Thursday, November 01, 2007 Utzurrum: Art your service food lovers By Chinggay V. Utzurrum The scene
WHEN the Arts Council of Cebu Foundation embarks on a fund-raising event, you can be absolutely sure that no stone is left unturned, no strings are left hanging, and no detail is too small to attend to.
Small wonder then that their latest happening, Art your Service, a gastronomic adventure into the realm of the Cantonese food gods, was a finger-licking success!
Who indeed, but the Arts Council trustees could gather the city’s crème-de-la-crème diners, munching on dimsum delicacies, and savoring every morse! Why even the “waitresses” also belonged to the crème of society!
Led by president Petite Garcia, the complement of servers marched into the hall in their ivory-hued Mao-inspired uniforms and proceeded to their assigned tables.
The lauriat was scrumptious, service was impeccable, so the tips came generously (Did we hear that one server actually pocketed P60, 000.00 from her table?)
The mood was indeed addicting, so Star auctioneer Jude Bacalso, had no problem raising additional funds from the furniture and artworks donated by generous souls!
We shall keep our lips sealed as to the exact astronomical figure they raised that evening!
