Cook Magazine Holiday Bash 2014

The COOK Magazine Holiday Bash is actually COOK Magazine's yearly Christmas gathering and celebration of thanksgiving to everyone who had supported them in the previous years. Now on their 15th year of publication, Cook Magazine continuously thank their loyal readers and supporters. The COOK Magazine Holiday bash with its theme "Frozen: Winter is Coming" also pays tribute to their advertisers, sponsors, media friends, photographers and bloggers. The said event were hosted by Marou Pahati Sarne of DWIZ and COOK Magazine's Advertising Sales Manager, Marlon Aldenese. 

Cook Magazine really had to celebrate a lot because aside from their 15th year in publication, they have also just launched their state-of-the-art Kitchen Studio recently. 

There was an abundance of food that night as all the guests feasted on delightful and gastronomic buffet spreads courtesy of Cook Magazine's generous sponsors and friends. From sweet treats to main courses to the party booze--everything one can imagine as guests partied the night away. 

There were also fun photo booths for wacky photos and mementos to keep. My fellow blogger and I had a blast with our magnetic photo booth pictures. 

The lucky ones went home with lots of awesome prizes including the Grand Prize which is a refrigerator from Whirlpool, a top of the line Technogas stove from Italy, a multi-functional vegetable food cutter by Berghoff Philippines, and a Bosch Kitchen Machine by Häfele were also given away. Nobody left home empty handed as COOK Magazine together with their generous sponsors gave away awesome loot bags filled with grocery goodies. 

COOK awarded plaques to their advertisers, sponsors and columnists, and photographers for their loyal and continued support for the magazine. They are the people who make sure the magazine continues to produce relevant and interesting content. They are very significant to COOK’s tagline of “Connecting Foodies”.
