Marriage Is No Laughing Matter

Marriage central sponsored show, played by Selena Tan our famous dim sum dollies :)

Already bought my tickets, have you?

Make It Chicken McGrill Product Launch

Invites to Chicken McGrill product launch at Alocassia Mcdonald in Bukit Timah.

Menu relieving Mcd first ever four course almost gourmet dinner to be serve later.

Our first time attending Mcd product launch, it will be better if Razor TV camera is not right beside. I don't event dare to hold the burger with my hands or munch happily with my mouth open wide without the thought of footage might be uploaded to the Internet!

Waiting for dinner to be served. Mcd Alocassia should complain reception within their premises to our two biggest service provider, the husband and i cant call or surf facebook!

Together with all famous lifestyle and food blogger...

Mcd Marcom VP opening speech to kick start the night.

Our appetizer, fish corn quiche. Swiped up with ingredients that can be found in a typical Mcd kitchen. Guess what made up the fish in this quiche? It's our familiar fish O'filet!

2nd dish, the salad green. Again everything is made with ingredients from Mcd kitchen. Honestly this salad green is a little disappointing though we understand the chef wants to make this event a Mcd event rather than just a normal 4 course dinner a restaurant serve up. I was hopping for at least butter lettuce or rocket salad instead of burger lettuces :(

Highlight of the night, to be launch on 1st March.

The husband is making the comment saying they copied the concept of how Chinese wedding dinner is served in Singapore.

Dancing chef and crew, singing and cheering with the song they came out for Chicken McGrill.

Mcd introduce new ingredient to create Chicken McGrill. Love the teriyaki marinate, love the tender juicy chicken patty, love fluffy the sourdough bread. I am so sick of standard Mcd burger bread after chewing on them for over 20 years, so glad they are promoting a different range of bread selection like example this sourdough for McGrill and wholemeal for McBristo for their new burgers.

Old good Mcd french fries. Heard from one of the in charge that they will also launch a new flavor of shaker fries together on 1st March with Chicken McGrill.

Looking at my goodies bags, teehee!

The husband just wont stay still for me to shoot.

Looking at the menu for our dessert.

It's Mcd, it is a tradition to pair it with Coca Cola!

There comes our dessert, apple yogurt trifle. The chef put in an extra effort to the creation of bread croutons, they are actually made with the sourdough bread of Chicken McGrill. Love the idea that they add bites of crunchy apple and crouton to give it an extra texture, maybe i should feedback to Mcd for them to add in apple bits into their ice cream? :p
