DeleteHi HappySurfer as promised to give you the full detail of HGH Convention Center in Sentul after attending the wedding dinner last night. Sad to say many don't know the answer as napkin only show HGH, including the menu, brochures and waiters & waitresses tag only have HGH. Our best guess its the name of a person and very likely stands for Hwang Gxx Hai based on the Chinese characters on the hall according to sweetie Mango. Nice place to hold wedding function with great lightings & audio system. Best is no pillars at all and ample car parks can fit 60-70 tables comfortably. The last luncheon function we went was too cramped with 100 over tables.
ReplyDeleteBananaz, thanks so much for the update and the extra info. Yes, a pillarless hall is a plus for functions.
DeleteThe HGH I know of is Human Growth Hormones in relation to health. :D
hurray~ LCW win again~ =D
