We joined 60 orphans from the Port Dickson Islamic Orphanage Foundation during breaking of fast organised by Thistle Port Dickson at their very own Fresh restaurant.

It was already our second time to dine in their buffet but this time it was more special. All seven to 16 years old, including eight guardians, were treated to a variety of food for breaking fast headed by Chef Azlin Osman. Watch below video, recorded live on Facebook, to see how the event looks like, and a bit of briefing by the the Chef.

This is a very good gesture to be able to somewhat give back thru special gatherings like this. The breaking of fast program is part of the resort’s corporate responsibility and it is already their third year of hosting this event.

Thistle Port Dickson’s General Manager, Eusebius Samm, handed over goods and cash donations (Duit Raya packets) to all of the kids from the orphanage as a present. Watch the above live video, recorded on Facebook, to see the event. Everyone applauded the hotel’s generosity and charitable act.

The guests were entertained with songs performed by the Ochestra Eccentric group. The event was also attended by the Honorary Secretary of the foundation Mokhtar Ibrahim. Details about the food and the buffet was already discussed in previous blog post.

The overall experience had a quite busy crowd but it was a very overwhelming experience to be a part of a now traditional event at the Thistle Hotel. We are sure that all the guests had their tummies filled with goodness and their heart filled with joy.
