CSC Taekwondo Year-End Gathering cum Flippa-Ball 2012<br />

Taekwondo trainees had a jolly great time of bonding as they had a Flippa-ball crash course on 2 December.<br />

Unlike Taekwondo which advocates a total development of oneself, the winning formula for Flippa-ball centres<br />

solely on team collaboration. The young trainees benefitted from the values and importance of team work, trust<br />

and group rapport.<br />

HALLOWEEN NIGHT By Janice Lim<br />

It was a night of pumpkins and ghouls, when the bar transformed itself into a
spooky spider’s lair in true<br />

Halloween tradition. The she-devils turned the heat up several notches and set the mood for the evening with<br />

their treats or tricks chilling fun. Everyone had a horrendously good time for sure.<br />

3 Bars 2nd Anniversary By Janice Lim<br />

Members and their guests who qualified for invitation partied away in a Bollywood-themed 3 Bars celebration<br />

of its 2nd anniversary. Besides indulging in a sumptuous, specially-prepared buffet, party-goers were invited<br />

to participate in a round of games as well as a beer-drinking contest, where the winner walked away with<br />

bottles of wines plus an array of exclusive premiums. Providing eye candy were the saree-clad models, not<br />

forgetting our entertaining Mistress of Ceremony, who led the auction of several lots of wines and liquor, with<br />

the proceeds going towards a selected beneficiary.

LUWAK COFFEE PAIRING<br />

The world’s priciest and most sought-after coffee titillated the palates and curiosity of many members and<br />

guests in the final coffee pairing of the year on 20 November. The luwak coffee (also known as civet coffee) was<br />

much to the participants’ surprise, non-acidic and nothing but a perfect smooth brew. The tasting session<br />

provided the much needed ‘oomph’ while the participants enjoyed the specially crafted menu du jour. Apart<br />

from the dine-in experience, many participants had the opportunity to purchase some of the premium coffee<br />

beans to share with their friends and loved ones this festive season.<br />

We would like to extend our special thanks to Bon Café for the kind sponsorships and insights shared during<br />

the short session.
