Fire over the gardens

Imagine, a luxury penthouse apartment overlooking Tay Ho gardens. White tables overflowing with canapes and delicate sandwiches, plates of cakes and snacks. Pims, wine, lots of jolly guests....and firrrre.

Accompanied by djembe beats, tonight we fire twirled in a unique place...the ledge of a tiny balcony, 6 stories up! Our fire display was a great surprise for the guests, and a fun way to create intensity and a splash of color.

Now that we know there is no space too small or too high for us to play, we hope to see more rooftop parties :)

Call or send us a message and invite us to your party!!!

And happy anniversary Roman and Hisui!
