CONGRATS TO THE DREAM TEAM!!
went down to the food and hotel asia`08 for the second time, this time with a much better purpose - support the dream team competing in the FHA Culinary Challenge Dream Team.
what can i say.. attractive presentation, great food, professional showmanship and excellent service. joined as underdog, ended with being the team to beat. good start for Temasek Culinary Academy. i guess all the hardwork and tiring trainings are all worthwhile.
im so proud of you, girls!
on another note, list of the 2008 top 100 restaurants in the world is out. well, iggy's slipped 17 places to 77th this year. nothing to be ashamed of, it just shows that other restaurants are improving much faster than us.
the world gourmet summit result is also out. congrats to les amis, best restaurant of the year.
so much has been said, comparing iggy's, ghunter's and les amis. but people didn't realised the different concept of each restaurant, be it cuisine, service, company's vision or others.. with great recognition comes great expectations. from guests, that is.
it sucks when you know people come to dine, expecting the best food and service, judging you right from the start, noticing every move you make, testing your product knowledge and how attentive you are. one error and that's it. they say you are not up to standard. well, thats the sad part.
when will people really learn to walk into a restaurant with an open mind, and be prepared to get blown away by the whole dining experience that the staff of the restaurant can offer? afterall, who are we to judge?
i still have so much more to learn.. haha.
till then..
