How was your Christmas?

As for me, I shared it with some friends. We started off with some home made shandy, a recipe from Nigella's, followed by many others which I stopped snapping photos of. =) I absolutely adore the glass.

Thought I'll post this up too, our table display.  

Another recipe of Nigella's, Parmesan and Breadcrumbs coated Lamb Cutlets, as well as a 1kg turkey breast at the background. We also had a large bowl of salad which again I thought wasn't significant enough to be photographed. Haha.

For desserts, plum pudding served with brandy custard and vanilla icecream. I just had to make myself an Affogato. The meal lasted us hours, from lunch to dinner with breaks in the middle.

We planned a bit too much as we weren't able to

X build our gingerbread house and decorate it with lollies

X cook our chicken wings

X finish our chips

X make brandied cherries.

But, who wouldn't love amazing times like this? I've

✓played board and card games. 

✓watched a comedy

✓played more games on the Ipad

✓had a quiet rest on the couch. One of us had a nap.

✓listened to Christmas carols. One of us actually sang Christmas carols really loudly at the neighbourhood, I had to run away in embarassment.

✓had bunny ears around the neighbourhood while others had bumble bee ears or reindeer ears and nose.

The list goes on...but all I can say, I have had an amazing day bonding with friends my way. SLACK. clinks glasses with Jin. 

Hope your Christmas has been just as amazing, in your way.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas...

...unfortunately it is hot and sandy in WA without a sign of snow! But the Christmas spirit is definitely in the air! Let's keep it simple and less materialistic. =)

Merry Christmas from all of us at Food Obsession! Have a fabulous Christmas, holiday and a wonderful new year ahead! ^_^

Christmas lunch with the team!

I really have to apologise for the lack of updates recently. It has been an extremely busy and crazy few weeks. This includes random Christmas lunches back to back!

My first work lunch was with the 'family' from work. I say family because I spend who knows how many hours per day with the team and we look forward to this one afternoon every December to unwind and destress.

This year we decided to dine at the Belgian Beer Cafe. What can I say? It was delicious!

There is no better way to kick start the summer with a glass of cold **vodka** lemon and lime bitters!

My colleague and I regretted for not ordering mains that came with hot chips. So we decided to get some on the side anyway.

Yum! We were just taken away by the presentation.

For mains, I had the pan-fried salmon. I rarely order seafood thanks to my pickiness but I did not have any regrets with this one. It did not taste or smell fishy (if you know what I mean). That's my kind of seafood!


In summary, even though it is slightly on the expensive side, I recommend this place if you fancy good quality pub meals.
