Review of DoubleTree's CNY Food Promotion

It is the first time that the newly opened DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Penang is doing a Chinese New Year promotion. On that occasion, the hotel invited member of various social media to help give their promotion a boost in exposure. My wife and I were pleased to be invited to the event.

Upon our arrival, we met up with our blogger friends and we warmly greeted by Linda Giebing, whom we met the first time on the opening day of the hotel. It was great to meet her again. I am pleased to meet Mr Joyi Ng, the friendly Business Development Manager, with whom I have worked closely to give the hotel coverage on my channels. And in addition, I also get to meet one of the trainees from Germany, Miss Teresa Brinckmann.

We were all seated at a row of tables lined to form a long row. There were both familiar and unfamiliar social media players that the hotel's Kuala Lumpur PR agency has managed to dig up.

The dishes we were trying out that evening came from their Reunion Dinner menu, which reads as follows:

We started the evening by tossing the Yee Sang. After that is done, we returned to our seats.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
