2005. So 2005 brides got the option to choose the current vineyard/oriental theme or the new theme if new themes are confirmed by their mgmt.

Hi pink-dot, my AD is next yr but didn't take Marriott eventually. Initially Marriott was my 1st choice, that's y I got a lot of info. If any ladies need info, I can try to help.

hi CT,

thanks for your info on the seabass.... okay, then i shall go and ask for it... that time, i ask my coordinator is there any other way to cook the fish besides from soya sauce, he say dun hv.... sigh... think he's really blur...

hi niuniu,

thanks for you info, it's useful. so where is your banquet?? decided already?
 
70% of tables. U?
The yellow bean one is nice.
The chicken also nice.
The rest of the dishes are ok. I choose the Jade1 menu.
Who is your co-ordinator?
YOur food tasting so late?
 
Hi CT
Thanks for sharing! will try the seabass with yellow beans before deciding if I shld upgrade to Garoupa.. FYI, my AD is also on Oct!

How much did Lilart charge you? are yours hot-stamping? Hitech is charging $0.35 per pcs, and mould at $80 (hotstamping).. if normal printing, then much cheaper..

back to dinner, will you be serving wine too?
 
CT,

Me too. They refused to gv me more cards.
sad.gif

I've just called and changed my fish fm soya sauce to yellow beans, for tomorrow. My menu is a mix fm menu 1 and 2.
Angela is my coodinator. U?
If the spare ribs not nice tomorrow, I will chg to chicken instead.

Will u be getting red wine fm Mariott?
 
hi gals, think std rates for printing, $0.50 per inserts.
Me lazy to research, so go with the recommended printer.
Hot stamping alot more ex.

Have not decided. Any recommendations to get good & cheap wine?
They charge u gals corkage?
 
of course they charge lah! no special privilage..

If we bring wine from outside, any additional charge besides the corkage?

Think will choose the beer & wine.
BTW, does pple still drink beer?
 
Hi ade & mist,

I gave up coz the planner wasn't that efficient in following up tho friendly. Then all the perks which was promised lapsed.
sad.gif
We were very upset & disappointed with the service so rather dropped them tho I love the ballrm, the location, food also quite ok (according to my parents) & of course the brand name.
 
niuniu,

oic .... they're gd when chasing for payments... hahahaha


CT,

aren't u getting wine fm Mariott?
btw, are you using your own songs to play thru out the dinner?
wat abt wedding flavours?
 
Hi Ade, Hi CT
Yes, they do charge corkages for external wines..
but try to negotiate with a package deal.. (like $$$ for XX bottles of wines) I forgotten how much my coordinator quoted.. will confirm and get back to you.

Pple still drink beer, and lots of it! hahaha, it's hard liquor that is not so popular now..
am also sourcing for wines.. plan to visit them this fri. will keep you gals posted if there's any good deal!

Am planning to change the wedding flavor. plan is to use back marriott's packageing (save $$$) but change the contents - to some sweets!! hahaha of course, got to source personally!
 
Hi pinkdot,

Looking forward to your wine lobangs and package offer by Marriott.

Hey, which theme are u using?
when is your AD?
 
Hi pinkdot, thanks for sharing!
Guess we can save on the +++ if we get wine from outside.
How is the corkage charges? Forgotten liao :p

I have the same thots about the wedding favours!
U got any unique favours in mind?
Maybe we can all share then can get better deal.
 
CT, there won be any corkage charge if u buy wine fron marriott list. corkage charge only applies when u bring ur own wine
happy.gif
 
Good new Adeline!
Confirmed already with Marriott, no corkage charge if we get wine fr Marriott.
Corkage charges is for wine we get externally.

Bugbear, U r rite. Thanks!
 
Thanks CT/ bugbear!! heng ah ....

So how much is red wine fm Mariott/bottle? any idea?

may i noe whether u folks onli chose own songs for march in and the rest selected by hotel themselves??
 
Adeline, me forgot how much is their wine liao...but after ur food tasting tonight, can feedback to us ur comments on each dish? i am it's an exciting dinner for u :p
 
enjoy your sumptuous dinner!

Don't know about songs thingy.
Will try to choose more songs lor.
Will check with Marriott during next meeting.
 
Hi CT, hello Adeline
not sure which theme i'll be using, most probably, a mixture of both! haha
My AD is Oct..

Their cheapest wine cost ard S$25 but not sure how does it taste like.. understand we can do wine taste shld we decided to buy direct from hotel.. tomorrow am going to visit the dealer.. they shld be able to do consignment basis (returnable).

I do hve lots of ideals on wedding favors.. a transparent plastic sq box with sugar coated almond.. cookies in self-sew organza pouch etc..
but usually packaging is already expensive, so i thot using back the box Marriott is providing but change the content lor. think 5 sugar-coated almonds are nice as it represent health, wealth, fertility, happiness and long life.. the bitterness of the almond in the sugar coating also represent an impt part of te wedding vow - for better, for worse- and thus the guest symbolically honoured the marriage!
 
Hi pinkdot,

where are u getting the sugar coated almonds?



Hi Bugbear,

To us, onli the fish with yellow bean is good! Rest of the dishes are of average standard.
I find the orange sauce ribs, shark's fins, red bean desert and Ee Fu mian not so nice last nite, as compared to those I had tried b4 during wedding dinner. heehee.
Wonder if I shld chg to Almond creme and crispy chicken instead.
 


hi ladies,

i thought the cheapest wine is $22+++??? i went back to take a look and saw that leh....

hi pinkdot,

you got lohbang for wine huh?? do you think we shd combine and buy? maybe can get better price?? ;p

hi adeline,

the food tasting not nice huh??? i guess hotel's food is usually average loh..
