CROWD:
As we all know, T&T is loaded with Public Holidays and strangely enough, this event took place on the day of the holiday instead of the usual night b4 the holiday. The party was generally well attended by patrons all and in all with roughly a 2:1 woman to man ratio. Most folks of course decked off to the theme dress code of Khaki & White attire.

VIBES:
The music was entertaining and there was a good vibe coming off the crowd. During the night's course there was even a performance by artist Squeeze Rankin.
VENUE/ACCESSIBILITY:
The party was easy to find once you are familiar with attending any of Misty Ridge's promotions. We did hear of some patrons who got lost however. Probably more signage could have been used. The venue changed a bit as the promoter used an area that normally served as parking to be the night's stomping ground instead of the usual poolside & frontside of the house. Definitely created more space to party in. The decor used created a nice ambiance and overall the venue did have good general layout.
COST/VALUE:
With 2-4-1 specials on drinks and FREE food, the ticket price of $199 was justified. That's also not forgetting the exclusive venue, good music and nice people.
SERVICE:
The level of service provided on the night was good. For a place offering free food, one would expect to have a long wait, but this was anything but the case.

FOOD/DRINK:
Drinks ran at a 2-4-1 special all night long. There was even a Bottle Bar offering the same 2-4-1 special on your favorite bottles of alco. When it came to the food, things got even better. Free Doubles and Corn Soup all night long! Who say 2 with slight ...
