Halloween 101 - nothing scary about it....

I learnt a valuable lesson from halloween this year, and that is that if you give an idea freedom, it truly does find its own wings.
My amazing staff were given the freedom to create much of the Halloween buffets themselves...I gave them support in consultation, decoration, tips and ideas, but essentially they were free to do whatever they wanted...and they made me extremely proud.

I love being amazed and our resident Cupcake Princess "Thei" did me so proud by creating even concepts I had not considered....who knew that white chocolate on the back of a demarle mould makes the perfect MUMMY' s face...

And Agnes Lim and Trixie Fuentes all worked hard on our Escolta buffet and Afternoon Tea, to make an incredible array of scarey but truly delicious food.

Events that last just 24 hours can be incredibly stressful within a busy kitchen, thankfully my amazing staff made the day fun, effortless and a learning educational experience for us all...
Nothing scary about that....
