Marriage Encounter

To nurture and support the marriage of a man and a woman and their family life by offering an opportunity to experience a deep and loving communication with each other and with God.

By exchanging feelings through dialogue between couples, each personhood is given to his/her respective spouse so that they can experience moments of unity, with the same feeling of the same degree.

This is the purpose of holding Marriage Encounter which has become an annual and major event for SKKP. Held at Obhur last September 3-4, the participants, married couples, were given the chance to fill the necessities to grow together in the belief that future transformation of the world begins at the heart of the family ~ the couple.

Artscooking served as the principal caterer to the 2-day events starting with a dinner on the first day with the following menu: Beef with Mushroom Sauce, Chinese Veggies, Corn Soup, Shrimp Tempura, Macaroni Salad, and Fish Fillet.

Iftar Party

We catered to a group of Filipinos last September 5 at Unidecor Company on the occasion of its annual Iftar Party. We were side by side with another caterer to serve other nationalities. We just couldn't help but smile at the thought that we don't do bad at all compared to our Indian counterpart.

Chennai is an Indian professional caterer based in Al Azizia Jeddah. They had everything coming from shelfing dish to mantle & skirting. The menu looked good too. We tried to take a pix of their food, pero we were not allowed, for whatever reason. What we have is some-meters-away-shots from where they set-up. Anyways, lamang lang Artscooking that time 'coz we had real china plates and stainless spoon and fork, gamit nila disposables.

Cheers!

Happy Birthday Ann Lorienne

It all started from this house. Our very first catering gig in Jeddah. We can say it is that lady of the house, Lorie, who played as our business angel for she's the first who believed in us and gave us that necessary break.

It happened when she let us cook for her eldest daughter Leanne. Then a year after, during the christening of this pretty baby Lorienne . And this year, Lorienne's very first birthday.

In addition, we also served during Karate exhibition and competion, of which Jun, the husband, plays a very important role.

It is like saying Artscooking had been a part of the most significant celebrations of this family's life in Jeddah, and grateful may not suffice enough how we feel for them.

So, sa next baby, kami ulet ha. Look oh, Lorienne is so happy with the thought. Wink! wink!

In addition to skirting, we now also set-up balloons such as the one you see in this picture.

Here's Artscooking menu during the occasion: Beef Menudo, Roast Beef, Chicken Mongolian Spicy, Releyenong Bangus, Mixed Veggies with Quail Eggs, Mixed Pansit Canton/Bihon, Mixed Seafoods Fried Rice, Pichi-pichi, Buko Pandan, and Cassava Cake.

Happy Birthday Andre!

We always think about what would really make a child smile during his birthday. And what is the ever-reliable way to make him happy?

.... P A R T Y !

And so we witnessed Andre's party at Moontoon, Serafi Mall last September 3. The place is so far is one of the biggest and finest party places we've seen so far. It's got plenty of kid-friendly rides to choose from, a mini-stage where they can do their dance and song numbers, baloon set-up and a wide lounge, we bet you can accomodate a whole barangay (exags!)

Sad part is Moontoon's administration is so strict with bringing in food from outside the mall. This is why we we're not able to do our usual full buffet set-up during the event. We were told to merely place the food pans on the tables, devoid of any mantle or skirtings and whatsoevers.

Anyways, it's Andre's party. And that alone is reason enough to make the whole thing glee.

We guess the fact that Mom and Dad gave him a wonderful birthday celebration with all special people present made this cutiepie Andre bounce for joy. And that's what matters most, isn't it?

Nevertheless, Artscooking provided the following menu to suit the discriminating taste of expected 100 guests: Mixed Veggies with Quail Eggs, Fish Fillet in Sweet & Sour Sauce, Chicken with Cashew Nuts, Beef Hamonado, Sapin-sapin and Corn Soup.

Pechos

Pechos is actually a foreign word to the 'core' (google it). We named this as such for obvious reason that this particular brand of finger food exposed 'what's in it'.

So we can not only taste, but we get to see the filing of that yummy franks and cheese that melts in your mouth.

Thank you Angie for ordering this uniquely Artscooking menu.
