The Banquet

Last night we attended the wedding banquet of Johannes’ friends at Taiwu Restaurant, Rotterdam. The bride and groom are Johannes’ friends from CJO time. This is my second time attending the Chinese wedding banquet in the Netherlands, which usually stated in the invitation that dinner will be served from 6pm (some from 8 or 10pm) but it will never be served until 3 hours later. On the other hand, the food is always of an assured quality although menu is as rustic and static since decades ago with dishes such as suckling pork, shark fin soup, steamed fish, whole abalone, seafood bird nest, etc…

All in all, it was okay despite of lack of atmosphere . However hosting a banquet on Tuesday night where one has to work the next day is never an ideal night out (at least for me personally).
