For the 54th Merdeka Sunday Brunch at Spice Market Cafe in the month of August, each week brings a different menu that is painstakingly prepared and presented by their chefs in to the dinners. Each week we get to try different dishes and meet different (almost) Chefs that will be manning their respective stations, we even get to meet interns who aspire to join the ranks of top chefs in the F&B industry and leave their mark in, what they have chosen, a hard and challenging career that demands dedication and long hours.

Through this contest and event organised for the bloggers, we try bringing the bloggers and chefs or food providers closer and bridging a better understanding of what we eat, how they prepared and most importantly hygiene and safety demands that we as consumers should ask for. And likewise, we also hope to change the perception of what business owners have about bloggers that have been tarnished by a few bad apples in the community, and also the purpose of bloggers in this modern age of technology. Bloggers play the role of check and balance and distributor of information.

Or better still, join in the fun with us and celebrate the 54th Merdeka with a tummy full of good eats and be entertained with the appearance clown(s) that tries to put a brighter smile on everyone’s face.
