Food Revolution 2012 / S A M A N T H A

Hi there! I’m Samantha,

and this space encompasses my personal milestones made beautiful in His time. Combining my flair for easy-to-read writing and my love for photography, here you'll find me sharing the thing I'm most passionate about - travel, food, fashion and my conversations with God.

*P.S when God was blessing others with the gift of height, He left me out realizing that great things come in tiny packages, so instead I am gifted with endless energy and a big wide smile to get through difficult times.

Forever & always, a child of God. Through this cozy little virtual haven, I hope each post inspires at least someone out there with my life stories.

Food Revolution 2012

06 June 2012

As the name suggests, Food Revolution is a show aimed at re-creating the stereotypes and pre-conceived ideas that we have about food.

"At Food Revolution 2012, we hope to showcase the essence of food at its creative best and we promise visitors a wide array of exhibitors most whom we do not see at food shows. In addition, we have also lined up an impressive array of workshops ranging from a singing chef cooking demo, nutritional cooking and even wine appreciation."

Thanks to Mum's invite from Celebrity Chef Eric Teo, who will be there at "The Modern World", I attended this dinner event. Specially for the show, Chef created 5 special dishes which will be available exclusively at Food Revolution!

When I looked at the menu, I thought it was big portions for sharing, but it turned out to be something of total opposites. So here's what we had for dinner that night...
