This is the continuation of my story on Best Dressed Women Annual Awards Ball held on September 26 wednesday at the Shangrila Hotel in Makati City, Philippines.
These lovebirds were my seatmates, Luis-Maria Zabaljauregui and Marvi Sala. Luis told me he has retired from his work and lived in Bacolod but his former company re-hired him as consultant to clean-up the organization. Ten top officers were fired but still got fat separation packages of some P50M and more for each. According to Luis, the company lost some 1.5M from the previous officers and employees’ connivance.
Graft pervades even in private sector not only in government.

The waiters and waitresses looking like fashion models paraded on stage carrying our food.
This is our starter, Coriander Marinated Smoked Salmon with Caesar Salad
I didn’t expect to eat a whole steak but I did, this Beef Tenderloin and creamy mashed potato melted in my mouth. Everyone at our table complemented it.
Raspberry Creme Brulee with Coconut Biscotti and Passion Fruit. The passion fruit tamed the extra sweetness of the creme brulee.
