Christmas 2014: Cook Magazine's Holiday Bash

I attended my first Christmas party last November 25, 2014 at F1 Hotel's Infinity Ballroom, Taguig City.

On its fourth year, Cook Magazine hosted its yearly celebration of thanksgiving with the theme: 'Frozen: Winter is Coming'. In attendance were people / brands who have supported them in the past 15 years in publication, some of which were awarded with plaque in recognition. One more reason to celebrate is the opening of their Kitchen Studio in Quezon City (check out Ate Vance's article, who attended the opening on my behalf).

There were raffle draws, entertainment and games throughout the night. Grand raffle prizes include a Bosch Kitchen Machine by Hafele, a multifunctional vegetable food cutter from Berghoff Philippines, Tecnogas stove and a fridge from Whirlpool. We may not be so lucky with the raffle but the generous goodie bag from the sponsors was more than enough for me :)
