A Smile is Worth a Thousand (Dollar) Burger!

Yesterday, a star-studded group of Singapore celebrities flexed their “buns” to build some burgers to raise money for Operation Smile, a non-profit organization of doctors dedicated to helping children with birth deformities.  And what was our job?  To build a bad-ass burger and have it auctioned off to the highest bidder!  The first group of celebrities included Bobby Tonelli from Class 95, Rod Monteiro, Cheryl Miles, and Yours Truly…

We all slaved away and created our very own culinary masterpieces.  Bobby Tonelli dived right into the patty and mashed it up with various other toppings…

…talk about being touched by the hands of a Radio God!

I went about my burger building business and even applied some of my “secret sauce,” which was from a tasty “kong bak bao” lunch earlier.

However, with how much I’m crackin up, I think I think my saliva might have been an additional “secret sauce!”

The next round of stars included celebrity DJ Wayne “KoFlow” and George Young, the hottest thing to hit the shores of Singapore since…Gawd knows Wu!@#$%

Of course, you always gotta have “The Rose amongst the Thorns” with Wong Li Lin exhibiting her amazing food skills, which I have the privilege of knowing very well!

Li Lin wasted no time in letting her fellow celebrity competitors know that she concocted the burger to beat…and even went on to add that all the additional time everyone needed to complete their creations was “an act of desperation!”  Now, that’s a confident women we have here!

But just when you thought you had seen it all, George Young comes out with his own “secret sauce” of peanut butter!  Yep…you heard it right, and he swears you haven’t had the best burger until you slap some of the ole “P” from your mom’s “P&J sandwich” on your burger…

Yay or Nay…what’s your take on that?  If he can get your average person to drop a million bucks, then maybe he’s onto something here that none of us have ever tried, huh?

Next, Wayne “KoFlow” came and conquered with his own smooth burger that’s as cool as his beats and scratches on the turntable…

And not to be left out, Jimmy T definitely exhibited the most concentration and focus outta the entire lot…

Wow.  This actor really knows how to concentrate, and you know he’s more than ready to dive into his next role…even if he’s gotta play a “Man from Beijing!”  FYI…Jimmy T is Japanese American!

All in all, it was a great day for a great cause, and we were each able to garner anywhere from five hundred to one thousand dollars for each burger so thank you once again to all of the winning bidders for their most generous contributions to Operation Smile!

Also, I’d like to congratulation TinyFry’s on opening their first electronics store here in Singapore at Millennia Walk.  If you’re ready to take a walk on the wild side and see just how cool and hip an electronics “concept” store can be, then you definitely gotta check this place out!
