THE RASA ROSETTA AWARDS 2009
SALSA RESTAURANT
ILLOVO
Dear RASA Members,
I am sure that you will all agree that the celebrations surrounding the RASA ROSETTA Awards dinner hosted at Salsa Restaurant in Illovo last night was a huge rip roaring success and one to be remembered.
A Huge BIG thanks to SALSA restaurant for opening up their home to all the opulent restauranteurs and industry personalities who attended the Gala event.
All were welcomed with tantalizing cocktails sponsored by Liquid Chefs as they waltzed down the red carpet looking absolutely glamorous with none other than PJ Powers to steal the hearts and souls of the entire audience with her breath taking performance.
I would personally like to thank her for entertaining us in such magnificent style with her invigorating performance and her amazing magnetic energetic personality that captivated the audience throughout the night.
We were dazzled by her presence and I have not stopped receiving phone calls to compliment her and the success of the evening.
Furthermore I would like to extend my congratulations to all the RASA ROSETTA Award winners. I am proud to have presented these awards to the nominees and am delighted at the commitment shown towards striving for Service Excellence.
The RASA ROSETTA AWARD is an award of opulence - THE BEST IN CLASS award and it is only given to those few who truly deliver excellence. We recognized these individuals who represent all that the award stands for.
"THE RASA ROSETTA AWARD is an award given to restaurants/individuals that strive for Service Excellence in the Restaurant Industry. It is recognition of the highest honors for service excellence & overall contribution to the upliftment of the restaurant Industry"
I would like to extend my sincere thanks to SAT for their contributions in the promise to promote restaurants in exciting
times that lie ahead as well as conceptualizing and unveiling of our very own RASA welcome man for 2010 log

For use to RASA members for the promotion of all restaurants for 2010 and beyond.
Also for the young energetic DISKI dancers that put us all to shame with their 2010 football Friday moves.
Last but most importantly I would like to thank my staff for their commitment in ensuring the evening was a huge success and for all the extended hours they put into the event, not forgetting to thank all our valuable sponsors for their contributions and commitment to the Association - without your contributions the evening could never have been a success so thank you again for contributing towards the success of this spectacular evening.
