Spent last thursday afternoon to recce for our banquet. Been to Amara and M Hotel and spoke to the weddings coordinators there. Amara was more suitable cos M Hotel can only take up to 32 tables...which is definitely below our capacity needed. Amara can take up to 46, but out of which 10 tables will be at the adjacent room where guests sitting there won't be able to see our march in.
I personally preferred, or rather we both preferred Amara but felt that perhaps the coordinator is not giving us the best deal. Well, Ed & LY's friend is the other coordinator there and Hun will be contacting her to try to negotiate for a better deal...hehe....he's better at this than me...I can't bargain for nuts!!
However, we did manage to find a good deal for our engagemen dinner...Amara's in-house chinese restaurant called The Silk Road. It has a room that can hold up to 14 pax, and its a room, not just a partition. And it's the cheapest we've found so far!! Thank God! Not that we're cheapskate lah....but sometimes you really wonder if the food and ambience is worth the money you're paying...but for Amara, it's held in a hotel so there's a higher chance that the service will be better.
Afterall it's an engagement dinner! we wouldn't want the restaurants to be noisy with all the pling pling piang piangs of the plates....
In all, I can conclude that thurs was a rather fruitful day, thank God!
