Town was so crowded! but I spent my Xmas in the comfort of my own house... whipping up some simple dishes and indulge in a lot of cakes which I haven't had for quite a while... cake taste damn good when you have not eaten them for quite some time!
Triple Cheese Pizza, Chicken Vegetable Soup, Water Biscuit, Mussels, Smoked Salmon, Assorted Dips, Beef Ribeye, Strawberries, Salami, Ham, Bacon...
Wolf Blass Shiraz 2003
Chicken Bradwurst with Cheese - This is huge! Actually, one of this thing in my gut already fills me up 80% already...
Chicken + Beef Stew - This was nice! Beef chunks, macaroni, mussels, assorted veg
Cold Dish Black Pepper Mussels with tabasco
Cracker with smoked salmon and assorted dips - This is my favorite! I fnished every single bit of the dip even when the smoked salmon has ran out! However, I really don't know what is in the dips... My guess is that some has tuna in it, and some with prawn or crab roes...
My favourite dip - I think this is some seafood dip... there's a strong hint of prawn...
A balance meal ends with some sweet strawberries and some sinful whip cream simply for aesthetic purpose. lol
and cheers for a better New Year
Fruit Cake from Food Barn - The cake is not those super dense (but still quite dense) kind of fruit cake whereby lots of molases is used, hence this fruit cake taste less sweet (but still generally sweeter than most cakes). Topped with fruits and Pecans soaked richly in rum, giving the cake a wonderful aroma of rum and fruits...
Ben & Jerry new flavour! Cake Batter! Do not expect any chunks in this as you normally would in BnJ ice cream. This new flavor has no chunks at all, but just a very rich and smooth butter-like batter ice cream with swirls of chocolate fudge.
Matcha Swiss Roll from Rive Gauche - This is my favorite cake from the whole series of cakes bought there. It is very light and fluffy, yet the hint of Matcha is just nice... very "xiang", give a very therapeutical effect, very zen... lol. The black black thing is see in the center of the roll, that's Azuki beans, adds another dimension of sweetness to the cake.
Guanaja - I like this too, for it has a bitter sweet to it. The bottom layer is crispy biscuit with layers of chocolate sponges in between. This is supposed to be a hot favourite.
Mango Cake - Refreshing sweet mango slices at the top and bottom, with layers of mango mouss and mango crunch. Everything is really just mango, but mangoes made in different way.
Mont Blanc - The star of this cake is the chestnuts. It has French and Japanese chestnuts in between the layers of sponges soaked with brandy. The top layer of beautiful strokes of cream is chestnut cream. *burp*
hope everyone had a merry xmas and next a good new year ahead!
