In ancient times as well as today, Feng Shui, pronounced in English as (”fung shwee”) or  (”fung shway”), was known as “Kan-Yu” which means ‘The Law of Heaven and Earth.’ Today’s Feng Shui schools teach that it is the ancient Chinese practice of placement and arrangement of space to achieve harmony with the environment. Feng shui literally translates as “wind-water.”

I don’t know if one should believe in Feng Shui but personally, I don’t put in much thoughts. I mean, come on … ‘pak kuas’, lion figurine’s and stuffs …. let’s get real. Then again, our opinions are very much influenced by the eastern early culture on Feng Shui masters. Mostly, we think Feng Shui’s are old fashion traditional, superstitious stuffs believed only by the older generation folks.

But looking at the rate of commercialization on the Feng Shui element, one can only wonder if modern technology has any influence over these practices. Which brings me to tell you about a recent luncheon that I was invited to. It’s a Feng Shui Luncheon i.e. 3 course lunch with a ‘mini’ course on Feng Shui. Quite an eye-opener, I would say.

The ‘mini’ course was presented by renowned author and Geomancer, Yick Tan titled “How to Achieve Health, Wealth and Happiness in the Year Of The Rat”.

Of course, I was initially enticed to go because of the “3-Course Lunch” provided but surprisingly, I learn a great deal from the 2 hours seminar. Well, I won’t elaborate further on the content of the course, I’ll let you find out more from his website here.

Let’s talk about the luncheon, shall we?

I wrote about Wendy’s Bistro a little while ago, hence I shall not elaborate on the details on this place. You can read about it here.

There were selections from the menu and I chose to have the Grilled Bacon Salad with Balsamic Vinegar Dressing, followed by some Grilled Spare Ribs & Pork Belly, Pork Kebabs on Fragrant Pilaf Rice and finally ice cream cake and coffee. And I was so full that I totally couldn’t move after that … which is perfect because right after lunch, master Yick Tan gave us some ‘free’ consultation on our personal and business prospects. Nice … ! Here are some visuals on the food I had … yummy !
