Yummy scrummy, oh my tummy!

Date: 27th August 2010
Location: Friend's house.
Chef: Best Matey, Arghhh.

I have a friend who makes the most amazing food. Every time I go to her place, and praise her to my siblings, they refuse to believe me as I never bring anything back nor take pictures, which is quite unlike me. This time however I got in before we broke into the starters. Alas, I never managed to get the rest of the mains and the desserts, the latter being something OH SO special at that.

But here are the pictures I did manage to bring back.

The Table:

 

And there's more!



My friend made this lovely concoction of Mango and icecream blended together smoothly in a yummy mixture. Loved it! Must try it at home. 

Starters in focus below:





I wish I had taken pics of the rest of the items. There was roast chicken pieces. There were curries! As for desserts, there was the caramel tarts with banana pieces. Admittedly I picked the banaces slice out of mine, heh, and it was yummeh! And she also made this item called an Eton Mess (oh how traditional English! heh).

Except hers had toffee and victorian sponge cake. MMMMM.

Suffice to say, I came back home with a HUGE belly. All win for me then.

A Cake for Me

And yes, it was tasty. 


 Especially with a cup of tea. Mmmm.

Introducing: The Umbaba, a mocktail


Chicken banana wrap



Rare Beef Salad, which we asked the waiter to get the chef to cook again as the rare-ness put us off. Oops.


Avocado and Sweet Potato Tempura, yum yum. The sauce to dip it in was divine to say the least.


Thai Green Chicken Curry. The best Thai Green Curry I have had yet! And I have had quite a few in all sorts of places.
 

Egg fried rice


Food glorious food, 
What is there more handsome?
Gulped, swallowed or chewed,
Still worth a king's ransom! 

I believe in enjoying ones birthday with good food, and good food I had in abundance.
