Its time to Jolly with a Pandoro

Hooray... Christmas is round the corner. ... and .... I've kicked started a series of dinner parties with one starting at my place.... unfortunately........ I din't managed many good pictures lolol... Too busy eating stuff liao !!!..... The next time I'll let my flatmates do the cooking and I'll take the pictures.....

So.... in place of the dinner pics... I shall present to u how we set up the pandoro





Step 1: remove the cake from its packaging.... Duh....





Step 2: Look for your best serrated knife ( the one with many teeth. aka bread knife). Slice the cake up into 1 inch layers





Step 3: Sprinkle the icing sugar (included in box) onto the top of the cake. Make sure u coat it evenly.

Step 4: Eat with your favourite icecream or whip cream. Our choice for the night was Haagen Daaz (2 Tubs for 4 pounds at your convinient Tesco Superstore. Limited TUBS!! )

And here's my helpful assistants Elne & Jsn. Don't you think they got a very good 夫妻相. I got them to use the cake for as a practice model for their actual wedding cake cutting ceremony lol.

Jsn's Birthday @ 2 Fat Ladies !!!

Hey Hey, This is the first Time I actually feature ppl's faces on this blog. Anyway... We were at 2 fat ladies to celebrate Jsn's 25th Silver Jubillleeeee Birthday !!!. It was meant to be a suprise haha but he turned up before half the crowd arrived. Way to GO Singaporean PUNCTUALITY!!!!


THere was a choice of the pre theatre menu (2 Courses at 16pds or 3 courses at 18pds) or the a la carte menu which had more expensive items.

I can't recall what this was but I suspect it might be Pear, celery and goats’ cheese tart.





Pan seared, hand dived scallops, macleod of stornoway black pudding, cauliflower puree, roast beetroot and sherry dressing. This was available as a starter or main course

Steamed loch etive mussels, white wine and garlic cream. I really like the mussels here. So fresh so good !!!

Prawn Rissoto (White balance fails -_-")





Oven roasted pollack with cabbage, bacon and chervil cream

And here's my dish..... Two fat ladies fish platter. COnsisting of 3 fishes. Red mullet, Coley and ... Seabass... All well done and tasted full of fishy freshness. I just wished the skin was alittle little more crisp.

Roasted veges to accompany the mains. The waitress refilled the bowl.





Rum and raisin milk chocolate pot





Two fats’ trio of creme brulees (kiwi, orange and passionfruit). Basically creme Brulee topped with fruits. Not exactly what I was hoping for.


The star of the night has to be Jsn's Birthday Cake made specially by Elne

This was seriously amazingly good. It was like sponge fingers topped with a raspberry, lychee rose flavoured fruit jam at the based and on topped of that.... a fresh cheesy desert cream... topped up with more raspberries on top and surrounded by more sponge fingers.

Seriously good... You are one lucky man Jsn.
