finally halfway through the family-month marathon. its been great, tiring, exhausting, fun all rolled into one. these have been the highlights:
served it with garlic mash and steamed carrots and brocoli
it turned out pretty decent i have to say... only problem is that it didnt taste the same... need to play around with the herb bouquet i think. but definitely something i can repeat :)
i basically spent this day cooking for the family dinner. my dishes were: 2 beer can chicken, roasted veg, sauteed mushrooms, more mash potatoes & sticky date pudding
was really tired by the time dinner rolled around but it was still great coz my aunt made cream of asparagus, beef stew,caesar salad which all were absolutely yummy!
needless to say i was absolutely miserable on thurs at work... but thinking back, im really proud i actually made it in!
very very delicious dishes all finger licking good. everyone just kept on going even though our tummys were definitely stuffed. i actually still think i can still feel the lobster in my tummy
s' fashion show in partnership with cleo
s in the midst of all the other blogshop owners about to do their closing walk :)
g wore her pretty ferragamos while i had on my eames inspired united nudes
just before i left for the show, my little cousin saw my shoe of choice and was sooo cute and said "cece, you have such nice fashionable shoes! no wonder you're going to a fashion show!"
then it was off to l'entrecote on duxton... it was absolutely yummy! i heart their steak and frites :) and their desserts!
only problem is that they dont take reservations - so either be there early or u'd have to gauge when the 2nd seating is. oh and its tiny! everyone's squshed pretty tightly so be prepared to listen in to ur neighbour's conversation
chicken and 40 cloves of garlic
on a whim i decided to try and attempt our favourite dish at les bistrot du sommelier....
it turned out pretty decent i have to say... only problem is that it didnt taste the same... need to play around with the herb bouquet i think. but definitely something i can repeat :)

Mambo @Zouk
after lion king, i find out my darling MJ is only in town for this one evening so where else do little boys go to on a wed night while they are here for such a short time? drag this old girl out on a weeknite to get them the first round of drinks
