9TH ANNUAL NEW WORLD OF FOOD AND WINE FESTIVAL
The weeklong New World of Food and Wine Festival from 13 to 19 August 2007 culminates in the highly-extravagant Grand Celebration Charity Gala dinner on Sat, 18 August, which promises to be a feast for the senses. Featuring celebrity guest chefs of the Festival, Jacques Reymond, Kazumi Uemoto, Donato de Santis, David Lee, Nicholas Anthony and Frederic Loraschi, each contributing to the six-course gala dinner that will be served with wines showcased during the Festival from the estates of Moët & Chandon, Salitage, Concha Y Toro, Vérité and Graham’s.

Guests will also experience an evening of aesthetic appreciation and enjoy entertainment in the form of “Talking Portraits”, where famous art pieces come to life. The gala dinner offers patrons a rare opportunity to support the development of an art appreciation curriculum in local schools, through an auction of fine wines and artworks conducted by Christie’s Singapore. The focus of the night with be the spectacular culinary experience. Thus, the auction portion will be kept to a minimum with a select artworks, with the highlight on the auction of important rare wines from the various
participating vintners.

We are very fortunate that the hotel has adopted Art Outreach as the beneficiary for the charity proceeds, of which 100% of the tables & auction sales will be donated to Art Outreach. It would be truly quite a fabulous night of gastronomy. Tables at $2,500/
$3,500 & $4,500 or individual seats at $250/$350/$450.
