My Sold.sg Valentine’s Day Charity Dinner Date at Limoncello Italian Restaurant
Last week, I blogged about an auction on Sold.sg to bid for a Charity Valentine’s Dinner Date with me to help The Spastic Children’s Association of Singapore (SCAS) (link here). On Thursday, 16th February, I finally met the winner of the auction, errorbid, who “won” me for a dinner that is jointly organized by Omy.sg and sponsored by Limoncello Italian Restaurant. Including the $45 and the tokens purchased for bidding, I have raised $270 for SCAS and I am very happy to do my humble part for this charity auction.

On my way to the dinner, I was very curious who was “errorbid” as I seriously have no idea who was she or he. A lot of friends asked me about it too and would I still go out for dinner if the winner is a guy. Would that be awkward? Nope, it won’t be as the 10 bloggers and their auction winners were split into smaller groups for a group date dinner. Over at my table, there was me, Joanne-Marie Sim (in green dress) and William Tan (white shirt on the right) with our auction winners.
Singapore Tourism Board Heralds the Year of the Dragon with Anthony Bourdain in New York City
A few days ago, Singapore Tourism Board (STB) invited one of my favourite author & TV personality, Anthony Bourdain to a private media luncheon at Michelin-starred Laut restaurant in New York City. The purpose of this event is to unveil new destination developments and attractions for 2012 and beyond. Singapore’s Ambassador to the U.N., Albert Chua was also present as Bourdain recounts his personal stores and adventures of Singapore’s vibrant culinary scene.

How apt of Laut to serve up a specially-created menu with favorite dishes hand-picked by STB and Bourdain – including Singapore laksa and Hainanese chicken rice. Other popular local dishes with multi-cultural influence were served such as beef rendang (a rich and tender coconut-based beef stew); rojak (a fruit and vegetable salad mix); and kuih dadar (a crepe flavored wrap with pandan juice and stuffed with grated coconut steeped in palm sugar).
