The is a lot of  rooms that can be used in The Majestic Hotel. One of the them is The Smoke House that has their own bar, grooming room, cigar room (there a lot of cigars there.. I’m sure there are not the cheapest davidoff cigars type), private dining area with a Chef on call, screening room and a card room. Although the place is exclusive, it is very comfortable and I can just imagine gentlemen conducting and closing deals here.

So I’ve written about The Majestic Hotel Grand Opening itself, let’s now blog about the food served that evening. I will break this post up into three parts since it was several courses ;)

Let me first say how beautifully decorated the ballroom was. I just love the table setup as you can see below.

When we arrived and seated at our table, The Classic Prawn Cocktail made of fresh shredded lettuce, chopped cucumber and spicy cocktail sauce was already waiting for us on the dining table. Yums! It was really delish!

This was closely followed by the Mulligatawny, a spiced peppery broth made of Indian spices and lentils. This tasted a little like “Soto” the thicker version.

I was invited by Emila to a “black tie” event yesterday and although I would have loved to dressed to the theme and leave my patagonia women’s better sweater home, I didn’t manage to find anything suitable at such short notice. So I did the best I can and came up with a semi suitable outfit, I guess. Luckily for us, the “media” people also didn’t dress up according to the theme as we were seated at the “media” table, we didn’t really feel that uncomfortable.

Not to self: Buy some nice and fancy stuff that I can wear to fancy event!

Will blog about the event and food, of course, in my coming post!

Cheerio…
