EMBASSY OF CHINA HOSTED MAGNIFICENT CHINESE NEW YEAR DINNER FOR 600 GUESTS AT SHANGRI-LA KUALA LUMPUR TO CELEBRATE YEAR OF MONKEY

KEE@FSWMAG.COM
AS CHINA IS NOW THE SECOND RICHEST COUNTRY ON PLANET EARTH, IT STOOD TO REASON ITS CNY GALA AT SHANGRI-LA WAS ALSO MASSIVELY LAVISH AND IMPRESSIVE! 

Around 600 guests had floated in and out by the time it ended at nearly 10 pm with some turning up at 6 pm.

Shangri-La laid on a veritable imperial banquet fit for a latterday emperor and the platters were constantly refilled so guests never had to wait long. I was also impressed at a self-service ice cream counter where I ate 4 bars and fr hours felt like the movie 'Frozen' later.
