Dining With The Queens: Legumes “Nyonya” Mother’s Day Buffet, A Treat Fit For A Queen

 

Legumes, Malaysia's premier catering brand, kicked off Mother's Day festivities with an exciting preview event held at the Fun Fun Event Space in Puchong. We had the privilege of attending the 'Dining With The Queens' preview packed with culinary masterpieces and fun-filled entertainment as well as a sumptuous lunch served as a tantalizing teaser for Dining With The Queens, an upcoming 3-day buffet dinner dedicated to honouring mothers.

The highlight of the preview was the engaging presentations by Legumes CEO & co-founder Ms. Siow Miqi and Sales Director Mr. Earon Teh. Miqi shared the story of Legumes’ history, and its evolution into a renowned catering brand. She also spoke about their inspiration for this year’s Mother’s Day buffet event. 

Earon then outlined Legumes’ current range of services and upcoming projects, including plans to cater to universities and local institutions and a brand-new range of Legumes “Mini Buffet” that cater to smaller and more casual and private functions. He also introduced the brand’s new logo and brand assets that will reflect their new ventures. 

Adding to the celebration were cooking demonstrations by COO & co-founder Mr. Kenneth Chua Wei Xian and Legumes Junior Sous Chef Nur Aufa Athiya Binti Othman, where they showcased the company’s range of food products. 

Chef Aufa prepared a grazing box that would be suitable for smaller gatherings, while Kenneth presented the local favourite Kong Pao Chicken in Yam Basket assisted by the Demi Chef, Chef James Ng Wen Jia. These sessions not only displayed their culinary skills but also highlighted the quality and creativity that Legumes brings to the table.

Legumes also presented a Showcase of “drop off catering” as well as Thematic Buffet: Moonlight Oriental. Other thematic buffets such as “Great Gastby” and “Sunshine” theme are also available.

We had the opportunity to participate in a series of fun activities, including a DIY flower basket for mum, and a word search game related to the Mother’s Day event.
