Sherin's birthday Dinner 2013

This year we celebrated Sherin's birthday dinner with her friends at Redribbon Days's new partner's place - Hit and Mrs. 

We have an amazing team that is really good at organising events - Kids' birthday parties, team-events etc but I am not part of the amazing event team. And because I'm not part of the event team, I've never organised any events. My first event that I organised was this year - Sherin's birthday.

We did a pretty good job - Thanks to Sharmein that did most of the planning and execution with Ramyah's help.

Sherin's Birthday Celebration 2013

At RedRibbon Days, we always have birthday lunch celebrations with the team. Previously, the birthday boy/girl gets to choose their favourite food so we can order and eat together. Sherin's favourite food is Nasi Padang so previous years we have been eating Nasi Padang together.

This year however, I changed the tradition. Everyone can order their favourite food on their birthday as long as it's Banana Leaf Rice! My favourite! So we had banana leaf rice for Sherin's birthday. It's really cool because we even take away the banana leaf back to the office.

Oh i realised i didnt transfer the photo of Sherin with the banana leaf rice. If you want to see the amazing banana leaf rice, please check out my other blog (sorry i got to promote my other blog too. Haha! Here!)

Sherin received a RedRibbon Days experience from the team and an amazing Andy Warhol picture of her.

Twenty One Kitchen and Bar

I rarely blog about my RedRibbon Days dining experience that I've tried but I was looking through my pictures and decided to blog anyway since I rarely take photos of food. OK, actually it's not true... I was looking through the food pics from Sherin's phone. I may be wrong but I always thought food is for eating and not for pictures. Haha!

We had the opportunity to experience Modern European with a Touch of Asian at Twentyone recently.  It was Sherin's November Birthday celebration so we celebrated with Sherin's family members who flew down from Singapore to celebrate with her.

The three course set menu allows us to choose our choice of starter, main and dessert.

I love the wild mushroom soup with truffle cream & cheese croutons. I didnt order this dish by the way. But i wished I ordered it. It tastes better than it looks (above)

 

 I ordered the caesar salad (above). It's not bad but I prefer the mushroom soup.

For mains, we had a choice of Sirloin Steak, Chicken Tikka Masala or Pan Fried Sea Bass but all of us ordered the steak (below)

The steak was okay but I couldnt finish it. The portion was too big for me.

And finally for dessert, my favourite lemon tart (trust me, tastes so much better than it looks) (below)

This experience does not include any alcohol beverages but if you are going for dinner, try to do an earlier dinner because their Happy Hours at Twenty One is really good value for money.

And after the filling dinner, guess what, we had to eat Sherin's Pavlova birthday cake! Now I know why I felt like exploding that evening.

ATV with Corporate Clients

I think I blogged about our RedRibbon Days ATV experience quite a few times but I had the opportunity to accompany our Corporate Clients recently for their team bonding experience and took some photos.

It's amazing how this ATV experience was one of RedRibbon Days first few experience when we launched in 2008 and how RRD and ATV provider grew over the years. I'm so happy to see that the experience provider started with 8 ATVs and now they have 100 ATVs. The Boss brought me around the ATV area to show me their newly built station/starting point (with additional 4 toilets/showers) to accommodate big groups to do the experience together.

It gets my adrenalin pumping just looking at these mean machines lined up together.

A picture of the Boss of our ATV service provider, Mas (above) briefing to our corporate clients. Our ATV provider takes safety very seriously - no racing, no speeding, follow a consistent speed. My favourite line of Mas "Screaming will not stop the machine".

It was a hot day and our group turn our was big. I bet the ice cream man sold quite a lot of ice cream that day (above). 

Most Glam 2013

2013 has been really good to us at RedRibbon Days. We are thankful and grateful that after 5 years, our Founder and CEO received recognition for the work that we do. Sherin Wong received the Marie Claire's 2013 Woman Style and Substance award, Prestige Magazine's Top 40 under 40 and recently Glam Magazine's Most Glam 2013 award.

I only have pictures for Most Glam but if you want to check out Sherin's other awards, please check our my other blog or follow me on instagram @mingnerrd.

Many of our friends think our Boss, Founder and CEO of RedRibbon Days Sherin Wong looks like a model in the picture above.

Amazing 2013 and we cant wait for 2014! My favourite hashtag on instagram #Blessed
