One World Hotel: Christmas Light Up Ceremony, Launch of Grant-A-Wish for the Children of House of Joy and A Delectable Christmas Buffet!


With the Christmas season around the corner, are you ready for the festive celebrations?






To mark the beginning of the yuletide season, One World Hotel has invited children from the underprivileged home, the House of Joy together with its staff for the hotel’s Christmas Light Up Ceremony recently in December.






The hotel launched its Grant-A-Wish programme to fulfill the Christmas wish of 30 children from the House of Joy.  The children from the home had a great time hanging up their wish list on the 20-feet Christmas Tree at the hotel lobby that night and the good news is that all the children’s wishes have been fulfilled by the hotel staff itself!






During this festive season, One World Hotel is also taking on the Alvin and The Chipmunks theme, which has delighted many of the children including adults that night.  This is in collaboration with FOX’s forthcoming release of the move, Alvin and The Chipmunks 3 Chipwrecked on 15 December. 





 
Figurines of the Chipmunks are the main highlight at the hotel lobby together with a huge gorgeous Christmas tree!






Joining in the celebration this evening are Christmas carolers who belted out lively carols to entertain the guests.






The Chipmunks made a special appearance alongside Santa and his helpers and the kids went wild… their faces that night imprinted a precious moment in my heart!






“We are indeed happy to announce that all the wishes of the children from the House of Joy have been granted by our staff.  When we first announced this meaningful programme to the staff, we received an overwhelming response from them to sponsor the child’s wish.  On behalf of the hotel, I would like to thank each and every one of them for their generous contribution” said Florence Leong, assistant director of communications.






“To recognize their contribution, the staff’s name will be placed alongside the child’s wish list on the tree.  Apart from the Grant-A-Wish programme, we will be organizing a Charity Screening of the movie, Alvin and Chipmunks 3 Chipwrecked, on 17th of December at GSC 1 Utama.  The aim of the screening is to collect fund for the House of Joy and Precious Children’s Home. For the charity screening, we will be inviting 50 children from both homes to enjoy this movie with our hotel staff. For the remaining seats, we will be approaching our corporate clients to donate RM35 nett for each seat.  All funds collected will be channeled to these two homes for their monthly expenses and maintenance.  We hope to raise at least RM2,000 for each home through the charity screening” added Florence Leong.

The House of Joy is located in Puchong and has around 55 children while the Precious Children’s Home in Section 3 Petaling Jaya houses about 30 children.  These two underprivileged homes survive solely on donations/contributions from the church and individuals for their monthly expenses.






After the launch, the children and media will be invited to sample a spread of Christmas delicacies at the award-winning Cinnamon Coffee House.  Cinnamon Coffee House will be offering special buffets during Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day.






All Christmas delights from the essential Roast Turkey with all its trimmings are beautifully displayed together with Roast Beef, Seafood Terrine, Deep Blue Seafood on Ice and more.












Check out the array of appetizers, cold cuts and salads in the starter station where the kaleidoscope of dishes will whet one’s appetite for the festive season. I spied Smoked Salmon Mousse, Roulade of Turkey Ham and Beef, Seafood Salad, Caesar Salad, Potato Salad and so much more… J






Like any Asians, we do enjoy a mixture of Asian cuisine in our buffets, so fear not for those who must have their Asian treats as there is a long list of Japanese Sushi, Sashimi, Teppanyaki and Tempura, Chinese Dim Sum with Steamboat and Hainanese Chicken Rice, Malay Satays, Rendang and Salads, Indian station with Tandoori, Rojak and curries and another mile list long of Asian delights!

A colouring contest for children aged 4 – 9 years will also be held on every Saturday and Sunday during hi-tea at Cinnamon Coffee House.  Prizes such as hotel stays, F&B vouchers and the Chipmunks plush toys are waiting to be won.
