"猪"事顺利,青春永"猪","猪"圆玉润,"猪"笼入水 - Pullman Miri Waterfront CNY 2019 (Year of Boar)

Chinese New Year is only less than 24 hours to go and everyone is busy with many final touch up and last minute cleaning. The most important part of the year is always the reunion dinner. No Chinese family would wish to miss one of the member for this important event. It represents the unity of the family. Gathering of the far (if there is) and near and definitely the reunion of the all family members once a year on this very table.

Knowing the importance of such meaningful event, Pullman Miri Waterfront had always tried to make the night a memorable one. This year, the year of Boar, they are lifting the mood to a very classical, all red decoration that all Chinese will definitely enjoyed dining in. 


Yee Sang tossing is a Malaysian culture where all diners will gather and start tossing for good wishes. It is always a kick start for every dinner that hoping the upcoming year will be great, good and smoothly run for everyone. It is believed that the higher you toss the better it gets. So ladies and gentlemen, stretch your arm out. 


A few close up shot during our gathering and this is definitely what you will also get when dining in during the reunion dinner night which is on 3rd February 2019 (Monday) - tomorrow is the day thou. 😎

Appetizers & Dessert Corner



年糕(nian gao) or better known as Kuih Bakul is one of the must have in all Chinese family. It has the symbolism of raising oneself in each coming year as the Chinese word "gao" means tall. 









Mandarin orange is also the must have CNY food and weirdly it is also only available during this festive season. 


Sweet Tooth Corner





There's variety spread that you would definitely indulge in. Pullman Miri Waterfront not only invited their business partners, they also invited children from Tudan Methodist Home to join the special occasion. 红包 (hong bao) or also known as ang pow is given to these kids which is a small token from the hotel.


Put your hands together for this beautiful team and people who work restlessly to get everything in place for this Chinese New Year.



Dear beloved friends, please be home for this Chinese New Year. Be grateful with people you still get to see and spare time with. Some may not even get to reunite due to certain circumstances. I do not mean to drag the mood down BUT just reminding that loved ones is always worth making time for. Wait no more and book your seats if you haven't did. Below are the details for your reference. 


鼠年兴,牛年壮,虎年猛,兔年强,龙年飞,蛇年祥,马年奔,羊年放,猴年高,鸡年升,狗年旺。十二生肖少一个,猪年大发贺新年!

Camera

I just love photography although I know that I don't have a great skill. I am still learning and of course it is my hobby and also I had passion in it. Since I was back from Miri, more or less I had been addicted to DSLR which I saw most of them carrying. It is not about showing off but instead getting a better camera for better capturing and learning of photography. I had look into few brand like Canon, Nikon, Sony and also Panasonic. There is too much choices, too many varieties which makes me hard to make up my mind. Every each of it seems to be good for a newbie and noob like me but with the cash I had and limited budget I can only get something that is affordable in my price list. Besides that taking a prosumer camera or DSLR is still a deep thought for me. Many of my pros friend in DSLR or in photography had suggested me few brands which I find them useful too but instead I am more attracted to this current model Canon PowerShot SX200 IS . The function, usefulness and user fr...
