Special thanks to Ixora Hotel for extending this event invitation.

Baba & Nyonya Hall is a new event space in Ixora Hotel. Formerly retail space for tenants, the area now serves as a conference hall for corporate and private functions. This extra space complements the Grand Ballroom, which is often occupied on weekends and holidays.

The design of Baba & Nyonya Hall revolves around marine life. Besides starfish motif for the carpet, there are also tropical aquariums at the foyer. The interior designer obviously has an affinity for fish.

Baba & Nyonya Hall consists of two separate sections, Baba Hall and Nyonya Hall, which covers 108 and 226 square meters respectively. When combined, the overall area can accommodate 380 guests in a banquet setting.

Ixora Hotel is hosting a business cocktail this evening to showcase the Baba & Nyonya Hall. The buffet line is decorated with lobster-like ornaments, perhaps to underscore the hall’s marine theme.

Ixora Hotel’s banquet kitchen is staffed by an elite crew led by Executive Chef Ong. Food is served in tapas-style portions. Delicacies include smoked salmon, seared tuna, seafood ceviche, truffle brioche, asparagus crudités and crab meatballs.

Meanwhile, pasta choices are spaghetti, fettuccine and tagliatelle. Pasta is served with tomatoes and capsicum.

Three pasta sauces are prepared this evening: marinara, bolognese and carbonara. Parmesan cheese and chili flakes are provided.

The pastry chef also prepared sweet treats such as mango panna cotta, matcha crumble mousse, blueberry pavlova, cheese tartlets, tiramisu savoiardi, almond profiteroles and dark chocolate macarons.

Chardonnay Pinot Grigio is poured this evening. As for something non-alcoholic, Ocean Lemonade is prepared from lemon-flavored soda pop. The mocktail is infused with butterfly-pea flowers as a natural coloring.
