Yummy yummy...

Last Monday, our International Food Fest kick-started with favourable responses from those who attended the club meeting. Unlike before, where our Food Fests are merely potlucks, a lil twist is added to this year's Food Fest.

Instead of just tasting the food, for every club meetings to come this semester, there would be a couple of teams pitting against each other in whipping up the 'Dish of the Week'. For each round, our International friends would be there to guide the teams. In plain English - a cooking competition lar~. This time round, the lucky contestants are - Rotarian Arthur, President Jasmitt, Director Jerry and Assistant Director Arvinder.

And Thai students Leena Yeewae, Abeedin Adulphakdee, Umdao Nopparat, Sariyah Puteh, and Hafsah U-Seng were kind enough to lend us a hand.

Recently, we had our club meeting on the 28th of August. For our avenue, we presented on the recent Olympic Games that was held in Beijing, China. We got to know the history of the Olympics, how the Olympics today shaped the world, the list of games held at the Beijing Olympics and, also about its six mascots.

Here are some snapshots of the meeting:
