Foodfie (Food + Selfie) to win Accor Vouchers and Stays

When I was studying in Australia, I have always found it difficult to take a photo of my food because I thought that it was not common (socially) and by doing so, I would live up to an Asian stereotype. As such, I have mastered the art of skilfully sneaking in a shot while pretending to check my phone when the food arrives. Being back in Asia however, taking a photo of your food is almost customary and one shot per dish is definitely socially acceptable (so long you don't keep the table waiting). From now until 9 March 2015, take a Foodfie (Food + Selfie) while dining at any Accor properties worldwide to win attractive dining vouchers and even free hotel stays!
