Manulife Gala Night!
Once in a year Gala Night! Also known as awards and recognition night. This year our Gala night was held at Ritz Carlton hotel. This was my first time dressed in black tie for functions. Black tie meaning a dress code for formal evening events. I had earlier thought that everyone had to wear a black tie! Haha!
Balloons at the entrance. A lot of people took pics with them!
Interesting small bites before we enter our ballroom. Small duck meat inside this cube.
Ritz Carlton grand ballroom is really big. Think good place for wedding if you had planning for at least 50 tables haha!
Menu. Looks like a lot of dishes. Each dish was nicely cut and served each a plate. But i would say the food was not as good as i expected from this hotel. Minus marks for the bones in the fish and chicken meat too.
Our napkins and hand claps. Nowadays everywhere use hand claps and whistle, no need to clap until hands swollen.
The first dish finger food tasted ok.
Sotong, soft and tender. Not bad.
Eeek i hate fish served with bones. Many bones. Why cut the fish and left the bones?
Chicken with bones anyone?
Dessert was sweet except for the bits of seeds remained in the red dates.
One memorable moment was when this old man stood on the stage and shared with us his pride and gratification on his job. 86yr old agent from Hong Kong Manulife. Power. This is a life long career for him and it inspired me alot. To achieve my career goals and help people to achieve financial freedom.
