Eurasian Festival by The Eurasian Association

The Eurasian Association (EA) was set up in 1919 to serve the interests of the Eurasian community in Singapore. It aims to obtain closer ties as well as to promote a better understanding of Eurasians to the other ethnic groups and nationalities in Singapore. The Eurasian Festival was organised and supported by the Peoples Association, and was held at the West Coast Community Club. I was glad to have attended the festival and to experience Eurasian Culture!


There was a specially curated Eurasian cultural exhibition outside the community hall.


Inside the multi-purpose hall, a line-up of performances and activities was going on. There were also booths selling crafts and Eurasian Souvenirs.
 

Chewy and I had fun dressing up in traditional Portuguese Eurasian costumes at the photo booth to take some photos.  



Christmas is always an important festival for Eurasians!



Mr S Iswaran, Minister for Communications and Information, Minister-In-Charge of Trade Relations, and Adviser to West Coast GROs was there to grace the event as the Guest-of-Honour. Minister Iswaran is also the Minister representing the Eurasian Community in the cabinet.


The Eurasian kitchen is the birthplace of fusion food. It is an exotic blend of East and West cuisines! Eurasian cuisine is a glorious mix of Asian and European flavors. Quentin serves delectable and best Eurasian Food which is handed down through the generations.


We were treated to a sumptuous buffet dinner by Quentin. We got to savor some traditional Eurasian staple foods, and they were really delicious!


Thanks for the invite, and we really enjoyed and immersed ourselves in this Eurasian celebration!

Korea's No. 1 beauty brand, KUNDAL shower/hair products are now available in Singapore, and I am honored to try out their full series of shampoo, treatment, body wash and hair serum which includes a special gift from them - Bath Bombs! KUNDAL o ffers natural hair/bodycare products that have the perfect blend of plant extracts. Their products are comfortably referred to as green products due to their biodegradable and non-toxic components. What I love about the  KUNDAL HONEY & MACADAMIA  range is  that they use honey and macadamia extracts as their main ingredients. They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder. The scent still lingering in the bathroom for hours and it smells pleasant as well as not being over-powering. I love how my hair feels smooth after using each of the products. I tried the White Musk shampoo and Cherry Blossom treatment,...
