Sayang, I’m taking a break. Kylie’s cooking tonight.

Tags: , , , , ,

How often do you get dinner cooked by a celebrity chef, for free?

Well, 3 lucky Yahoo! Answers winners (and their partners) were invited to wine and dine at Mandarin Oriental Hotel in KL on 10th June 2008. All they did was to answer Kylie’s question on where she could find the best seafood in Malaysia and why is it so special to them. The 3 best answers were chosen by Kylie and in return, a mouth-watering meal for the three users!

Here are some of their comments about the dinner that night.

Tigeripoh4301 -That was a truly wonderful evening on the 10th June. Ms. Kylie Kwong’s elaborations on her many trips to China in preparation for this really great book and some details she gave on the conservation aspects of fish / mussel / squid farming, I hope, were well noted by the audience. An impressive evening and great organisation. Thank you and please convey my best wishes to her and to all who made this a success.

AdrianDinner was great. I was actually quite surprised at the turnout and never actually realised that Kylie had such a huge following. I was actually seated with other contest winners and they were all very excited to be able to meet Kylie in person. The coffee table book was also quite a pleasant surprise as I did not expect to receive such a nice gift. All in all, a lovely nite. Thank you guys. :)
