Date: 28th May 2009 (Unduk Ngadau Gala Nite)
Venue: Hongkod Koisaan KDCA, Penampang
Time: 6.30pm - 11.00pm
.
The dinner was held at the main venue of this year's Kaamatan Festival as part the bigger event to be held on 30th and 31st later this month. The objective is to help fund the Unduk Ngadau and the proceed from ticket sales to be donated to Sabah Thalassemia Society.
This is not mineral water. It's Lihing, a traditional Kadazandusun alcoholic drink (equivalent to Tuak in Sarawak), given as welcome drink to the paying diners. I tried a couple of sip.
.
Appetizer was okay, except that the crab meat stick was not fresh. The rest were 'okay' but weren't that great too. Think that's how they were supposed to be.
.
Enough of food, let's start the ball rolling by letting Kebudayaan Sabah kick things up with the opening presentation
