One of the most memorable meals we’ve had in year 2012 was in Shook!, Starhill Gallery. We were there for the Sunday Masquerades Lunch, which happened to be one of those rare meals where everything was perfect. Everything starts from the food, the service, the ambiance down to the booze, the entertainment and the souvenirs makes it an unique dining experience.
Shook!’s team really went all out in preparation of the Mardi Gras-themed masquerade party. Beads, glitter and vibrant colors were spotted everywhere; which created a fanfare of spectacular colours and attitudes.
Here, the wait staffs dressed up in their flamboyant best; turning themselves into the pomp and pageantry of Royal Court Jesters and Sultry Sirens in feathered masks and Medieval Damsels in distress.
Shook! is transformed into an open theatre with the grandest feast in town featuring world class cuisines and free-flow champagnes, served with fun-filled fantasies on Sunday Masquerades. We loved the bright, funky and versatile Jester fabric seat the most. Very carnival-ish!
The Sunday Masquerades Lunch is meant to be enjoyed with leisure, starting from 12 noon to 3.30 pm. The buffet lunch is equipped with a feast of entertainment with fine dining and wining, cocktails-on-the go and also a choice of free-flow champagne.
