As a delicious prelude for the feast that was to come, 40 VIPs, foodies, and members of T.Dining Society indulged in fine champagne and a steady succession of divine canapés at the well-appointed Crystal Villa overlookin­g the impressive­ly gilt City Of Dreams complex.

Guests hobnobbed and mingled as an accordioni­st played charming tunes until they were invited down to the recently redesigned The Tasting Room helmed by newly-appointed Chef de Cuisine, Frederic Thevenet. Here, a four-course dinner meticulous­ly matched with remarkable vintages, was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

The lovely host for the evening, Ingrid Chua, introduced the highly accomplish­ed Thevenet as well as the City of Dreams VIPs, namely Michael Ziemer and Kevin Benning.

Since the reimaginin­g of NÜWA hotel’s contempora­ry fine dining French restaurant, this particular multi-sensory experience certainly made it one for the T.Dining books.
