Another fabulous dinner by Maymay

I attended another fabulous dinner graciously hosted by Maymay Liechtenstein at her party house.

pre-dinner food,

I only see unusual dried fruits and foods at Maymay’s events. She travels around the world and brings home gourmet goodies.

I didn’t want to start eating the jamon at first. After half hour, sige na nga, tikman ko. I couldn’t stop eating kasi it was delicious and not salty.

The gracious host, resplendent in a beautiful silk dress she recently bought from Australia. She liked the design a lot she bought 8 different styles.
Up close, the material and craftsmanship are really superb. The dresses don’t come cheap though, I think a dress is at least $1,500.

A toast to the host. Maymay announced that Margie Moran is now a brand-new lola. The apo must be as beautiful as she.

The stones came from their beach house in Batangas. She had them made into a soup bowl.

Literally a very heavy soup.

It was difficult to remember the names of the dishes. Some of the ingredients were foreign to me. Basta, subo lang ako ng subo.
