Been lagging with the posting as I was busy & tired with community newsletter, accounts, events, meetings & also GSS shopping for the family.

As there was road closure around the Padang area for the 45th NDP rehearsal, committee VC Pete & I together with YT Z9 RC members took the MRT down to City Hall & walked over to Suntec City Convention Centre for the PA Grassroots Convention & Appreciation Dinner. After security check, we took our seats at Table 389 & had our tea. There were speeches, sharing of success stories, GRLs pledge & song. It was very cold inside the hugh hall & request for hot water took a very long long time to come. I was shivering & great thanks to Fu for lending me his jacket.
Finally dinner was served, starting with a very COLD dish. Overall I had enjoyed the programme & food (pix below) skipping the king prawn (sensitive skins). After a giant cake-cutting ceremony, there was a preview of PA 50th Musical `Fried Rice Paradise' to be shown in Esplanade. Each committee & attendee went home with a PA 50th Anniversary Commemorative Book. Read in Sunday Times the next day that this book, @ $50, is available at all major bookstores or at CC from Jul 15.
Crabmeat & Fish Maw Broth (sharkfin discouraged)
Shitake & Broccoli w Crabmeat Roe Sauce
Baked Miso Brushed Silver Sea Perch
The last dish is my favourite, Chilled Mango with Pomelo.
