There are more than 100 ways to prepare salmon as you can see here in tonight's dinner. The spread of fresh Salmon and seafood is abundant and endless.
I tucked into the endless spread of desserts too! Everything looks soooo yummy.
The ice cream station here serves up very unconventional
flavours all curated especially for the event and seems to be a hit among
guests.

Beautiful ladies dressed to the nines were seen at the Gala Dinner. Don't they look lovely.
And gentlemen looking dashing in their suits.
Well good food certainly unites people.
