It was my first time going to a Wine and Dine event Thanks to Openrice’s Wine and Dine guest passes.
Before you go in, you are given a starter bag which contains a wine glass and a booklet of coupons for free wine and food tasting.
There are two types of food coupons depending on your pass, the ones I got were VIP coupons which entitles you to full portions of food according to the information and the normal ones are worth $10 per coupon.
It was confusing at first because I have not attended this before and some booths were mind boggled by these coupons, some treated these VIP coupons for half portions, and some treated them as being worth $10 so I did not the coupons on these booths.
It was good seeing La Parole at Wine and Dine because I have yet to try their restaurant.
At this booth I used TWO VIP coupons for two half portion dishes.

Savoury beef stew with mashed potato:
Not keen on beef but just felt like trying it.
The mash with the beef was really nice, it was dense and silky with a strong potato taste and the beef sauce was rich.

Foie gras with caramelized apple:
The foie gras was nicely done, it was gently cooked leaving it soft and silky on the inside with a firm texture while the tart caramelized apples complimented it nicely balancing the heavyiness of the foie gras.
